The Brooklyn Bluebirds got a sterling performance from pitcher Frank D'Amico, but the Denver Burros still prevailed, 5-1. D'Amico threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball. Dick Scorza, the winning pitcher, is now 6-4. He went 5.1 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits, while fanning 1 and walking 3. The third-place Burros have won 4 consecutive games.

The Burros got a big at-bat from first baseman Bob Messinger. For the game, Messinger was 1-3 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the first, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 14th home run of the season gave Denver a 2-0 lead.

"We'll savor this win," Messinger told the Denver News, "then get ready for the next game."
