It’s a family affair for Tavo Sorovakatini and his two sons Marnoah and Murphy who are all part of Team Fiji’s baseball side at the Pacific Mini Games in Saipan.

Marnoah and Murphy formed the ‘sibling battery’ in Fiji Baseball history in their 13-0 win against Solomon Islands yesterday.

According to Fiji Baseball, 17-year-old Marnoah who is featuring in his first international pitched to his older brother, who catches for him the entire game.

He pitched five innings while striking out nine batters, six of them consecutively and walked one batter.

The brothers started playing baseball through their dad Tavo who has been representing Fiji since the 2003 Pacific Games in Suva.
