Kings Rebuff Wolves, 6-4
Kansas City picked up a win at Dominion Stadium, bumping off the Toronto Wolves, 6-4. Pitcher Roy Curtis was a major reason the Kings emerged victorious. The winner was Curtis. He threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Lee Loeffler. The second-place Kings improved to 87-61.

An inflection point occurred with two out in the top of the seventh. That's when Kings pinch hitter Vern Boyd hit a fastball from Lee Loeffler for a 2-run single. Just like that, Kansas City was up, 4-3.

"That was a really good outing by Roy," said Kansas City manager Glenn Carney.
