May 23rd, 1992

Two games may not qualify as a streak, but we are taking it one day at a time.

Today the Mets are pitching Kevin Appier (4-4, 3.37).

The Giants have Rick Sutcliffe (1-3, 5.76).

I am hitting seventh, as per usual.

We turned a Thompson - Priske - Klesko double play to end the top of the 1st.

I handled a Dave Clark grounder for the final out in the top of the 2nd.

I led off in the 3rd by reaching on an infield hit.
With one out, I went to 2nd on a sac bunt by Rick.
I was left there.

Lenny Dykstra led off the 4th with a home run.
I then took care of a Joe Oliver grounder for the 1st out.
With two out, Clark hit a solo homer.

Mets lead 2-0

We got one back in the bottom half when Bryce Bernadin scored on a Jerry Browne fielder's choice.

Mets lead 2-1

I led off the bottom of the 5th by grounding out to Bill Doran at 2nd.

In the 6th, Dykstra scored on an Oliver single.
I handled another Clark grounder for the 2nd out.

Mets lead 3-1

Bryan Hickerson relieved for us in the 7th.
I took care of a Wally Joyner grounder for the 2nd out behind him.

I came up in the bottom of the 7th with one out and Craig Grebeck on 1st.
I hit into a double play.

I handled a Dykstra grounder for the 1st out in the 8th.
Then I did the same to Oliver for the 2nd out.

Mark Ross took the ball for us in the 9th.
I caught a Dykstra liner for the 2nd out.

But then we couldn't score in the bottom half and we took the L.

We are back in last.

I went 1 for 3 with a single.
