Captains Victors, 7-5, at Denver
Fans brought energy and enthusiasm to the Denver Burros home opener. John Gannon started for the home team against Ray Heath for the San Diego Captains. The Burros were unable to reward the home crowd with a win. The final score was 7-5, San Diego. Randy Barnes, though, was impressive. Ed Prater earned the save for San Diego, his 1st of the year.

San Diego won the game in part because of Ron Roe. The center fielder ripped a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Captains ahead, 5-1. For the game, Roe had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"It's always great to put the barrel on the ball and contribute," said Barnes.
