Meteors Spoil Opening Day for Falcons, Their Fans
The 2151 season did not get off to quite the start the Karachi Falcons had hoped, with an opening day loss to the Melbourne Meteors at Muhammad Ali Jinnah Stadium. The final score was 3-2. Starting Pitcher Borya Jevakhov was the top performer for Melbourne.

Melbourne used a timely hit from Ignat Jivotenko to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Meteors ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"It was a solid team effort," Jivotenko said. "That's usually what it takes to win."
