Bulls, Turner Pin Bad Loss on Burros
The Kansas City Bulls beat the Denver Burros by a score of 10-2. Kansas City third baseman Roger Turner deserved the lion's share of the credit. Turner went 4 for 5 with 3 doubles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Bulls. The Bulls improved their record to 42-45 by beating Denver.

With Kansas City leading 2-0 in the top of the third, Turner hit a sinker from Bart Dunsley for a 2-run double. It was his 17th double of the season and put the Bulls ahead, 4-0.

"We didn't help ourselves, it's as simple as that," said losing manager Clark Anderson.
