The Reds are in town and they are pitching Frank Castillo (17-5, 2.48).

The Giants have Rick Sutcliffe (5-9, 4.73).

I have gone 8 for 34, or .235, with a home run against Castillo.

I am hitting sixth.

The Reds opened the scoring in the 2nd when Tom Brunansky crossed on a Beau Allred triple.
Allred then scored on a Mike Mordecai single.

Reds lead 2-0

I came up in the bottom of the 2nd with Rick Cerone on 1st. I flew out to Allred in centre.

I took care of a Brunansky grounder to end the top of the 3rd.

In the bottom half, Harold Baines hit a solo dinger.

Reds lead 2-1

I led off the bottom of the 4th by grounding out to Mordecai at short.

I handled a Brian Harper grounder for the 2nd out in the 5th.

I came up in the 6th with one out and Rick on 2nd. I flew out to Allred again.

Bryan Hickerson relieved for us in the 7th. Then Tom Kramer did the same in the 8th.

We tied it up in the 8th when Ruben Sierra scored on a sac fly by Rick.
I came up with one out and Alvin Davis on 1st. I replaced him with a fielder's choice.
I was then thrown out trying to steal 2nd.

We couldn't get it back and lost.
