July 8th, 1989

Today the Cardinals are pitching Bill Fultz (3-9, 4.80).

The Giants have Scott Sanderson (5-6, 3.53).

Fultz is a rookie and this is our first time seeing him.

My first time facing him also opened the game and I grounded out to Scott Fletcher at short.

We opened the scoring in the 2nd when Alan Cockrell scored on a Steve Stanicek double.

Giants lead 1-0

In the bottom of the 2nd we turned a Thompson - Priske - Hernandez double play to get Oddibe McDowell and Terry Pendleton to end the inning.

I led off the 3rd by hitting one up the middle for a single.
With one out, stolen base #67.
I was left there.

I took care of a Mike Brown grounder for the 2nd out in the bottom half.

In the 5th Alan scored on a groundout by Steve.

Giants lead 2-0

I took care of a Mike Marshall grounder for the last out in the 4th.

I led off the 5th by grounding out to Fletcher again.

In the bottom of the 5th, McDowell hit a lead off homer to put the Cards on the board.
We then turned a Thompson - Priske - Hernandez double play to get Pendleton and Fletcher.

Giants lead 2-1

I came up in the 7th with one out and Steve on 1st.
I popped out to Fletcher.

In the 8th we got a couple more as Rob Deer scored on a Ruben Sierra single. Later Ruben scored on a double by Steve.

Giants lead 4-1

I took care of a Ruben Amaro grounder for the last out in the 8th.

I led off the 9th, now facing Tim Crews. I flew out to McDowell in centre.

Scott ended up with at the complete game win.

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