Black Rhinos Snatch Late-Game, 2-1 Win
The Nairobi Black Rhinos gave their fans something to talk about with a thrilling, walk-off win.

Nairobi used a superb performance from starting pitcher Amrus Mtembei to down the Rome Generals, 2-1. Nairobi reliever Gerardo Mendoza snagged the win, upping his record to 3-8. Jacques De Sores shouldered the loss.

The decisive blow was delivered by David Grillo in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a solo home run off five-time All-Star Jacques De Sores to win the game for Nairobi. The home crowd went nuts.

Grillo attributed the win to his team's "tenacity."

Nairobi is now 55-69.
