Today the Giants are pitching Eric Show (2-4, 5.29) against the Expos and Bryan Clutterbuck (0-4, 12.71).

That ERA is not a misprint.

I have only faced him once, going 0 for 1.

I opened the game by flying out to Thomas Howard in centre.
We scored that inning when Mike Aldrete crossed on a Steve Stanicek double.

Giants lead 1-0

They got it back right away when Jose Oquendo led off with a homer.
I got the 2nd out off a Pedro Guerrero grounder.

Game tied 1-1

Bobby Grich led off the 3rd with a no-doubter to right.
I came up with one out and grounded out to Tim Flannery at 2nd.

Giants lead 2-1

We got Eric out of a jam that inning with a Grich - Priske - Aldrete double play to get Oquendo and Keith Moreland.

I got the last out in the 4th off a Kenny Oberkfell grounder.

I came up with two out in the 5th and grounded out to Flannery again.

In the 6th Steve smashed a two run homer.

Giants lead 4-1

I caught an Oquendo pop for the 1st out in the bottom half.

I came up in the 7th with two out and Bobby on 2nd. I grounded out to Kenny O at 3rd.

In the home half we got a nice Aldrete - Priske - Aldrete double play to get Larry Parrish and Kenny.

In the 8th Steve and Rob Deer scored on a Chris Brown single.

Giants lead 6-1

Mark McLemore pinch hit for Montreal and got an RBI fielder's choice, scoring Flannery.

Giants lead 6-2

I came up with one out in the 9th and David Lee on the mound. I lined one into left centre for a single. Stolen base #40. I scored on a single by Mikey. Later he scored on a single by Steve and then HE scored on a single by Rob.

Giants lead 9-2

Frank Williams came in for the 9th. I caught a Larry Parrish pop for the 2nd out. The Expos did not manage a base runner.

I went 1 for 5 with a single and a stolen base.

Steve Stanicek was named the top performer of the day by ESPN. He went 4 for 4 with a home run and 4 RBI.

Tomorrow is a travel day as we head to Philadelphia.

We heard on the off day that Alan Cockrell was back and Score Bradley is heading down to Phoenix.
