Meteors Edge Past Black Rhinos, 5-4
Melbourne Meteors starter Preki Cvetkovic pitched a strong game against the Nairobi Black Rhinos at Rhinos Ballpark, leading the Meteors to victory, 5-4. The 4th-place Meteors have won 5 straight.

Melbourne used the clutch hitting of Roland Bernard to capture the win. The left fielder drilled a solo home run in the top of the 15th inning to put the Meteors ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Nairobi manager J Stell. "But we decided not to take it."
