In 8.2 innings, Potts surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 3. He allowed 3 runs. The Kings raised their record to 13-6.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Chuck Collins? The Brooklyn first baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Kings on top, 5-2. For the game, Collins had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Potts.
