We are in Cincinnati, hoping to pass them for 3rd in the West.

The Reds are pitching Mike Bielecki (5-2, 4.43).

The Giants are going with John Burkett (4-8, 3.29).

As per usual, I am hitting seventh.

Right away we did something we couldn't do yesterday. Ruben Sierra homered in the top of the 1st.

Giants lead 1-0

The Reds got it right back int he bottom of the 1st when Matt Notes scored on a Paul Molitor triple.
And then Rafael Serra singled Molitor home.

Reds lead 2-1

I came up with one out in the 2nd and flew out to Mariano Duncan in left.

In the 3rd, Mark McGwire hit a two run home run.

Reds lead 4-1

I came up with two out in the 4th and grounded out to Serra at short.

In the 5th, Matt Notes hit a two run homer.

Matt brought in Scott Service after that.

Reds lead 6-1

I led off the 7th by taking a four pitch walk.
Stolen base #35 AND #36.
I scored on an Alan Cockrell groundout.
A couple of batters later, Robby Thompson hit a solo home run.

Reds lead 6-3

Heathcliff Slocumb took the mound for us in the bottom of the 7th.

I led off the 9th, now facing Rob Dibble. I lined out to Duncan in left.

We were unable to score, and lost.

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