Chicago and Denver got after it at Gates Crescent Park.

Chicago got a strong outing from Bobby Peters as the Traders defeated the Denver Burros, 7-2, at Gates Crescent Park. The winning pitcher was Peters, now 5-0. He tossed 9 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 5.

Jeff Madsen had a big 2-run home run for the Traders in the top of the first inning. With Chicago leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Tom Reid and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Traders on top, 3-0.

"Solid game, solid win tonight," said a smiling Madsen.

The win for the Traders raised their record to 21-17.
