It is the last day of the road trip, and it has been a long one.

The Phillies are pitching Dave Stewart (4-1, 2.98).

The Giants have Scott Garrelts (4-2, 4.98).

Stewart just came over from the AL this year and I haven't faced him yet.

I started things by lining out to Garry Templeton at short.

The Phillies struck first when Von Hayes scored on the 1st off a Darrin Fletcher double.

Phillies lead 1-0

Harold Baines tied it up in the 2nd with a solo homer.

Game tied 1-1

They got it right back in the bottom half when Jose Vizcaino scored on a Hayes single.
Randy Milligan followed with a three-run blast.
Bo Jackson made it back-to-back.

With a man on and two out, Jim brought in Rod Nichols.

Phillies lead 6-1

I came up with one out in the 3rd and grounded out to Finken at 3rd.

In the 4th, Jackson homered again - a two-run shot this time.

Phillies lead 8-1

I came up in the 5th with Rod on 1st. I walked.
We never got anything out of it.

I came up in the 7th with two out and Alan Cockrell on 2nd. I flew out to Scott Pose in centre.

With two men on and one out in the 7th, Jim went to Mark Ross.
Both runners scored on a Templeton double.

Phillies lead 10-1

It never got better than that.

This season has been painful.

I went 0 for 3 with a walk.

Time to head home... to face the Mets.
