Bulls Drop Burros, 7-5, with Late Score
The Kansas City Bulls grabbed a win, 7-5, over the Denver Burros at Gates Crescent Park. Kansas City pinch hitter Hank Cummings went 1 for 1 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Tommy Glantz picked up the win, improving his season record to 10-11. He struck out 5 in 7 innings. Denver has now lost 5 in a row.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Dennis Murphy to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Bulls on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said Murphy. "Those qualities define our team."
