Cairo Pins 5-3 Loss on Beijing
Leave it to the veteran.

The Cairo Pharaohs got a great start from 36-year-old right-hander Izaac Kulovana, as Cairo won the contest, 5-3, at The Bird's Nest. Kulovana threw 6.1 innings allowing 3 runs in the win, which allowed the Pharaohs to grab a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

In the top of the first, Carl Carter ambushed a 1-0 curveball from Vladimir Cvijic and hit a 2-run home run. It gave Cairo a quick 2-0 lead.

"We're not going to sweep 'em," Kulovana said in response to a question after the game. "Beijing is too good not to take a game somewhere."

Game 3 is scheduled for Monday at Pharaohs Ballpark in Cairo.
