Toros Slap 5-4 Loss on Athletics
Donner Munro left his imprint on the 5-4 Tucson win against the Kansas City Athletics. Munro, who is tied for 9th in the WC in home runs with 5, went 2-4 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Adam Mimnaugh finished to wrap up his 3rd save. Now 7-13, the Athletics have not played well this season.

With Tucson leading 1-0 in the top of the fourth, Munro hit a splitter from Fujio Yamashita for a 3-run home run. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Toros ahead, 4-0.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Kansas City manager Joe Monagle. "But we decided not to take it."
