Dust Devils Capture Close Win
The Kansas City Dust Devils outlasted Joaquin Gomez and the Newark Flyers, 9-8. Gomez was impressive in the loss. The Newark third baseman went 2 for 3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Kansas City is now 28-46, while Newark is 46-28.

Bob Zerhusen played the role of hero for Kansas City. In the bottom of the ninth, he launched a solo home run off Jesse Eves to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was the decisive blow.

Zerhusen said this kind of win gives the team "a buzz."
