The Denver Burros got a sterling performance from pitcher Bob Langham, but the Kansas City Bulls still prevailed, 5-4. Langham threw 8.0 innings allowing 4 runs. The winner was Don Callahan in relief. His record improves to 3-0. Dick Scorza took the loss. Kansas City has now won 7 games in a row.

Dave Lester was the walk-off hero for Kansas City. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bulls second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"He who laughs last laughs best," Lester said, postgame.
