Messinger Homers Twice in 9-5 Burros Win
The Denver Burros powered past the Milwaukee Dairymen, 9-5, at Gates Crescent Park. Bob Messinger was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice, to lead the charge. Dave Church, credited with the win, is now 10-16. He allowed 5 runs on 10 hits in 9 innings. The win hiked the Denver record to 77-66.

The Burros got an important contribution from second baseman Jim Farrar, who in the bottom of the third punched a 1-2 changeup into right-center for a 2-run double. It was his 14th double of the season and put the Burros ahead, 4-0.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Farrar.
