September 10th, 1986

The Reds are in town and pitching Jay Tibbs (10-9, 3.42).

The Giants are pitching Eric Show (9-13, 3.45).

I like facing Tibbs. I have gone 11 for 24 against him.

They got a lead off single but a nice Thompson - Priske - Walling double play fixed that.

I led off the home half by hitting one to the left field wall for a double. I moved to 3rd on a grounder by Robby Thompson and scored on a grounder by Mike Aldrete.

Giants lead 1-0.

In the 2nd Scott Bradley hit his 2nd dinger of the year.

Giants lead 2-0.

I led off in the 3rd by grounding out to Al Newman at 3rd.

I got the 1st out in the 4th, handling a Ryne Sandberg grounder. The Reds scored when Eric Davis crossed on a Kal Daniels sac fly.

Giants lead 2-1.

I led off again in the 5th. I grounded one to Sandberg at 2nd but he dropped it, allowing me to reach on his error. I went to 2nd on a sac bunt by Robby. I stole 3rd for stolen base #121. I scored on an Aldrete grounder. Chili Davis followed with a solo homer.

Giants lead 4-1.

Will Clark led off the 6th with a home run.

Giants lead 4-2.

I came up with one out in the 7th and grounded out to Kurt Stillwell at short.
Jay Tibbs left the game after that. Apparently he hurt his arm.

Eric gave up a one out single in the 8th and Nestor went to the pen, brining in the stopper, Scott Garrelts.

In the bottom half Aldrete scored on a Denny Walling double.

Giants lead 5-2.

The Reds scored in the 9th, with a two our double by Newman scoring Stillwell. Then Dwight Evans singled, putting the potential tying run on base. Clark grounded out and it was over.

Giants win 5-3.

I went 1 for 4 with a double, 2 runs scored, and a stolen base.

I am hitting .244 on the year.
