Jose de Leon and the Pirates are in town. We have Mike Krukow going.
I haven't faced de Leon but he looks pretty good. We have lost four in a row. We've got to stop that.
I led off the bottom of the 1st with a single to centre! Jeff Leonard flew out but then I got stolen base #27. I got no further.
A Castino - Priske - Deer double play got Bill Madlock and Greg Gross to get out of the 2nd.
In the 3rd I came up with one out and John Castino on 2nd. RBI single to left! Then stolen base #28. I was left there again, but we led 1-0!
In the 4th Bob Brenly hit a two-run homer! 3-0!
In the 5th I came up with one out and the bases clear. I flew out to Kirk Gibson in right.
In the 7th Terry harper hit a solo homer! Later that inning I came up with two out and Castino on 2nd. I grounded out to Dale Berra at short. 4-0
Brenly knocked in another run in the 8th! 5-0!
Krukow pitched a 3-hit shut out!
