Giants Score Late, Clip Carp, 4-3
The YO Giants picked up a win at Tokyo Dome, taking down the HT Carp, 4-3, in 10 innings. On the mound for YO was left-hander Cristopher Crisostomo Mercedes. He played a central role in the triumph. YO has now won 6 games in a row.

The Giants got a clutch hit from right fielder Shigeyasu Kamimura. In the bottom of the tenth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Giants.

Said Crisostomo Mercedes: "It's just one win, but it feels like more when you outlast a tough opponent."
