Kiwoom failed to score in the second inning with one out and an opportunity on first and second base when Kim Hwi-jip hit an infield fly ball and Kim Si-ang hit an outfield fly ball.

Then, when an unusual opportunity came to make up for it in the fourth inning, Kang Soo gave back-to-back pinch hits.

With the score down 0-1, when the opportunity came with 2 outs and runners on first and second base, pinch hitter Song Seong-moon replaced Kim Hwi-jip.

When Song Seong-moon walked and filled all bases, Park Soo-jong was brought to the plate instead of Kim Si-ang.

However, Park Soo-jong was retired due to a ground ball to shortstop.

In the 5th inning, Ronnie Dawson's single, Kim Hye-seong's double, and Lee Joo-hyung's intentional walk gave the team a chance to load the bases with one out.

Here, Choi Joo-hwan struck out and Ko Young-woo was also out due to a fly ball to right field.

On this day, an unexpected situation occurred where Roenis Elias, who was expected to be SSG's starter, injured his side during warm-up before the game.

Ki-soon Lee, who was rushed to the mound as a substitute starter, pitched surprisingly well, allowing 1 hit, 5 walks, 4 strikeouts, and no runs in 3⅔ innings.

After leadoff hitter Lee Ji-young hit a triple in the third inning, SSG Go Myeong-jun scored the first run with a timely hit, and in the sixth inning, they ran away with a 3-0 lead thanks to Choi Jeong's one-run double and Han Yu-seom's sacrifice fly.
