Black Rhinos Shut Out Fitzies, 2-0
In a low-scoring contest between the Nairobi Black Rhinos and the Tokyo Fitzies, former first round draft pick José Torres proved to be the difference. The Nairobi left-hander earned props for his performance in the 2-0 Black Rhinos win. The winner was Torres. He threw 6.2 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Arturo Martínez. Ayman bin Ishaq closed the door for Nairobi, picking up his 20th save of the year.

Darbha Gowd, who is tied for 9th in the IBL with a .312 batting average, had a direct impact on the outcome. Gowd contributed a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning to put Nairobi up, 2-0.

"We didn't score," said losing manager Meeks 17. "That was the problem."

Nairobi, at 39-62, sits in last place in the Intercontinental Baseball League Afro-European Division.
