Colt 45s Lose to Monarchs in Walk-Off
The Kansas City Monarchs beat the Houston Colt 45s, 6-5. Kansas City pitcher and Rowlesburg, West Virginia, native Jock Menefee led the way. With the loss, Houston drops to 15-10.

The decisive blow was delivered by Ozzie Smith in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 29-year old left-handed pitcher Sparky Lyle to win the game for Kansas City. The home crowd went nuts.

"Jock looked very determined to have a good game," said Kansas City manager Daniel Makonnen. "He was totally focused and he produced."
