Burros Prevail, 7-5, Over Los Angeles
The Denver Burros downed the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 7-5, at Gates Crescent Park. The Burros were led by Tom Clark. Clark went 2-3 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. The winner was Bart Dunsley, who threw 97 pitches over 6.2 innings. The left-hander was charged with 5 runs on 9 hits. Earning his 3rd save of the year was Bob Langham.

Tom Gregory, who is tied for 5th in the NBL with a .475 on-base percentage, helped out the Denver cause in the bottom of the fourth inning with a run-scoring walk. For the game, the shortstop went 1-3 with a walk.

"Nice to get this one," said Clark. "We've been scuffling."

The Burros, now 5-11, have not found much traction so far in 1970.
