Bulls Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Bobcats, 4-2
Kansas City pitcher Dennis Greenlee did his part in helping his team beat the Cleveland Bobcats, 4-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Bob Crosby earned the save for Kansas City, his 28th of the year. The Bulls, at 63-52, have now won 4 straight.

Kansas City used a timely hit from Ken Durick to get the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Bulls ahead, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

Durick called the win "a collective effort."
