Double header today!

In game one the Padres are going with Eric Show (6-3, 2.23)
The Giants have Colin Ward (3-1, 1.73)

Should be a barn-burner!

Against Show I have gone 0 for 3.

I led off the bottom of the 1st by grounding out to George Hinshaw at 1st.

I came up in the 3rd with none out and Ward standing on 2nd. I grounded out to Chris Speier at 3rd, but at least I advanced Ward to 3rd. Child Davis homered and scored both before the inning was over.

Giants up 2-0!

In the 4th Ward scored Terry Harper with a sac fly before I struck out to end the inning.

Giants up 3-0!

I got my first defensive play on the 5th, handling a grounder by Ron Hodges for the 2nd out.

Ward was lifted in the 7th - he pitched well, just ran out of steam. Mark Davis and Sixto Lezcano came in, replacing Harper, in a double switch.
The Padres scratched one across on a passed ball by Bob Brenly.

Giants up 3-1.

That inning I came up with one out and none on. I grounded out to Hinshaw again.

Ron Davis came it to shut things down in the 9th. He gave up a single to John Kruk but struck out the other three batters his faced for his 16th save.

Giants win 3-1!

We are back to .500 at 30-30.

I did horribly. I haven't figured out Eric Show yet.

Another game still to come today.
