September 30th, 1990

Last day of the season.

The Dodgers are pitching Mike Witt (9-9, 3.43).

The Giants have Bob Walk (10-10, 4.12).

I have gone 15 for 41, or .366, against Witt.

I am hitting 6th.

I caught a Kent Hrbek fly for the 3rd out in the game.

I came up in the 2nd with one out and Harold Baines on 1st.
I hit into a fielder's choice, replacing Harold.
I got no further.

The Dodgers opened the scoring in the 4th when Tom Wallach crossed on a Monty Fariss single.

Dodgers lead 1-0

I caught a Bill Spiers pop for the 1st out in the 5th.

I led off the bottom of the 5th by eating a fastball to the ribs. No intention, of course.
Stolen base #134.
With one out I was thrown out trying to steal 3rd.

With one out in the 7th, Matt brought in Mark Davis.

I came up with two out in the bottom of the 7th.
I grounded out to Fariss at 2nd.

I took care of a Chili Davis grounder for the 2nd out in the 8th.

Tim Wallach followed with a solo homer.

Dodgers lead 2-0

Looked like we were falling out of it... except not so fast. Alvin Davis hit a three run home run so we went into the 9th leading 3-2.

Bobby Thigpen came it to shut it down in the 9th. Matt also did his usual defensive switches, bringing in Luis Medina, Rob Deer, and Joel Chimelis.

Three up, three down so we ended the season with a win and Bobby got his 40th save.

I went 0 for 2 with a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base, and a caught stealing.
