May 29th, 1986

On the road facing the Phillies behind Mike Maddux (1-1, 1.93).

The Giants are going with Eric King (3-1, 2.32). We have lost 4 in a row.

I am 0 for 3 vs Maddux.

I led off the game by grounding out to Craig Reynolds at short.
In the end, though, all nine of our batters came to the plate and we scored three. Mike Aldrete singled home Chris Brown. Kenny Oberkfell walked home Chili Davis. Lee Mazzilli walked home Rob Deer.

Maddux walked home TWO runs.

Giants lead 3-0.

Tim Raines started off their half by grounding out to me.

I led off the 2nd by hitting one into right for a single. I moved to 2nd on a wild pitch. With one out I stole 3rd for stolen base #38. Chili put one into the seats in right for a two-run homer.

Giants lead 5-0.

Eric had some control problems of his own, walking three in the 2nd, but it didn't turn into any runs.

The Phils did score in the 3rd when Juan Samuel tripled home Raines. Samuel tried to score on a Mike Schmidt fly ball but Lee Mazzilli turned it into a catch and throw double play!

Giants lead 5-1.

I led off the 4th by flying out to Von Hayes in centre.

In the bottom half Darren Daulton smacked a two-run dinger.
Eric didn't make it out of the 4th, despite being in line for the win at that time. Curt Brown came in with one out and Bo Jackson on 2nd. Raines grounded out to me for the 2nd out. The inherited run crossed on a Samuel single. The Phillies tied it up with Hayes singled home Samuel from 2nd.

Game tied 5-5.

We got the lead back in the 6th when Kenny O singled home Rob Deer.

Giants lead 6-5.

I got the 2nd out in the bottom half, catching a Daulton pop.

I came up with one out in the 6th, now facing Clint Jenkins. I flew out to Hayes again.

Pat Perry came in to pitch for us in the 6th. I got the 1st out for him, handling a Raines grounder for the 3rd time today.

I came up in the 8th with one out and Kenny O on 2nd and pinch hitter Ben Oglivie on 1st. Bob McClure was pitching. I lined out to Reynolds at short.

Scott Garrelts came in to pitch for us in the 8th.

In the 9th, with two men on base, I grabbed a Reynolds grounder and took it unassisted to 1st to get Reggie Jackson for the 3rd out.

The losing streak is over as we won 6-5!

We are 30-16.

I went 1 for 5 with a run scored and a stolen base.

The Reds were inactive so we trail by 1.5.

Tomorrow we are in New York to face the Mets!
