May 27th, 1990

Game three in Pittsburgh, trying to keep our streak going.

Now with me, though, as I am getting the day off.

Down 1-0, I came in as a pinch hitter in the 8th with two out. I walked against Rick Reed but was then caught trying to steal.

Mark Williamson took over for John Burkett in the bottom of the 8th. I stayed in to play 3rd.

With the game on the line in the top of the 9th, Joel Chimelis reached on a leadoff double and then scored on a Ryan Klesko single, tying the game. Ryan later scored on a Ruben Sierra single.

Giants lead 2-1

Bobby Thigpen came in for the save opportunity.
The first three batters got three singles, loading the bases.
Scott Bryant then hit a two run single for the walk-off and a disastrous blown save for Bobby.

Our win streak is done.

Just a walk and a caught stealing for me.

On our way to Chicago we found out that Ruben Sierra was named the NL Player of the Week!
