We are looking to bounce back from that brutal loss.

Today the Dodgers are pitching Bob Tewksbury (6-5, 5.36).

The Giants have Frank Viola (10-7, 3.66).

Tewksbury came over from the AL this year so I have never faced him.

I am hitting sixth.

I led off the bottom of the 2nd by grounding out back to Tewksbury.

We opened the scoring in the 3rd when Frank crossed on a Ruben Sierra sac fly.

Giants lead 1-0

I got the 2nd out in the 4th off a Chili Davis grounder.

I came up next with one out in the 4th. I flew out to Phil Plantier in centre.

I took care of a Bill Spiers grounder for the 1st out in the 5th.

I handled another Chili grounder for the 3rd out in the 6th.

I came up in the 6th with Rick Cerone on 1st. I walked.
Ryan Klesko singled to load the bases.
Rick scored on a Tim Naehring single but I was thrown out trying to score from 2nd.
Two batters later, Robby Thompson hit a three-run homer.

Giants lead 5-0

I took care of a Benito Santiago grounder for the 2nd out in the 7th.

I led off the bottom of the 8th, now facing Jeff Parrett. I hit one into left for a single.
Stolen base #57.
I was left at 2nd.

I handled another Santiago grounder for the 2nd out in the 9th.

Frankie got a shutout.

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

Next the Braves come to town.
