Denver Beats San Diego, 4-3
Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Denver Burros and San Diego Captains.

The Denver Burros picked up a win at San Diego Sporting Complex, dropping the San Diego Captains, 4-3. Frank Combs, who finished 4th in the ABL in innings pitched with 261.0 in 1972, was the difference-maker. The winner was Combs. He threw 6.2 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Jack DeWitt.

Denver relied on the bat of Guillermo Morales to get the win. The center fielder ripped a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Burros ahead, 3-1. For the game, Morales had 1 double and 1 triple in 4 at-bats.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Denver manager Clark Anderson.

Denver raised its record to 31-18 with the win.
