Extra-Inning Win by Burros Over Traders
The Denver Burros had to overcome a fine effort from Chicago pitcher Skip Crawford to win, 5-4, in 11 innings at Union Field. Crawford went 7.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Albert Green snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits over 2 innings. He's now 1-1 on the season. The Burros, at 20-16, lead by one game in their division.

The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Tom Gregory came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Chicago pitcher Jack Storey, he hit a 3-1 cutter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Denver on top, 4-3.

"Our team showed some resilience," said Gregory.
