Meteors Tally 12-2 Win
The Melbourne Meteors powered past the Cairo Pharaohs, 12-2, at Meteor Crater. Tekle Jalali provided some of the pop. He was 3 for 5 with a triple and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Cairo is 6-6 after the loss.

Manny Rodríguez had a big run-scoring double for the Meteors in the bottom of the third inning. With Melbourne leading 3-2 and a runner on 1st, he got a cutter from Chinh Tran-Dinh, who finished 3rd in the ABL in wins with 17 in 2153, and swatted a double to right. It was his 6th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Meteors ahead, 4-2.

Cairo manager J Stell called the blowout loss "a real bummer."
