Former Yankees pitcher Kuroda wins in Japan comeback
Former New York Yankees pitcher Hiroki Kuroda won his first game in his return to Japanese baseball on Sunday. Kuroda struck out five while giving up five hits and walking one batter over seven scoreless innings as the Hiroshima Carp beat the Yakult Swallows 2-1. ''It was a tight game so I just tried to be patient and wait for a little run support,'' said the 40-year-old Kuroda, who threw 96 pitches and left the game with a 1-0 lead. He pitched for Hiroshima from 1997-2007 and then spent four years with the Los Angeles Dodgers before moving to the Yankees.
