Moret Powers Burros to 8-5 Win
Led by Guillaume Moret, the Denver Burros defeated the San Diego Captains, 8-5. Moret went 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Burros. Denver goes to 97-61. The win puts them 4 games up in their division.

Denver used the clutch hitting of Ken Hussey to snag the win. The first baseman drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Burros ahead, 6-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Moret told the Denver Citizen.
