Black Sox Lose, 7-4, in 11
New Zealand starter Mitchell Murphy pitched well against the South Africa Black Sox at South African Grounds. The right-hander led his team to a win, 7-4, in 11 innings. New Zealand reliever Sylvain Defrance snagged the win, upping his record to 1-2. Stéphane Gonzalez shouldered the loss. The victory makes New Zealand 11-24.

New Zealand used the clutch hitting of Habte Sahnine to snag the win. The center fielder drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the 11th inning to put the Seals ahead, 7-4. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

In postgame comments, Sahnine said, "I think we gave the fans their money's worth."
