Generals Suffer 8-5 Home Defeat
Despite a great performance by Rome first baseman Sami Muroki, the Nairobi Black Rhinos defeated the Generals by the score of 8-5 at The Colosseum. Muroki went 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 2 times. Branko Kuchek earned the win to go to 9-10. He allowed 5 runs on 10 hits, with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts in 7.2 innings of work. The Black Rhinos saw their record improve to 47-57.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Abbas Karani? The Nairobi second baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Black Rhinos on top, 3-2. For the game, Karani had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Karani.
