Raiders Turn Away Sharks, 5-3
The Canberra Raiders picked up a win at Canberra Stadium, knocking off the Cronulla Sharks, 5-3. Starting pitcher Young-chul Kong played a key role in the triumph. Canberra reliever Toshio Sakaguchi picked up the win, raising his record to 4-0. Steve Dugan was tagged with the loss. The win makes Canberra 38-46.

Had Jamie Aplin not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Aplin hit a 2-run single. That made the score 5-3, in favor of the Raiders.

"I had pretty good command out there," said Kong.
