Today the Giants (Willie Fraser) are taking on the Cardinals (Greg Mathews).
I led off the game by taking a walk. I went to 2nd on a scratch hit by Chris Brown. I stole 3rd. A strike out and a double play left me there.
The Cards score din the bottom half when Vince Coleman crossed on an Andy Van Slyke single.
Cardinals lead 1-0
In the 2nd I came up with two out and Alan Cockrell on 3rd and John Rabb on 2nd. I flew out to right.
We tied it up in the 3rd when Chris scored on a Bob Brenly single.
Game tied 1-1
I got the 1st out int he bottom half catching a Coleman pop. Tom Herr scored on a Van Slyke double. I took a Bill Buckner grounder for the 3rd out.

We had a big 5th when Steve Stanicek belted a three-run homer!
