Kings Beat Cougars in 11
The Kansas City Kings had to overcome a big game from Chicago right fielder Jerry McMillan to leave Cougars Park with a victory. And they did, winning, 11-9, in 11 innings. McMillan went 2-4 with 2 home runs and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs and drove in 4. Gordon McDonald earned the save for Kansas City, his 1st. The 4th-place Kings now sit at 35-33.

Kansas City used a timely hit from former first round draft pick Billy Bryant to get the win. The second baseman delivered a 2-run triple in the top of the 11th inning to put the Kings on top, 11-9. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was huge.

"Took some scratching and clawing," said Bryant. "But we got it done."
