Today the Mets are pitching Ron Darling (8-9, 2.82).

The Giants are going with Mark Grant (0-3, 6.16).

Sounds like a bad match-up for us.

I have gone 1 for 15 vs Darling.

The Mets struck early. I started a Priske - Thompson - Walling double play in the top of the 1st to get Alfredo Griffin and Leon Durham, but Lenny Dykstra scored on the play.

Mets lead 1-0.

I led off the bottom half by striking out.

They struck again in the 3rd when Dykstra singled home Ross Jones. I got the 2nd out, taking a Griffin grounder.

Mets lead 2-0.

I led off our half of the 4th by grounding out to Durham at 1st.
We got on the board that inning when Mike Aldrete scored on a Rob Deer single.

Mets lead 2-1.

I got the 1st out in the 5th, snagging a Dave Cochrane pop up.

I came up in the bottom frame with two out, Bob Brenly on 2nd and Mark Grant on 1st. I grounded out to Durham again.

In the 6th Darryl Strawberry smacked one over the centre field wall with a man on.

Mets lead 4-1.

Mike Perez took over with one out in the 7th. He got his two and then we took over.

With one out Robby Thompson smacked a solo homer. That seemed to charge the guys up. Bob Brenly followed with a double.
Rick Aguilera relieved Darling.
He got the 2nd out but then walked pinch hitter Ben Oglivie.
I came up and connected with an RBI single!
Mike Aldrete put the capper on it with a huge three-run homer.

Giants lead 6-4.

Scott Garrelts came it to pitch the 8th. He walked the first man he saw but then got the next six out to pick up the save.

I went 1 for 4 with an RBI single and a run scored.

Big news down in Everett. Rookie-ball pitcher Al Leiter threw a no-hitter while striking out NINETEEN.

When is he making the team?
