Captains Stumble, Lose to Burros
The Denver Burros bested the San Diego Captains by a score of 9-4, with third baseman Alex Martinez getting the main credit. On the day, Martinez was 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 times for the Burros. Picking up the win was Keith Williams. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. The right--hander struck out 2 and walked 2. Denver goes to 69-38. The win puts them 11 games up in their division.

Denver used a clutch at-bat from Jimmy Benson to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Burros ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I give credit to my teammates for this win. We got it done," Martinez told the Denver Daily.
