The Kansas City Bulls trumped the San Diego Captains, 7-6, at San Diego Sporting Complex. Kansas City left fielder Chris Taylor was terrific. He was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 4. Kansas City is now 69-60, San Diego 75-55.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Emilio Cortez? The Kansas City center fielder had a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Bulls on top, 7-5. For the game, Cortez had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Taylor.
