Dragons Beaten By Carp, 6-2
The home crowd had a good time watching the CH Dragons and HT Carp get after it.

The HT Carp picked up a win at Mazda Zoom-Zoom Stadium, knocking off the CH Dragons, 6-2. Starting pitcher Ryoji Kuribayashi was a big reason why. Kuribayashi got the win, improving to 2-2. He gave up 4 hits and walked 1 over 6.1 innings. He allowed no runs.

The Carp got a big at-bat from third baseman Kaito Kozono. For the game, Kozono went 1-3 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the third, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 11th double of the season gave HT a 2-0 lead.

"I still think this team can play even better," Kozono told the HT Daily.

With the win, HT pushed its record to 29-20.
