After breaking our losing streak yesterday, we finish up in San Diego today.

Today the Padres are pitching Mike Gardiner (2-7, 3.84).

The Giants are going with Charlie Vinson Jr. (5-7, 3.20).

I am hitting seventh as usual.

I handled an Eric Young grounder for the final out in the 1st.

I came up with two out in the 2nd and lined now into right for a single.
Stolen base #42.
I was left there.

I took care of a Gardiner grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 3rd.

I came up in the 4th with two out and Bryce and Bernadin and Jerry Browne in scoring position. I hit one up the middle for a two run single!
Stolen base #43.
I was left at 2nd again.

Giants lead 2-0

With the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the 6th, Matt brought in Bryan Hickerson. Charlie may not have allowed any runs, but he had walked seven.
I caught a Junior Felix liner to leave the bases juiced.

I led off the 7th against Jimmy Jones. I flew out to Felix in centre.

Scott Service took over for us in the 7th.

I handled a Robert Sandoval grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 8th.
With one out and men on the corners, Matt brought in Heathcliff Slocumb.
A Priske - Thompson - Klesko double play ended the threat.

I came up in the 9th with two out, Craig Grebeck on 1st, and David Nied pitching. I walked.
Greg Myers then smacked a three run bomb!

Giants lead 5-0

Ted Power came in for the 9th for us.
Nine pitches later we had the win!

I made the highlights with my two run single.

I went 2 for 3 with a pair of singles, a walk, two RBI, a run scored, and two stolen bases.
I will take it.

Now we head home to face the Braves.
