6-3 Win Gets Denver to 102-58
Getting offensive support from Ron Palmer, the Denver Burros topped the Kansas City Bulls, 6-3. Palmer was 4 for 4 with 4 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 for the Burros. Denver, at 102-58, is 11 games up in the National Baseball League Western Division.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Alex Martinez? The Denver third baseman had a bases-clearing double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Burros on top, 6-1. For the game, Martinez had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Martinez told the Denver Daily.
