Denver Defeated By Traders, 6-2
The Chicago Traders wanted a good start from Jose Mojica -- and he delivered one. The result was a 6-2 Chicago win over the Denver Burros at Union Field. Jimmy Calhoun nailed down his 14th save. The win for the Traders raised their record to 41-33.

Chicago took a 3-2 lead on Walt McCord's 5th double of the season. The 2-run double, which McCord hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Denver pitcher Bob Langham visibly frustrated.

Chicago manager Larry Link commended his team for exhibiting "no shortage of effort."
