We lost yesterday but we are ready to beat the Padres today!

San Diego is pitching Ed Won (6-5, 4.33).

The Giants have Rick Sutcliffe (7-8, 4.67).

I have gone 8 for 24 against Wojna. I am hitting sixth.

In the bottom of the 1st I started a Priske - Thompson - Davis double play to get Ozzie Guillen and Junior Felix.

I led off the 2nd by fouling out to Randy Ready at 1st.

We opened the scoring in the 3rd when Rick scored on a Ryan Klesko single.

Giants lead 1-0

I took care of a Felix grounder for the final out in the inning.

I then led off the 4th by striking out.

I got the last out again, this time off a Ready grounder.

I got the 2nd out in the bottom of the 5th, handling an Armando Verdugo groundball.

With one out in the 6th, Harold Baines smacked a solo shot.
I came up right after that and the Pads brought in Carlos Diaz to face me. I lined out to John Kruk in left.

Giants lead 2-0

San Diego got not he board in the 7th when pinch runner Christopher Burton scored on a Torey Lovullo single.
Then pinch runner Greg Bailey scored on a Verdugo sac fly to tie the game.
I took care of a grounder by inch hitter Harold Reynolds to end the threat.

Game tied 2-2

I am came up with two out in the 8th, now facing Stuart Rogers. I reached on an infield single.
I was left there.

With a man on in the 8th, Matt brought in Mark Williamson.
Pinch runner Eric Young scored on a Felix sac fly, to take the lead for the Padres.

Padres lead 3-2

We couldn't get it back in the 9th and lost a winnable game.

I went 1 for 4 with a single.

We are now heading home to face the Reds.
