Kipkoech Hits 2 home runs in Black Sox Win
South Africa beat Cairo at South African Grounds, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to first baseman Sahlu Kipkoech. He hit 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. Hisham Ngigi earned the win for South Africa. He lasted 6.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 11 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 5-3. Marquos Gromicho got the save, his 2nd in 3 chances.

Kipkoech had a key at-bat for South Africa early in the game. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a 3-run home run. It was his 29th home run of the season and gave South Africa an early 3-0 lead.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Kipkoech told the South Africa News.

South Africa now has a 3-game win streak.
