March 19th, 1987
The Giants (Terry Mulholland) were taking on the Cubs (Jeff Robinson).
I got the start.
I led off the home side by grounding out to Juan Beniquez at 3rd. Chris Brown followed me with a solo homer.
Giants lead 1-0.
I got the 1st out in the 2nd by handling a grounder by Mel Hall.
I came up with two out in the 2nd and Phil Ouellette standing on 2nd. I flew out to Hall in left.
We scored a couple in the 3rd when Chris scored on a Rob Deer single and then when Chili Davis scored on a Robby Thompson sac fly.
Giants lead 3-0
I came up in the 4th with one out and Jessie Reid on 1st. Jessie was thrown out trying to steal 2nd with me at the plate. I then flew out to Marvell Wynne in right.
Mike Perez took over pitching for us after that.
In the 6th both Deer and Ouellette homered. I was lifted for a pinch hitter that inning.
We won 5-2.
I am having a pretty bad spring training. I am hitting .152
