Reapers Drop Zephyrs, 4-3
The Kyiv Reapers did just enough to sneak past the Belfast Zephyrs, 4-3, at Olympiyskiy. Kyiv pitcher Han Shui, in particular, had a standout performance. The winner was Kyiv reliever Sami Garcia, now 1-0. The loser was Rabah Bernard. Despite the loss, Belfast is still 15-7.

The Zephyrs had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Reapers going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old catcher Sðtkð Yazîcîoglu came to the plate. Yazîcîoglu hit a run-scoring double on a first pitch fastball from Belfast hurler Rabah Bernard. It was Yazîcîoglu's 1st double of the year.

In postgame remarks, Shui hailed his team's "grit."
