The Giants are pitching Doyle Alexander (0-1, 5.13) vs the Padres and Eric King (1-0, 1.80).

I am 1 for 5 vs Eric.

I led off the game by flying out to John Kruk in deep centre.

I next led off the 3rd by striking out.

I came up in the 6th with one out and John Rabb on 2nd. King unloaded a wild pitch, allowing John to go to 3rd. I snuck one through the left side for our first hit of the game, and an RBI to boot! With two out I took 2nd on an errant pick-off attempt by King. I scored on a Chili Davis single.

Giants lead 2-0

I made my first defensive play in the 6th, and it was a good one! I took a Kruk grounder for the 1st out on a tough play.

I took a Darrell Miller grounder for the 2nd out in the 7th.

I led off the 9th, now facing Alejandro Pena, with a strike out.

We got an insurance run in the 9th when Rob Deer scored on a Rabb single.

Giants lead 3-0

I got the 2nd out in the bottom of the 9th off a Carmelo Martinez grounder.

Doyle ended up with the complete game shut out!

I went 1 for 4 with a single, RBI, and run scored... plus a great play on defense. Good day.

We are tied with the Reds for 1st in our division.
