June 19th, 1986

Still down at Jack Murphy. The Padres are pitching Eric Show (3-8, 3.89).
The Giants are pitching Willie Fraser (6-2, 3.50).

I am a big fat 0 for 18 vs Show.

I kicked off the game by making it 0 for 19. Strike out.

San Diego started scoring before they even made an out as Tony Gwynn hit an RBI double. Then Carmelo Martinez scored on a Kevin McReynolds groundout. Darrell Miller capped it with a two run homer... or so we thought. Juan Beniquez walked and was knocked it by a Mark Wasinger double.

5-0 Padres.

We got some back in the 2nd when Kenny Oberkfell doubled home Lee Mazzilli and then scored himself on a John Rabb single.

Padres lead 5-2.

In the bottom half I started a Priske - Oberkfell - Deer double play to get John Kruk and Martinez.

I led off the 3rd by hitting a weak fly to McReynolds in centre. Chris Brown tripled behind me and scored on a Child Davis grounder.

Padres lead 5-3.

In the 4th Lee scored on an RBI single by Kenny O to get us even closer!

Padres lead 5-4.

I led off the 5th by grounding out to Wasinger at short.

I got the 3rd out in the home half off a Harold Reynolds grounder with a man on 3rd.

In the 6th Lee scored on a Kenny O single again, to tie the game!

Game tied 5-5.

I came up int he 7th with none out and pinch hitter Robby Thompson on 1st. Jerry Reuss was now pitching. I grounded to Wasinger again, but only into a fielder's choice, putting me on 1st. That was a base running upgrade as I quickly picked up stolen base #51 AND #52. I then scored on Chris Brown reached on a Wasinger error. We had the lead!

Giants lead 6-5.

Jeff Robinson took the mound for us that inning.

I came up with one out in the 9th. Lance McCullers was on the mound. I finally figured it out and singled into right. Stolen base #53! I then tried for #54 but no! I was thrown out for the 7th time this season!

Scott Garrelts came it to close things out for us. He gave up a two out walk but that was in and he raised his league leading save total to 23.

I went 1 for 5 and stole 3 bags.

We are 41-24 but trail the uber-hot Dodgers by 4.5 games.

Tomorrow we are home to face the Astros.
