We are in Montreal, trying to show some signs of life.

The Expos are pitching Ron Darling (0-1, 7.71).

The Giants have Bryan Hickerson (1-0, 1.38).

I am hitting sixth.

I took care of a Sammy Sosa grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 1st.

Bryce Bernadin led off the 2nd with a home run.

I came up with one out and lined a pitch into centre for a single.
Stolen base #9.
I went to 3rd on a Matt Mieske groundout.
I was stranded.

Giants lead 1-0

I then came up with two out in the 4th and I grounded out ti Rey Sanchez at 2nd.

In the 6th we turned a Grebeck - Priske - Klesko double play.
After that, Sosa doubled - the first hit of the game for Montreal.

Sosa ended up scoring on a Reggie Sanders single.

Game tied 1-1

I came up with one out in the 7th, now facing Tommy Tillman. I fouled out to Michael Urzandowski, the catcher.

I got the 1st out in the bottom of the inning, off a Sanchez grounder.
Jose Offerman scored on an Urzendowski single.
With one out and the bases loaded, Matt brought in Kip Gross.
Urzendowski and Israel Seda scored on a Sosa single.
Pinch hitter Alvaro Espinoza scored on a Scott Cooper sac fly.
I handled a Sanders grounder to end the inning, but the damage had been done.

Expos lead 5-1

Bret Lachemann took the ball for us in the 8th.
I caught an Offerman liner for the 1st out.

I came up in the 9th with two out, Ryan Klesko on 1st, and Alejandro Pena on the mound. I singled to right, moving Ryan to 3rd.
Matt struck out and we had lost again.

4-14.

I went 2 for 4 with a pair of singles and a stolen base.
