Lew Burdette was able to finish what he started and was credited with a

complete game at Comiskey Park where the Kansas City A’s beat the Suwanee

Manatees 6 to 4.

 

Kansas City jumped out to the early lead in the first inning when they came up

with 2 runs on 1 hit.  Suwanee threatened in the 9th but Kansas City was able

to put down the rally. 

 

The victory went to Burdette(1-0) who went the distance allowing 4 runs.

Gordon Jones(0-1) ended up with the loss.  He pitched 6 innings allowing 5

hits and 2 walks.

 

‘You have to give Suwanee credit, they fought us tough to the end’ Michael

Etters said.  ‘It could have gone either way, but I’m glad we pulled out the

victory.’
