Today is our first post-elimination and post-Brenly game. The Dodgers are pitching Bob Welch (14-10, 2.52).

I led off the home half of the game by flying out to Mike Marshall in right.

I made my first defensive play on the first batter on the 2nd, taking a Marshall grounder for the out. Sid Bream followed it with a solo homer. I then caught a Tim Wallach pop for the 2nd out.

Benito Santiago led off the 3rd with another solo shot.
