Denver Win Evens Series at 2
The Denver Burros took down the New York Knickerbockers by the score of 5-1 and moved into a 2-2 tie in the Divisional Round. The largest share of the credit belongs to Denver starter Bart Dunsley, who threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball.

Dunsley, a native of Arkadelphia, Arkansas, was dealing all game. He kept New York hitters off-balance, while giving the Burros 7 quality innings. Dunsley threw 96 pitches, allowing 3 hits and striking out 6.

Dunsley called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Knickerbocker Stadium in New York.
