It is our last day in Philadelphia before we head to Canada. The Phillies are pitching Kevin Gross (4-2, 2.06). The Giants are going with Eric Show (5-3, 2.63).

I have gone 6 for 35, .171, against Gross.

I opened the game by putting one into the right field corner for a double. With one out I picked up stolen base #33. I then scored on a Chili Davis single. Chili later scored on a Robby Thompson single.

Giants lead 2-0

I led off the 3rd by taking a four pitch walk. Stolen base #34. I advanced to 3rd on a Mike Aldrete groundout. Then Chili flew out to left and I was thrown out trying to score.

Rob Deer led off the 4th with a home run.

Giants lead 3-0

I got the 1st out in the bottom half off a Bo Jackson fielder's choice ball. I got the 2nd out off a Walt Weiss fielder's choice. Jackson ended up scoring on a Ken Oberkfell single.

Giants lead 3-1

I led off the 5th by grounding out to Weiss at short.

I got the last out in the 6th, taking a grounder from Kenny O.

I got out #2 in the 7th, off a Gross grounder.

I led off the 8th with an easy grounder to Alfredo Griffin at 2nd.

Scott Garrelts relieved for us in the 8th.
I got the 3rd out for him off a Weiss grounder.

In the 9th Robby scored on a triple by Brian Giles.

Giants lead 4-1

Mark Davis came in to try to close the door.
Kenny O scored on a Tim Raines single. The Phillies loaded them up after that, but Mark struck out the last two to end the threat.

I went 1 for 3 with a double, a walk, a run scored, and two stolen bases.

Another swap after that with Alan Cockrell going back to Phoenix and Greg Litton coming up. Also, Brad Wellman cleared waivers and is with Phoenix again.

We are off to Montreal.
