Meteors Win, 5-3, at Nairobi
The bad news for the Nairobi Black Rhinos: an opening day loss, 5-3, to the Melbourne Meteors at Rhinos Ballpark. The good news: it was just game one in a long season. No one played better than Pie-qi Liao. He hit 2 home runs. Reliever Domeneco Poccetti picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Tsu-wee Shih took the loss.

Melbourne used the clutch hitting of Geunhye Pang to capture the win. The catcher drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to give the Meteors the lead, 4-3. For the game, Pang had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"I felt good up there," said Pang. "I saw the ball well."
