Meteors Prevail, 4-3, Over Karachi
Fans of the Melbourne Meteors who packed the stands for the home opener were rewarded with a Melbourne win over the visiting Karachi Falcons, 4-3. Cipriano Sánchez started for the home team against Aleksander Eckhard. Cipriano Sánchez earned accolades for his performance. Rex Murray earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. He upped his record to 1-0.

Pavla Elovsky went 2-3 with 2 doubles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Melbourne. The 22-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and a runner on 3rd, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Aleksander Eckhard. It was his 2nd RBI of the season.

Melbourne manager Bob Meteors praised his team's "businesslike approach."
