The Kings got a big at-bat from catcher Robert Burns. For the game, Burns was 1-4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI. In the top of the second, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 7th double of the season gave Atlantic City a 2-0 lead.
"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Burns said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."
