We are in Canada, which is always nice for me.

Today the Expos are pitching Chuck Finley (2-3, 3.55).

The Giants have Bruce Ruffin (2-2, 5.08).

I have gone 6 for 30, or .200, against Finley.

I am hitting sixth.

The Expos struck int he bottom of the 1st, when Milt Cutler crosses a Chris Sabo sac fly.

Expos lead 1-0

I came up with one out in the 2nd and struck out on a bad pitch.

I caught pop by Mike Maksudian for the 1st out in the bottom half.
Cuyler hit a three-run homer.

Expos lead 4-0

I came up in the 4th with two out and Mark Lewis on 1st. I grounded out to Jose Oquendo at 2nd.

Rob Deer homered in the 6th to finally pout us on the board.

Expos lead 4-1

Darryl Scott took the mound for us in the bottom half, with Craig Grebeck replacing Mark on a double switch.

I led off the 7th and scooted one through the right side for a single.
Stolen base #13.
I scored on a two out single by Craig.

Expos lead 4-2

With two out and two on in the bottom of the 7th, Matt brought in Bryan Hickerson. He finished that inning and then Mark Ross came on for the 8th.

Maksudian scored on a pinch hit double by Pedro Guerrero.
I handled a Cuyler grounder for the 2nd out.

Expos lead 5-2

I led off the 9th, facing Wally Whitehurst. I walked on four straight.
With Ryan Klesko at the plate I was granted 2nd as Whitehurst was called for a balk.
I went to 3rd on a fly out by pinch hitter Bryce Bernardin... but that was the 2nd out.
Craig flew out and the game was over.

I went 1 for 3 with a single, a walk, a run scored, and a stolen base.

After the game, Darryl Scott was designated for assignment. Heathcliff Slocumb was called up.
