Kings Score Late, Top Stars, 9-3
Kansas City third baseman Ken Newman made his presence felt in the 9-3 Kings triumph over the Los Angeles Stars. Newman was 2-5 with a home run and was hit by a pitch, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. The 6th-place Kings sport a record of 69-72.

Kansas City used a timely hit from 32-year old right fielder Bryan Jeffress to get the win. The pinch hitter delivered a bases-clearing triple in the top of the ninth inning to put the Kings on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was huge.

"Winning is not something we take for granted," Jeffress said.
