Game 43: Montreal keeps pace in the wild card chase, bludgeoning the Niners 12-1 behind a complete game by Scott Erickson (6-1). Ken Griffey Jr. drives home six runs, giving him 45 for the season.
Game 44: Tom Edens blows an 8-5 lead in the eighth inning, but Ken Griffey Jr.'s two-run triple keys a four-run tenth and the Spectres defeat Frisco 12-8.

Game 46: Rod Gorman has his best start of the season, four scoreless innings, but the Bootleggers' Bob Tewksbury matches him pitch for pitch and the Chicago bullpen bests Montreal's as the Spectres drop the opener 2-0.
Game 47: Ken Caminiti hits a game-tying three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth, but the Bootleggers score in the 10th without the benefit of a base hit as Steve Finley walks, steals second, advances to third on a groundout, and then scores on a sac fly. Montreal goes 1-2-3 in the ninth and loses 4-3.
Game 48: Scott Erickson runs his record to 7-1 with eight shutout innings as the Spectres salvage the finale, 4-0.

Game 53: Montreal starts fast, taking a 6-0 lead after two innings, but Scott Erickson has a rough time and the bullpen is horrible. San Diego rallies for an 11-9 win, scoring five times over the final three innings. Randy Velarde, Ken Caminiti, and Brady Anderson hit home runs for Montreal.

Game 65: Rod Gorman has possibly his worst start of the season, but the Spectres rally with single runs in the eighth and ninth to tie the score. Willie Blair strands two Aureole runners in the ninth, but Montreal cannot score in the top of the 10th despite a leadoff single from Ken Caminiti. Blair gives up a one-out double and a walk in the bottom half. The next batter singles, but the runner on second is thrown out trying to score. Brett Butler, however, ends the game with another single, driving home the winner in a 5-4 decision.
Game 66: Montreal drops three games behind the wild card leader as Bill Gullickson throws a one-hitter at them, finishing a two-game sweep with a 2-0 victory.
Things don't look any better for tomorrow as we have Joe Hesketh ready to start the opener of a three-game set in Atlanta.
