Black Forest Beats Nairobi, 4-2
The Black Forest Foxes knocked off the Nairobi Black Rhinos, 4-2, in Intercontinental Baseball League action at Rhinos Ballpark. Black Forest pitcher and Turmero, Venezuela, native António Colón had an outstanding performance. Earning his 18th save of the year was Scott Merritt. The Foxes now have a record of 47-63 with the win over Nairobi.

Black Forest used a well-timed hit by Saleh bin Khoury to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Foxes ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

bin Khoury called the win a testament to his team's "tenacity."
