Kansas City Gets 9-6 Win
Roger Turner was instrumental in his team's 9-6 triumph over the New York Knickerbockers. The pinch hitter was 1-1 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Kansas City Bulls. Picking up the win was Skip Carter. He went 5 innings, allowing 5 runs on 7 hits. The left--hander struck out 1 and walked 4. Kansas City raised its record to 69-55 with the win.

Kansas City catcher Eddie Rodriguez helped the Bulls go up, 6-5, in the top of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Rodriguez hit a run-scoring single off New York pitcher Wayne Houston.

"I don't lose sleep over a loss," said Rodriguez. "But I have better dreams after a win."
