WEB GEMS- Top 1st: Steve Henderson robbed Andre Dawson of an extra base hit.
          Bot 3rd: Bill Russell robbed Ron Leflore of a base hit.

Catcher Joe Ferguson blasted 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI and Jesse Jefferson
allowed Wayne Stanko to rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game at Mile
High Ballpark where the Denver Dingers beat the Savannah Rumrunners 10 to
1.

The Denver fans enjoyed the offense provided by Ferguson.  He hit a
bases-empty home run in the 5th inning, lined a base-hit in the 6th inning
and clubbed a three-run home run in the 7th inning.  Denver had 14 hits for
the night.  

Jefferson(4-7), allowing 1 run for the game, picked up the victory. Steve
Renko(2-3) was the loser.  Denver scored big getting 5 runs off him in 4 and
1/3 innings.  

'Ahhh, that victory was surely needed.  Man alive, things were getting awfully
grim,' noted Wayne Stanko.  'Now, we need to string a bunch of wins together
and turn things around!'
