SSG had Choi Jeong's home run from the first inning. Choi Jung-eun, the second batter Jung Joon-jae walked to get on base after one out in the bottom of the first inning, and even stole second base.

It is Choi Jeong's second home run in an exhibition game.

SSG, which added two points, ran 5-2 as Oh Tae-gon hit a timely two-run hit to the left in the scoring opportunity.

Kiwoom also did not step down easily. Kim Dong-yeop's solo shot came out in the top of the eighth inning. Kim Dong-yeop faced SSG left-hander Kim Gun-woo, who was playing well, and connected him with a 145km fastball in the absence of a two-out runner to a solo home run to the left.
