A nervy first-up win for the Black Sox at the softball World Cup in Auckland
26 November 2022
The New Zealand men have beaten the Czech Republic 3-1, in the tournament opener at Rosedale Park.
Starting pitcher Daniel Chapman - who's only just returned from back surgery in April - says it was crucial to get under way with a win.
Across at North Harbour Stadium, and it hasn't been the Auckland Tuatara's day.
They've been thumped 6-1 by the Sydney Blue Sox, in game 2 of their series... which is now tied at 1-all.
Game 3's set to start at 7pm.
