April 19th, 1986

Today we are going with Mark Grant (0-0, 4.91).
The Padres are using Mark Langston (1-1, 2.51).

I have never faced him.

The Padres have lost nine in a row. We are trying to make it ten.

I led off the bottom half of the 1st by working a walk. Ben Oglivie made the most of his first at-bat as a Giants and shot on through for a single. I went to 2nd. Chili Davis doubled and I crossed. Later Oglivie scored on a Mike Aldrete sac fly.

Giants lead 2-0.

I came up in the 2nd with two out and Kenny Oberkfell on 2nd. I legged out an infield hit, moving Kenny up a bag. That's all we got.

I made the 3rd out in the top of the 3rd, taking a Kevin McReynolds grounder to end things.

In the 4th I started a Priske - Thompson - Aldrete double play to get Juan Beniquez and Ozzie Guillen, to save a run and end the inning.

In the bottom half I came up with Robby Thompson on 2nd and two out. I flew out to John Kruk in left.

I got the 3rd out in the 6th, off a pinch hit Frank White grounder.

In the bottom half I came up with pinch hitter Lee Mazzilli on 1st and one out. Jerry Reuss was pitching. I struck out.

Mark Davis took over on the mound for us in the 7th. I got the 3rd out for him, retiring McReynolds on a grounder with a man on 3rd.

I came up in the 8th with two out and Robby on 1st. I hit one into centre for a single, moving Robby to 3rd.We stopped there.

Jeff Robinson came into to close out the 9th! (I guess Scott needed a day off.)
That didn't got the way we would hope as Guillen led off with a triple, followed by a Carmelo Martinez pinch hit double. Jeff got the next two out but then Tony Gwynn singled and Martinez scored, tying the game.

Game tied 2-2.

It ended up going to extras. Pat Perry took the mound for us in the 10th.

I came up in the bottom half with two out and facing Goose Gossage. I flew out to Gwynn in right.

Willie Fraser received for us to kick off the 12th.

I got a big chance in the bottom half. I came up with one out and Brad Wellman on 3rd and Robby Thompson on 2nd. My chance to be a hero... was curtailed by Lance McCullers giving me the intentional pass. John Rabb came up with the bases loaded and McCullers threw a wild pitch on a 1-0 count, scoring Wellman and giving us the walk-off win!

I went 2 for 5 with a pair of walks! My average was now up to .114!

We have won three in a row!
