New York City 7-1 Losers to Cutthroats
Denver turned a fine outing from starter Emmanuel Rucker into a victory over the New York City Blues at Blues Field. The final score was 7-1. Rucker yielded 1 run over 8.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 1, and struck out 5. His record improves to 3-4. Denver now sports a record of 21-21.

Denver used a well-timed hit by Tim Martin to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Cutthroats ahead, 4-1. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

Martin attributed the win to his team's "tenacity."
