Kings Win 6-5 Walk-Off
The Kansas City Kings, with some walk-off drama, delighted their fans at Prairie Park.

The Kansas City Kings downed the Chicago Cougars, 6-5, at Prairie Park. Bill Denney led the way, going 2-for-2 for Kansas City. The winning pitcher was Beau McClellan. He tossed 119 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 5 runs on 11 hits.

The climactic moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Kansas City. That's when Pat Davis, who is tied for 4th in the CA in total bases with 235, hit a run-scoring double off Pug White to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.

"I warned the team before the game," losing manager Buck Cuppett told reporters, "that I'm wearing the same pair of undies until we win."

The Cougars, now 58-48, have lost 5 straight.
