March 1st, 1988

The Giants have Rick Sutcliffe facing the Expos and Scott Bankhead.

I led off the bottom of the 1st by grounding out to Bankhead.

I next came up with one out in the 3rd and grounded out to Pedro Guerrero at 1st.

Rick didn't give up any hits until the 4th, but then he gave up three straight singles, to score Guerrero.

Expos lead 1-0

Scott Garrelts takes over to start the 5th. Mike Devereaux scored on a Shane Mack sac fly.

Expos lead 2-0

I came up in the 5th with one out and Brian Giles on 1st. Mark Tindall was on the mound. I hit it to Chris Sabo at 3rd for a fielder's choice. More concerning is the collision of Giles at 2nd. They took him out of the game for precautionary measures. Hopefully he is just shaken up.
Mike Aldrete walks, moving me to 2nd. We are left.

We get word that Brian has a sore elbow and it shouldn't have any lasting issues.

In the 6th Ruben Sierra doubles and scores on a Robby Thompson single.

Expos lead 2-1

I am lifted for a pinch hitter in the 7th.

We managed to tie it up in the 8th but gave up two runs in the 9th for a 4-2 loss.

I went 0 for 3.
