Black Rhinos Stay Hot With 5-3 Win
The 5-3 Nairobi win over Melbourne was due largely to Katsuhiko Watanabe. The Black Rhinos second baseman went 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2. The win puts Nairobi at 63-57 this season.

In the top of the fifth, Nairobi right fielder Cheng-ho Tieh had a big at-bat. With two out and the bases loaded, he hit a run-scoring single. For the game, Tieh was 2 for 3 with a double and a walk.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Nairobi manager J Stell.
