Bangkok Downed, 6-4, by Black Sox
South Africa Black Sox starter Andrew Gray pitched a strong game against the Bangkok Elephants at Bangkok Ballpark, leading the Black Sox to victory, 6-4. South Africa, at 82-52, is 7 games up in the Eastern League Africa.

South Africa used the timely hitting of Sahlu Kipkoech to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Black Sox on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"You have to trust that what you're doing is going to produce results," said Gray.
