Denver Beats Washington, 8-7
Washington right fielder Alan Cassill had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 8-7, to Denver at Monument Field. Cassill was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Willie Purter was the winner. He's now 5-4. The loser was 33-year old right-handed pitcher Dave Alexander. Tom Reid notched his 1st save in 3 chances.

Kevin Gunn came through with a big-time hit for Denver. The second baseman smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 8-5. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Gunn.

The win puts Denver at 23-37.
