June 28th, 1991
A three game set after the two gamer went so well.
The Padres are pitching Sterling Hitchcock (6-4, 3,25).
The Giants have John Burkett (4-10, 6.01).
I haven't faced Hitchcock much, going 1 for 2. I am hitting 7th.
Ozzie Guillen scored on a George Bret fielder's choice in the bottom of the 1st.
Padres lead 1-0
I led off the 3rd by flying out to Dion James in left.
I took care of a Guillen grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 3rd.
I caught a Hitchcock pop for the last out in the 4th.
We grabbed the lead in the 5th when Alvin Davis socked a two run homer.
I came up with Mark Lewis on 1st and sent a fielder's choice ball to Randy Ready at 3rd.
I was caught trying to steal 2nd.
Giants lead 2-1
I took care of a Hitchcock grounder for the last out in the 6th.
Scott Service took the ball for us in the bottom of the 7th.
I took care of a Tony Gwynn grounder for the 2nd out for him.
I led off in the 8th. I grounded out to Eric Young at 2nd.
Darryl Scott was there to take the 8th.
I got the 3rd out off a Charlie Hayes grounder.
We got an insurance run in the top of the 9th when Ruben Sierra scored on an Alvin Davis single.
