After heartbreaker yesterday, we take own eh Padres again.

They are pitching Bryn Smith (11-3, 2.44).

The Giants have Roy Smith (2-0, 3.38).

I have not done great against Smith, going 9 for 46, or .196.

I led off the home half by flying out to Junior Felix in centre.

I took care of an Eric Young grounder for the 3rd out in the 2nd.

I fielded a Smith sac bunt for the 1st out in the 3rd.

I led off the b bottom of the 4th. We still didn't have a hit.
I didn't change, that, grounding out to Ready at 1st.
Ryan Klesko DID change it, though, as he blasted a solo homer.

Giants lead 1-0

I came up in the 6th, with one out and Greg Myers on 2nd.
They gave me an intentional walk.
In front of the guy who hit a home run last time up.
It worked, however. We were left.

The Padres tied it up in the 8th when pinch hitter Harold Reynolds scored on a Junior Felix single.

Jim went to Mark Davis with two out and two on. He got the out.

Game tied 1-1

I came up in the 8th with two out, Greg on 1st, and Gregory Sillivent pitching.
I grounded out to Ozzie Guillen at short.

Bobby Thigpen took the ball for us in the 9th.
I handled an Eric Young grounder for the 2nd out.
I did the same to pinch hitter Greg Bailey of the 3rd out.

We went to extras but Craig Grebeck gave us the pinch hit single, scoring Dale Murphy for the walk-off, 2-1 win.

I went 0 for 3 with a walk.

We heard after the game that one o four prospects, Mark Berry, was named MVP of the AA All-Star Game.
