Bulls Send Pittsburgh Home with 9-3 Loss
The Kansas City Bulls defeated the Pittsburgh Industrials, 9-3, at Independence Field. Kansas City was led by eight-time All-Star Buddy Shingleton, who went 3-4 with 3 singles. The win belonged to Tom Mitchell in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Dennis Visco took the loss for Pittsburgh. The second-place Bulls are 23-15.

Blossburg, Pennsylvania-born Ken Durick came through in the clutch. In the bottom of the seventh, with the bases loaded and the Bulls trailing 3-2, he hit a 2-run single to center to put Kansas City on top.

"I play this game for myself and my family, but of course it's always nice when we can win," said Durick.
