The fist game of the double header went badly. Hopefully we can salvage a split.

The Reds are pitching Frank Castillo (5-6, 4.25).

The Giants have Scott Garrelts (12-5, 4.61).

I have gone 6 for 26, or .231, including a home run, against Castillo.

I am back to hitting sixth.

I came up with one out in the 2nd and worked a walk.
Stolen base #99. Then the big stolen base #100!
I scored on a Tim Naehring single.

Giants lead 1-0

In the 3rd Robby Thompson scored on a Harold Baines groundout.
I came up with two out, Alvin Davis on 3rd, and Ryan Klesko on 1st.
I grounded out.

Giants lead 2-0

I came up next with two out in the 6th and struck out.

Tim led off the 7th with a home run.

Giants lead 3-0

I took care of a Carlos Baerga grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 7th.

I came up in the 8th with two out, Ruben Sierra on 1st, and John Candelaria pitching. I grounded out to Dave Staton at 3rd.

Mark Williamson took over on the mound in the 8th, while Rob Deer replaced Ruben in the OF on a double switch.

In the 9th we had another double sixth as Dale Murphy took over for Harold and Bobby Thigpen came in to get the save.
I got the first out for him off another Baerga grounder.
He need up giving up a walk but that was it and we had the shutout win.

I went 0 for 3 with a walk, a run scored, and two stolen bases, taking me to 100!
