Burros first baseman John Crabtree left his imprint on his team's 5-2 win over the San Diego Captains. Crabtree was 3-4 with a home run and 2 triples, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for Denver in the contest. Bob Langham, the winning pitcher, is now 1-0. He went 8 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits, while fanning 2 and walking 3. The Burros raised their record to 14-5.

Crabtree had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a first pitch sinker from Ken Craig, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Burros a 4-2 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Crabtree.

Denver manager Clark Anderson commended his team for exhibiting "no shortage of effort."
