The Denver Burros had to overcome a fine effort from St. Louis pitcher Marty Clark to win, 5-4, at Corps of Discovery Stadium. Clark went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. The National Baseball League Western Division-leading Burros have a record of 72-49.

Kevin Gunn drove in one run for Denver. The slick-fielding second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Marty Clark. It was his 39th RBI of the season.

"You get some opportunities, you better take advantage of them," said St. Louis manager Ray Fleetwood.
