We are in San Diego to take on the Padres.

They are pitching Storm Davis (0-1, 5.40).

The Giants have Bruce Ruffin (0-1, 4.66).

I have done very well against Davis, going 9 for 20.

I led things off by grounding out to Tom Quinlan at 3rd.

We opened the scoring in the 2nd when Robby Thompson scored on a Dale Murphy sac fly.

Giants lead 1-0

Things turned back around in the bottom of the 2nd when Junior Felix scored on a Luis Lopez single. Then Harold Reynold scored on a Quinlan fielder's choice and Ozzie Guile scored on a Darrell Sherman single.

Padres lead 3-1

I came up in the 3rd with Bruce on 2nd. I walked.
We were both left there.

We got one back in the 4th when Dale launched a solo homer.

Padres lead 3-2

They got it back in the bottom half when Reynolds scored on a Lopez sac fly.

Padres lead 4-2

I came up next with one out in the 5th and grounded out to Reynolds at 2nd.

I got the final out in the 6th off a grounder by pinch hitter, Eric Young.

I came up with two out in the 7th, now facing Carlos Diaz. I grounded out to Quinlan again.

Mark Ross took the mound for us in the 7th.

I got the final out in the 8th off a Lopez grounder.

I came up with two out in the 9th, now facing Bob Patterson.
I walked.

Alvin couldn't get on and the game was over. We lost another one.

I went 0 for 3 with two walks.
