Burros Lose at Home, 6-4, to San Diego
The San Diego Captains beat the Denver Burros, 6-4, at Gates Crescent Park. San Diego first baseman Ramon Montoya had an outstanding performance. He was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Ray Schifsky, the winning pitcher, improved to 6-3. He pitched 7.1 innings, giving up 7 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 1. Bill John recorded the save for San Diego, his 2nd of the season.

Bob Kidder had a big 2-run home run for the Captains in the top of the first inning. With San Diego leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a sinker from Keith Williams, who is tied for 7th in the NBL in wins with 15, and punished it. The result was his 6th home run of the season, which put the Captains on top, 3-0.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Montoya.

With the win, San Diego has a record of 72-77. Denver falls to 96-54.
