July 8th, 1985

In St. Louis to take on the Cardinals.

They are going with Rich Gale (4-6, 3.96). We are answering with Terry Mulholland (6-6, 5.78).

I am 1 for 3 against Gale.

We have won 11 in a row.

I start the game off right, singling through the left side. Stolen base #61 soon followed. I was stranded at 2nd.

The Cards got onto board in the bottom half. They loaded the bases with one out and then Tom Herr scored on a Phil Garner sac fly.

Cardinals lead 1-0.

I got the first out in the 2nd, grabbing a pop up by Juan Beniquez.

I came up in the 3rd with two out and nobody on. I doubled to deep centre. I was left on 2nd again.

The Cards scored again int eh 4th as Terry Pendleton reached 2nd on a throwing error by Ken Oberkfell and scored on a single by Beniquez.

Cardinals lead 2-0.

In the 5th I came up with two out and John Castino and Ken Smith in scoring positions. I got my 3rd straight hit as I singled to right, scoring both runners and tying the game! I then stole base #62. I tried to score from 2nd on a Kenny O single, but Vince Coleman made a perfect throw to gun me down.

Game tied 2-2.

In the 7th we grabbed the lead as Kenny Smith put a pitch into the right field bleachers for a two-run blast! I came up with the bases empty and one out and pupped up to Herr at 2nd.

Giants up 4-2!

I got the 1st out int he bottom half, taking a pop up from John Wockenfuss. Mark Davis took over pitching duties with two out that inning.
Herr singled, scoring inherited runner Darrel Thomas from 3rd. Herr scored on a Willie McGee double, tying the game.

Game tied 4-4.

In the 5th Chris Brown came in as pinch hitter and doubled before scoring on a Jeff Leonard single.

Giants lead 5-4!

I got the 3rd out in the bottom half, snagging a grounder by Wockenfuss.

I came up in the 9th with none out, Kenny Smith on 2nd and Sixto Lezcano on 1st. I flew out to Andy Van Slyke in right. Kenny O singled, scoring Smith.

Giants lead 6-4!

Ron Davis came in the close things out. Three batters later, he had none just that.

We have win TWELVE in a row!

I went 3 for 5 with 2 RBI and 2 stolen bases!
