| Kings Take Nail-Biter Over Imperials | The Kansas City Kings beat the New York Imperials, 5-4, in 10 innings. Kansas City pitcher and Toledo, Ohio, native Elmer Sullivan led the way. Tony Britten, now 1-1, was credited with the win in 1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit, while striking out 1 and walking 1. Kansas City has 4 straight wins, New York 5 straight losses.
The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Kansas City pinch hitter Bill Guthrie, facing Eddie Webb, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Kings the 5-4 win.
"He who laughs last laughs best," Sullivan said, postgame.
