Giants after taking 3 days of rest at Wrigley Field, started today. In the bottom of the 1st Morris gave up 4 runs, as a result of some very sloppy fielding from the Giants. It was a depressing game for Giants fan. Until Barry stepped up in the top of the 2nd.

On the first pitch of his at bat he slammed a ball out of the Wrigley ball park’s right field. Then in his next at bat he hit an opposite field shallow ball that got 2 RBIs. He then walked. On his last at bat of the game it was 2 outs and it got up to a full count. In the next pitch Barry slammed it right into center field with a fierce wind working blowing in. It took a lot of power to get that ball out, only a guy like Barry is able to get it out with the wind blowing in like that.

The Giants lost 9-8 and it was amazing to have such a high scoring game with the wind blowing in. It was Bond’s game today getting 6 RBIs. He now has 71 career multi-home run games. Only Babe ruth has more at 72.
