Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the HT (Ni-Gun) Carp got the win.

The HT (Ni-Gun) Carp had to overcome a good performance from HA (Ni-Gun) pitcher Yasugi Higashi to claim a 3-2 win at Naruohama Baseball Ground. Higashi went 5.2 innings and allowed 2 runs. HT (Ni-Gun) pitcher Yoshiki Sunada got the win, upping his record to 5-3. Daichi Ishii got the loss.

Akihiko Kumagai, who is tied for 3rd in the WL in doubles with 18, had a direct impact on the outcome. Kumagai contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put HT (Ni-Gun) up, 3-2.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Kumagai.

The last-place Tigers dropped to 33-46.
