The Melbourne Meteors soundly defeated the Nairobi Black Rhinos, 15-4, at Meteor Crater, with third baseman Pavla Elovsky a major reason why. He was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 6 for Melbourne. The winner was Melbourne reliever Lynn Moore, now 1-0. The loser was Amrus Mtembei. The Meteors, at 25-27, sit in third place in the Intercontinental Baseball League Asian Division.

In the bottom of the seventh, the Meteors grabbed the lead when Elovsky hit his 2nd home run of the season. The grand slam home run off Amrus Mtembei made it 7-3, Melbourne.

"We lit up the scoreboard," said Melbourne manager Bob Meteors.
