Melbourne and Karachi duked it out and the Meteors came out victorious.

Melbourne second baseman Manny Rodríguez collected 4 ribbies while his team bumped off the Karachi Falcons, 9-7, in 13 innings. The victory gives the Meteors a record of 78-70.

The game was all tied up in the top of the 13th, until Rodríguez delivered big-time for Melbourne, stroking a dramatic 2-run home run off Suezo Watanabe. The game-changing hit put the Meteors on top, 9-7.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Rodríguez.
