The Mets are in town and they are pitching Sid Fernandez (8-11, 2.70).

I am 3 for 15 vs El Sid.

I led off the home half of the 1st by grounding out to Alfredo Griffin at 2nd.

We opened the scoring in the 2nd when Bob Brenly reached on a dropped 3rd strike and then scored on a Denny Walling double.

Giants lead 1-0.

I led off the 3rd for us by striking out.

I made my first defensive play on the 4th, snagging a Kevin Mitchell grounder for the 2nd out.

In the bottom frame Rob Deer walked and later scored on a Brenly double. I came up with two out and the bases loaded and grounded out back to Sid.

Giants lead 2-0.

The Mets got on the board in the 6th when Mitchell doubled home Darryl Strawberry. I took a Hubie Brooks grounder to end the threat.

After Willie struck out his 8th and 9th, I got the final out in the 7th off a Ross Jones grounder.

I led off the bottom half by working a walk to finally reach base. Next came stolen base #95. After Chili Davis walked I stole #96 with one out. Rob Deer them blasted a three run homer.

Mark Davis took the mound for us in the 8th. He allowed a couple of baserunners but got out of it.

I led off the bottom half, now facing Doug Sisk. I dropped one into right for a single. Stolen base #97. I moved to 3rd on a deep fly by Mike Aldrete and scored on a Chili triple. He scored on a Deer sac fly.

I got the 2nd out in the 9th off a Ken Phelps grounder. Mark ended up giving up an RBI double to Jones before striking out pinch hitter Randy Milligan to wrap it up.
