Today the Giants are pitching Eric Show (10-14, 3.34).

The Braves have Pascual Perez (6-12, 3.75).

I have gone 3 for 16 against Perez.

I led off this afternoon game by putting one into centre field for a single. Stolen base #128. With one out, stolen base #129. I scored on a Chili Davis sac fly.

Giants lead 1-0.

The Braves got two hit before I made the first out, off a Ron Oester grounder. Gary Sheffield scored on the play. With two out Milt Thompson scored on a Ron Cey double. I caught a Claudell Washington pop up to end it.

Braves lead 2-1.

I got a Sheffield grounder for the 2nd out - a fielder's choice, in the 2nd.

I led off the 3rd by grounding out to Oester at 2nd.

I got a Andres Galarraga grounder for the 2nd out in the bottom half.

In the 4th Robby Thompson smacked a solo shot to tie things up.

Game tied 2-2.

I got the 2nd out in they half, off a Joel Youngblood grounder.

I led off the 5th by striking out.

In the 6th I got the 2nd out again - this time off a Cey grounder. The Braves got the lead back when Galarraga scored on aYoungblood single.

Braves lead 3-2.

Jeff Robinson relieved for us in the 7th.

I led off the 8th, now facing Ken Dayley. I grounded out to Sheffield at short.

I got the 2nd out off a Galarraga grounder.

In the 9th, game on the line, Rob Deer launched a solo homer to tie it up!

Game tied 3-3.

Scott Garrelts took over pitching, trying to send us to extras.
Things got tough and the Braves had the base loaded but I handled a Milt Thompson grounder to send us to the 10th.

I came up with out out and Bob Brenly on 1st. Brian Fisher was brought in to face me. I hit one into the right field corner, moving Bob to 3rd on my double. Mike Aldrete flew out to centre and Bob... was thrown out trying to score.

Mark Davis came in to pitch for us, he got it down,s ending us to the 11th.

And what an inning it was! Chili Davis and Robby Thompson scored on a Kenny Oberkfell double!

Giants lead 5-3.

Pat Perry came in to close it down. Three outs later, we had the game.

I went 2 for 5 with a single, a double, a run scored, and two stolen bases.

We are heading to Cincinnati.
