Burros Slap 5-1 Loss on Traders
Denver and Chicago got after it at Union Field.

Denver Burros starter Frank Combs was in fine form. He led his team to victory over the Chicago Traders, 5-1. The loss makes Chicago 39-29.

Denver used a well-timed hit by Guillermo Morales to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Burros ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Frank knows how to get ahead of hitters, stay ahead of hitters, and put people out," said Denver manager Clark Anderson.
