Carolina Earns 4-3 Win
Juan Soto was instrumental in his team's 4-3 triumph over the New York Sharks. The right fielder was 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Carolina Riptides. Carolina reliever Phil Bickford snagged the win, upping his record to 5-4. Blake Treinen shouldered the loss. With the win, Carolina raised its record to 60-58.

The game was decided with one out in the bottom of the ninth. With Carolina trailing 3-2, Soto jumped on a cutter from 37-year old right-handed pitcher Blake Treinen and hit a 2-run home run to center. With one swing, the Riptides had a walk-off win.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said New York manager Nick Ruport. "But we decided not to take it."
