Burros Get Thrilling 5-4 Win
The Denver Burros wiggled past the Pittsburgh Industrials, 5-4, at Allegheny Field. The win was highlighted by the performance of Denver pitcher Bob Langham. Rick Morton sewed up the save, his 3rd. Pittsburgh is now 2-2.

Denver took a 3-1 lead on Dick Scorza's 1st triple of the season. The 2-run triple, which Scorza hit in the top of the 16th, left Pittsburgh pitcher Dick Witt visibly frustrated.

Denver manager Clark Anderson praised his team's "energy."
