Marc Kroon felt like he owed everyone something after blowing a save in his last outing.
He made up for it by helping deliver a win when the Yomiuri Giants needed it most.
Kroon (3-2) threw two innings of scoreless relief late in the game, and a throwing error by Tokyo Yakult Swallows reliever Tatsuyoshi Masubuchi in the 10th allowed the winning run to score as Yomiuri escaped with a 4-3 win on Tuesday at Tokyo Dome.
