Foxes Win Squeaker, 3-2, Over Meteors
The Black Forest Foxes managed to get by the Melbourne Meteors, 3-2, at The Den. Black Forest pitcher Dae-il Kim set himself apart with his performance. Black Forest sits in 4th place in the Intercontinental Baseball League Afro-European Division at 35-41.

Black Forest got a game-changing hit from Manoo Keshava. The catcher blasted a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"Dae-il was able to execute his pitches," said Black Forest manager DP Woodford. "Simple as that."
