March 12th, 1987
The Giants have Terry Mulholland facing Pascual Perez and the Mets.
I am starting today.
I led off the home side vs Perez by striking out.
The Mets scored in the 2nd when Ross Jones crossed on a Stan Jefferson single. I took a Gerald Young grounder to end the frame.
Mets lead 1-0.
We got a Thompson - Priske - Aldrete double play int he 3rd, but Wally Backman scored on it.
Mets lead 2-0.
I came up with one out in the 3rd and grounded out to Hubie Brooks at short.
Mark Clear took over for us in the 5th.
That inning I came up with two out and Eddie Milner on 2nd. Jesse Orosco was pitching. Eddie... believe it or not... stole home.
I singled then moved to 3rd on a hit & run single by Mike Aldrete. We were left.
Mets lead 2-1
In the 6th we changed thing sup with a Priske - Thompson - Aldrete double play.
I was lifted in the 6th but it was during a 4 run inning for the good guys.
We won 5-2.
