Rock 'Em! Sock 'Em! Morford Blasts 3 Homers in Milwaukee Win
Milwaukee left fielder Larry Morford had 4 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Denver Burros, 10-6. Milwaukee, with the win, climbs to 18-38.

The game was all tied up in the top of the ninth, until Morford delivered big-time for Milwaukee, stroking a dramatic solo home run off Paul Massey. The game-changing hit put the Dairymen on top, 7-6.

"This kind of win will certainly make our fans happy," Morford told the Milwaukee Daily.
