Burros Clip Wolverines, 5-4, in WS Contest
Riding the 2-hit performance of catcher Frank Bohley, the Denver Burros got a road win against the Detroit Wolverines, 5-4, in Game 3 of the World Series. Bohley was 2-3 with a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Burros, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 2 games to 1.

Had Bohley not come through in the top of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Bohley hit a 2-run double. The Burros took the lead, 5-3, and never looked back.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Bohley.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Wolverine Field in Detroit.
