July 13th, 1991

Still looking for our first win after the All-Star Break.

Today the Phillies are pitching Juan Guzman (5-9, 3.96).

The Giants have John Burkett (5-11, 5,72).

I am a measly 0 for 1 against Guzman.

I am hitting seventh, as usual these days.

I led off the 3rd by flying out to Luis Salazar in left.

I then came up in the 5th with Ryan Klesko on 1st. I hit into a double play.

I made my first defensive play in the bottom of the 5th, taking care of a Jose Vizcaino grounder for the 1st out.

I caught a Randy Milligan pop for the final out in the 6th.

I came up in the 8th with Ryan on 2nd. There was still no score.
I was intentionally walked.
Timothy McKercher laid down a sac bunt to put us both into scoring position.
John singled, scoring Ryan and moving me to 3rd!
I scored on a Robby Thompson double.

Giants lead 2-0

I came up with two out in the 9th, now facing Hector Fajardo. I grounded out to Tina Martinez at 1st.

With two out and a man on 1st in the 9th, Matt brought in Bobby Thigpen. I was removed in a double switch.
Bobby gave up an RBI triple to Vizcaino.
But then he got the 3rd out to give us the 2-1 win.


I went 0 for 3 with an intentional walk and a run scored.
