Dairymen Lose, 4-2, in 10
Denver Burros starter Dick Scorza pitched his team past the Milwaukee Dairymen, 4-2, in 10 innings. Rick Morton was credited with the save, his 5th in 8 tries. The Denver winning streak has reached 3 games.

Denver took a 4-2 lead on Jim Bitting's 8th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Bitting hit in the top of the tenth, left Milwaukee pitcher Dan Valenti visibly frustrated.

Scorza called the win a test of his team's "mettle."
