Bulls Win Nail-Biter in 10
The Kansas City Bulls defeated the Denver Burros, 6-5, in 10 innings. Much of the credit belonged to right fielder Emilio Cortez, who went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Bulls. Dusty Solomon claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 3 innings. His record stands at 1-3. The win boosted Kansas City to 42-38.

Rod Kremer came through with a big-time hit for Kansas City. The pinch hitter smacked a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 6-5. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Sometimes winning takes more than 27 outs," said Bulls manager DD Martin.
