Butch Davis was placed on waivers and I was reactivated.
April 18th, 1990
The Dodgers are pitching Mike Witt (0-3, 5.12).
The Giants have Scott Garrelts (2-1, 9.00).
I have gone 13 for 33, or .394, against Witt.
The Dodgers strike in the 1st, with Kent Hrbek and Chili Davis scoring on a Gene Larkin single.
Dodgers lead 2-0
I lead off for our side. I grounded out right back to Witt.
I came up with two out in the 3rd and Scott on 1st.
Scott moved to 2nd on a wild pitch and then scored on my single!
I was caught stealing. Again.
What is going on?
Dodgers lead 2-1
I came up next in the 6th, with one out and Tim Naehring on 2nd. Tim went to 3rd on a wild pitch and then I walked.
Caught stealing. Again.
Tim scored on an error.
Game tied 2-2
With two on and one out in the 7th, Jim gave the ball to Mark Davis.
He got out of the jam.
In the 8th, Robby Thompson scored on a pinch hit double by Rob Deer.
I came up with Rob on 2nd and Tim on 3rd. Steve Farr was on the mound.
RBI single! Rob stopped at 3rd.
Rob scored on a sac fly by Alvin Davis.
Stolen base #8. (8 for 12...)
With two out I scored on a Harold Baines single.
Giants lead 6-2
Mark Williamson came in to pitch the 9th for us.
I caught a Hrbek pop for the 2nd out.
We took the game.
I went 2 for 3 with a pair of singles, a walk, a run scored, two RBI, a stolen base, and a caught stealing.
Tomorrow is an off-day and then we play in San Diego.
