Taylor Shines in 12-8 Kansas City Win
Kansas City first baseman Chris Taylor made his presence felt in the 12-8 Bulls triumph over the Chicago Traders. Taylor was 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. With the win, Kansas City pushed its record to 59-48.

Kansas City used a timely hit from Armando Amador to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Bulls ahead, 9-7. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"If you were looking for a pitchers' duel," said Amador, "this wasn't it."
