You shouldn't finish like that → Why did you play the Korean Series from the opening game even though you knew it. I want to win.

Manager Lee Soo-yong recalled the opening game the previous day before the game against the Doosan Bears in the '2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League' at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 23rd. Manager Lee Sung-yong activated the bullpen from the fourth inning and won a thrilling 6-5 victory. Coach Lee Soo-yong confessed, `Honestly, I really wanted to win because it was the opening game.'
SSG's calculation went awry as starter Anderson was replaced early with four runs in three ⅔ innings, but he was not embarrassed.
SSG is firmly prepared for the bullpen, keeping in mind that early in the season starters will not be able to play long innings of pitching.
From the fourth inning, Kim Gun-woo and Kim Min-no-kyung, who are beneficial to Han Doo-sol, showed good pitching in the relay. In particular, Kim Min-no-kyung, a must-win pitching player, and Cho Byung-hyun were put in from the sixth inning at a time when SSG was being dragged 5-6. This is how desperate director Lee Sung-yong was to win.
Cho Byung-hyun started in the top of the eighth inning with two outs and the bases loaded. Doosan's foreign hitter Cave was thinned with a fly ball to left field and clenched his fist.
The must-win group comes out from behind or the eighth inning is a scene that can only be seen in the postseason's sudden desperate moment.

Cho Byung-hyun was rather good. Cho Byung-hyun said, `The game looked so much fun. I really wanted to go out. Even if he got a hit, he went up with the intention of winning the game. He boasted his strong heart as if he were a runner-up.
Since then, director Lee Sung-yong's feeling has hit the spot like a ghost. Ha Jae-hoon, who took it out as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth inning, exploded a two-run home run against Doosan setup man Lee Young-ha.
SSG Landersfield sold out all 23,000 seats for the opening game. The opening series is all sold out until the game on the 23rd. For the third consecutive year, the two consecutive games have been completely sold out.
Manager Lee Soo-yong said, `A lot of spectators came and it's a home game. The result came out well. I was able to win because the players didn't give up and did it until the end. The victory yesterday (22nd) will be a great confidence for our players."
