March 13th, 1985
I was leading off against Jeff Russell pitching for the Reds. I lead off with a single to right. I then scored on a double by Chris Brown.
In the 3rd I grounded out to Russell on the mound... and then in the field I messed up a ground ball BY Russell. That is another error for me. Nick Esasky hit a 2-out homer so once again my gaffe led to unearned runs.
I bounced back in the 4th, making nice play on a grounder by Kal Daniels.
In the 5th I faced a new pitcher, Ted Power, and grounded out to short.
I fielded two grounders in the bottom of the 5th and another in the 6th without incident.
In the 7th I was pinch hit for by John Castino.
The Reds beat the Giants 4-2.
