Burros Thrill Fans with 3-0 Win
Starting pitcher Bob Langham was a major factor in the 3-0 Denver Burros triumph over the St. Louis Explorers. Denver pitcher Tom Reid got the win, upping his record to 2-1. Bruce Shone got the loss. The Burros go to 30-44 with the win.

The decisive blow was delivered by John Crabtree in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a 3-run home run off 31-year old right-handed pitcher Bruce Shone to win the game for Denver. The home crowd went nuts.

"It's always nice to be on the winning side," Langham told the Denver Times. "But we take nothing for granted."
