Today the Giants are pitching Eric Show against his former team, the Padres, and Dave Dravecky.

I led off the game by taking a pitch to the right hand. It stung and the trainer checked it out, but I was okay.
With one out, I stole 2nd AND 3rd. I scored on a Child Davis single.
Dravecky ended up loaded the bases and walking Phil Ouellette to score Chili.

Giants lead 2-0.

I came up with two out in the 2nd and struck out.

I made my first play that inning, grabbing a Derek Bell grounder. Carmelo Martinez scored on the play.

Giants lead 2-1

I got the last out in the 3rd, catching a Kevin McReynolds pop.

I came up in the 5th with none out and Scott Bradley on 1st. Goose Gossage was pitching. I struck out again.
Robby Thompson singled behind me and then Rob Deer tripled, scoring two.

Giants lead 4-1.

Dennis Eckersley took over on the mound for us in the 5th. I got the 2nd out for him, taking a Gossage grounder.

In the 6th Tony Gwynn hit a solo homer.

Giants lead 4-2

I was lifted for a pinch hitter in the 7th.

The Padres came back to tie it up but we won 7-6 in 10.
