We are in Montreal!

It is good to be back in Canada!

We have Dennis Eckersley (7-2, 2.09) on the mound.
The Expos are going with Scott Bankhead (2-7, 4.55).

I am 0 for 2 vs Bankhead.

I led off the game by making it 0 for 3. Strike out.

I came up in the 3rd with one out and Lee Mazzilli on 1st. I struck out again.
Things got better after that.
Chris Brown singled and then Chili Davis smacked a three-run homer. Rob Deer singled and then scored on a Mike Aldrete double.

Giants lead 4-0.

I came up in the 5th with one out and struck out for a 3rd straight time!

I came up in the 7th with two out and lined out to Dwight Evans in right. At least I didn't strike out, I guess.

Despite Eck pitching a shut out, Nestor lifted him in the 8th. Jeff Robinson came in with one out and one on. I made my first defensive play when he came in as Thomas Howard hit it to me for a fielder's choice. Jeff got all five outs he needed to end the game and we shut out the Expos, 4-0.

Terrible day for me at the plate, but good day for the team.

We are now 33-17.
