Game 160 in San Francisco started well, Roberto Kelly hit his 13th HR in the 1st to give us a 2-0 lead. A 2-run homer by Mo Vaughn in the bottom of the 4th gave the Giants a 3-2 lead. They held a 5-4 lead in the 8th when Clark hit a 2-out-2-run double and we took a 6-5 lead in the 9th where Joe Beckwith took the mound and after a 1-out single, he left the game injured. We had to bring in Kevin Houston cold pinch hitter Jessie Levis his a 2-run walk-off single.......and we lost a heartbreaker 7-6. The Reds held a 6-4 lead over the Padres in the 8th when San Diego exploded for 6 runs and we were still in it. 2 back with 2 to play.
In game 161, Lynn and Clark went back-to-back in the 1st and we were off to an easy 8-3 win. Lynn was 4-4 with 2 runs and 3 RBI to lead us as he always does. Hitchcock was great again, 1 run allowed in 7. And the Reds were hapless against Roger Clemens, shut out 3-0 on 3 hits.
1 game back. 1 to play
