March 5th, 1987
We are facing LaMarr Hoyt and the Phillies. Terry Mulholland is going for the Giants.
I led off the game by flying out to Tim Raines in left.
I got the 1st out in the bottom half, grabbing a Juan Samuel grounder.
I then got the 1st out in the 2nd as well, handling a Dwight Evans grounder. The Phils did open the scoring that frame when Bo Jackson scored from 2nd on a Ray Knight single.
Phillies lead 1-0.
I led off the 3rd by popping out to Juan Samuel at 2nd.
For the 3rd straight inning, I got the 1st guy out - this time it was a Ken Jackson grounder.
We tied it up in the 4th when Bob Brenly scored from 2nd on an Alan Cockrell double. I grounded out to end the inning.
Game is tied 1-1.
Terry came out o the game after the 4th, as expected, but he was complaining up a problem with his back. Hopefully it isn't serious.
Mark Clear took over in the 5th. He pitched one and then Pat Perry took over. He gave up two hits out of the three batter he faced and then Nestor went to Frank Williams.
I left the game in the 7th.
We ended up losing 6-2.
I went 0 for 3.
