June 9th, 1987

It is the middle game agains Cincinnati and the Reds are pitching Freddie Toliver (0-1, 3.00).

The Giants are going with Dave Miller (0-0, 11.25).

None of us have face Toliver. Obviously we are hoping for a better game from Dave.

I led off the game by fouling out to Will Clark at 1st.

I got the first out in the bottom half, grabbing a Claudell Washington pop.

We opened the scoring in the 2nd when Rob Deer scored on a John Rabb single.

Giants lead 1-0

I led off the 3rd by striking out.

The Reds struck in the 3rd when Clark smashed a three-run homer.

Reds lead 3-1

I came up with one out in the 5th and flew out to Eric Davis in centre.
We got another run that frame with Mike Aldrete scored on a Chili Davis double.

Reds lead 3-2

John Rabb led off the 7th with a solo homer to tie the game! I came up with one out and hit one to deep short which I outran for an infield single. Mike then singled and I was thrown out trying to make it to 3rd.

Game tied 3-3

I came up in the 9th with none out, John on 2nd, and pinch hitter Alan Cockrell on 1st. John Franco was pitching. I hit an infield fly.
John and Alan tried for a double steam and Tim McIntosh threw it away, allowing John to score!

Giants lead 4-3

Dennie Eckersley came in to close things out. I got the 2nd out for him off an Al Newman grounder. Eck got one more and he got the save and we got the win.

I went 1 for 5 with a single.
