Meteors Clip Pharaohs, 2-1
The Melbourne Meteors banked on Carol Bibescu and he turned in a masterful performance. The left-hander kept the Cairo hitters in check. The final score was 2-1, Meteors. The current losing streak for Cairo has reached 4 games.

The Pharaohs had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Meteors going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 2151 Rookie of the Year Award winner Manny Rodríguez came to the plate. Rodríguez hit a solo home run on a 1-1 changeup from Cairo hurler Bill Horne. It was Rodríguez's 9th home run of the year.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Melbourne manager Bob Meteors.
