Bobcats Defeat Burros, 6-4
Despite a fine performance by first baseman Armando Landa, the Denver Burros lost to the Cleveland Bobcats, 6-4. Landa was 1-2 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The winner was Cleveland reliever Del Carbone, now 2-0. The loser was Bill Kaiser. Steve Cheatham was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

Cleveland took a 4-3 lead on Phil Chirico's 29th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Chirico hit in the top of the tenth, left Denver pitcher Bill Kaiser visibly frustrated.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Chirico.

After today's action, Cleveland sits at 71-76; Denver slips to 69-79.
