Monks Defeated, 7-4, After Nairobi Rallies
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Nairobi Black Rhinos and Daegu Monks.

David Grillo, who finished 5th in the IBL in batting average with .322 last year, led Nairobi to a triumph over Daegu. The final score was 7-4. The right fielder went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 2 runs and added 1 RBI. Nairobi pitcher David Numbers earned the win, hiking his record to 14-9. Jack Darroch suffered the loss. Gerardo Mendoza closed it out for Nairobi, earning his 21st save.

Nairobi used a clutch at-bat from Boboy Gines to capture the win. The center fielder hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the second inning to put the Black Rhinos ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"This was a total team effort," said Grillo.

Nairobi bumps their record to 63-71 with the win.
