05/19 Game 33 Vs. BOS: L 13-1: 3 errors and Rhule being unable to get out of the 2nd inning made this one painful. (Record 14-19)
05/21 Game 34 @ BAL: L 4-3: I gave Crawford the start in this one and he went 6 1/3 giving up just 2 runs. Hiller blew this one in the 9th, giving up 2 runs on 2 hits and 2 walks. It’s his 2nd blown save and 2nd loss of the season. (Record 14-20)
05/22 Game 35 @ BAL: W 3-1: A great start by Bare; he works 8 innings and only gives up the 1 run. Hiller came in for his 7th save. Oglivie hit his 13th HR. Go Bengie, go! (Record: 15-20)
05/23 Game 36 @ BAL: L 7-1: Everybody is pulling for The Bird, but he just hasn’t been consistent. In his 7 1/3 innings today he gave up 11 hits and 7 runs. His ERA has ballooned back to 5.31, which is better that Bare and Coleman, I suppose. I would just like to see him work a little quicker out there and bear down. Meanwhile, Flangan 2-hit us. (Record: 15-21)
May 23rd, 1976: I really don’t feel much like thinking about this tonight. Opponents are hitting .313 against me. That’s what is killing me. It’s like I was a different pitcher in Paradise. You know something is wrong when DeCinces goes 4 for 4 against you. He just raised his average to .215 for gosh sakes. It’s not like he’s Joe frickin’ Dimaggio! I’ll be in Paradise with one more start like that...
