Burros Suffer 7-1 Home Loss
Brooklyn beat Denver on the strength of starting pitcher Tom Keller's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 7-1. The winner was Keller. He threw 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball. The loser was Francisco Castro. The third-place Bluebirds now sit at 48-46.

Brooklyn used a clutch at-bat from John Seidler to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Bluebirds ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Keller told the Brooklyn Daily News.
