Durick goes 3-for-5 to Ignite Bulls Offense
Thanks in large part to right fielder Ken Durick, the Kansas City Bulls beat the Denver Burros, 8-1. Durick was 3-5 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 2 times and drove in 6. Dick Scorza, the winning pitcher, is now 7-5. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits, while fanning 3 and walking 0. Kansas City has won 6 straight, while Denver has lost 3 in a row.

Kansas City grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Durick hit a 2-run double off Frank Combs. His 18th double of the season put the Bulls out in front, 3-1.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Durick.
