Karachi 5-3 Victors at The Bird's Nest
The Karachi Falcons weathered an outstanding game by Beijing catcher Matthew Ross to topple the Emperors, 5-3. Ross hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. By defeating Beijing, the last-place Falcons improved to 19-32.

Karachi used the hitting of Montae Ricco to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Falcons on top, 2-0. For the game, Ricco had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"We had situations where we should have got some runs in, but we didn't get the runs in," said losing manager Kev In.
