Burros Earn 4-2 Win Against Bluebirds
The Denver Burros beat the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 4-2 -- though it took them 10 innings. Denver left fielder David Smith had a pretty good game. He went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2. The winner in relief was Craig Kelly. He is now 3-3. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. By defeating Brooklyn, the second-place Burros improved to 55-43.

Jamie Robinson came through with a big-time hit for Denver. The third baseman smacked a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Smith.
