Extra-Inning Win by Black Sox Over Pharaohs
The Black Sox earned a hard-fought, 3-2 win in 13 innings at South African Grounds. To do so required withstanding a fine effort from Cairo pitcher Hisham Ngigi. Ngigi went 8 innings and allowed 1 run. The win was credited to 28-year old right-handed pitcher Bappaka Puja in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Yokana Gakere took the loss. The slumping Pharaohs have dropped 6 in a row.

The game came to a dramatic end in the bottom of the 13th. With South Africa trailing 2-1, Oscar Davila hit a sinker from Yokana Gakere for a 2-run double. It was the knockout punch the Black Sox needed.

"We're all about heart and hustle on this team. That's what wins ballgames," Davila told the South Africa Times.
