Kansas City and Denver duked it out and the Bulls came out victorious.

Bulls center fielder Haskell McLemore left his mark on his team's 7-5 win over the Denver Burros. McLemore, the 10th overall pick in the 1967 draft, was 2 for 2 with a double and 3 walks. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Kansas City in the contest. Skip Carter was the winner. He's now 10-3. The loser was four-time All-Star Bart Dunsley. Andy Luce closed the game out for Kansas City, earning his 7th save.

The Bulls got a big hit from catcher Fred Johnson. Facing Denver pitcher Bart Dunsley in the bottom of the fifth, Johnson pounded a 2-run home run to right. His 5th home run of the season put the Bulls ahead, 6-0.

"Some of the guys in here work hard, some of the guys just kind of fall out of bed and get it done. Whatever works I guess, we won this one," Johnson told the Kansas City Bulletin.

The loss makes Denver 44-23.
