My next start came on September 29 in Stockton. There were just 8 games left in the season. I would probably get one more start before going home.
It pretty much looked like the California League Championship would come down to the San Jose Bees and the Bakersfield Dodgers.
I hate the Dodgers.
I had no intention of sticking around to watch the playoffs. I was going home and putting this miserable season behind me.
In the majors, the Dodgers and Expos had clinched again.
Man, I really hate the Dodgers!
The Red Sox had won the AL East.
The AL West was still a 4 team race, although the Royals were down to 1 in their elimination number. The Twins and Mariners were tied for first and the Athletics were 3 games back with 7 to play.
I got pounded again.

We lost 9-1.
In my last 5 starts, we had scored a grand total of 5 runs.
My last start of the season was even worse.

And we lost 9-2.
To Bakersfield.
To the blankety blank blank blank Dodgers!
My final line for 1985:
2-18, 7.38 ERA, 128.0 IP, 89 BB, 41 K
Our final record was 41-102.
51.5 games out of first.
