September 14th, 1986

Today the Braves are pitching Duane Ward (0-0, 4.15).

The Giants are using Bruce Ruffin (13-7, 3.24).

I have only faced Ward a couple of times and am 0 for 2.

I led off the home side by grounding out to Ron Oester at 2nd.

Atlanta scored in the 2nd - Ron Cey crossing on a Gerald Perry sac fly.

Braves lead 1-0.

I came up with one out in the 3rd and grounded out to Gary Sheffield at short.
After that Kenny Oberkfell put one in the seats to tie the game.

Game tied 1-1.

I led off in the 6th and flew out to Perry in left.

We took the lead in the 7th when Chili Davis scored on a Denny Walling single.

Giants lead 2-1.

Mark Davis took the mound for us in the 8th.
I got the 1st out for him, handling a Tommy Thompson grounder.

I led off our half of that inning, now facing Brian Fisher. I dropped one in left for a single. Stolen base #123. I moved to 3rd on a Kenny O fly ball. I scored on a Mike Aldrete single. Chili then smacked a two run homer.

Giants lead 5-1.

I got the 2nd out in the 9th, of a grounder by Andres Galarraga. Mark struck out Key and we had the win.

I went 1 for 4 with a single, a stolen base, and a run scored.

Tomorrow is a travel day. We are heading down the coast to San Diego.
