22,441 fans were treated to a fine game at Veterans Stadium as only one run
separated the combatants at game's end.  The Denver Dingers ended a long
winless drought and won by the slimmest of margins, 5 to 4.

The deciding run was scored by Denver in the 9th.  After an out was recorded,
Willie McCovey doubled.  Joe Ferguson followed next and he drew a walk.  One
out later, Cesar Cedeno then doubled scoring the run.  Bristol could do no
damage in the bottom of the 9th.  

Pete Vuckovich(5-7) allowed 1 run in 2 innings, and picked up the victory. Bob
Stanley(2-4) ended up with the loss in relief.  He surrendered 2 runs and 4
hits in 2 and 1/3 innings.  

When questioned, Wayne Stanko remarked, 'It's been a while since a win felt
this good - heck, it's been a while since we had a win period!'
