Black Rhinos Sneak By Shogun, 3-2
The Nairobi Black Rhinos had to overcome a fine effort from Tokyo pitcher Yoshifusa Hasegawa to grab a narrow 3-2 win at Tokyo Ballpark. Hasegawa went 8 innings and allowed 1 run. Nairobi goes to 13-15.

Nairobi used the clutch hitting of Haroun Sulaiman to capture the win. The third baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Black Rhinos ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"If you ever get this game figured out," said Tokyo manager Billy 1189, "let me know."
