Kings Nip Mavericks, 7-6
Seattle and Kansas City duked it out and the Kings came out victorious.

Led by Mike Griffith, the Seattle Kings defeated the Kansas City Mavericks, 7-6, in 10 innings. Griffith was 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Kings. Billy Collins, 1-1, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings.

Seattle used a timely hit from Ben Roberts to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the tenth inning to put the Kings ahead, 7-6. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"The game of baseball will test you," said Alex Watt, the Seattle skipper. "This one tested us."

The Mavericks, now 3-9, continue their sluggish start.
