Bulls Pocket 3-2 Win Against Denver
In a low-scoring contest between the Kansas City Bulls and the Denver Burros, Tim McDonald, who is tied for 7th in the NBL in innings pitched with 58.2, proved to be the difference. The Kansas City left-hander earned props for his performance in the 3-2 Bulls win. McDonald got the win, improving to 5-3. He gave up 7 hits and walked 1 over 7.1 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The triumph puts Kansas City at 18-18 for the season.

Dennis Boggs, the 4th overall pick in the 1972 draft, had a direct impact on the outcome. Boggs contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fifth inning to put Kansas City up, 3-1.

"I was a little disappointed," said Denver manager Clark Anderson. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
