KIA won 3-2 against LG in the KBO League in the 2025 season held at KIA Champions Field in Gwangju on the 27th. He lost the first game after a close game, but he laughed consecutively on the 26th and 27th.
The strength of the bullpen stood out. Starting pitcher Nail stepped down without losing or losing two runs in six innings. From the seventh inning, Jeon Sang-hyun, Jo Sang-woo, and Jung Hae-young completely blocked each inning.
LG starter Lim Chan-kyu also pitched six innings and two runs, but he could not prevent the team's defeat.
KIA scored the first run in the bottom of the first inning. Leadoff Park Chan-ho hit a heavy hit. Kim Sun-bin hit a double on the left-field line. Kim Do-young struck out, but Choi Hyung-woo hit an RBI grounder to second base. Oh Sun-woo also struck out and had to settle for one point. It was a bit disappointing that the big innings chance ended with one run on the second and third bases with no outs.
KIA ran away one run with Choi Hyung-woo's solo home run in the bottom of the fourth inning. Choi Hyung-woo aimed for the first pitch. He rolled up a 140km fastball that was inserted into a relatively low course. It is his fourth season and 399 home runs in his career. Choi Hyung-woo approached the second 400 home runs in KBO history with one.
LG, who was being dragged, succeeded in targeting nails in the top of the sixth inning.
Leading hitter Hong Chang-ki drew a walk after a persistent game going up to nine pitches. Kim Hyun-soo also got a walk as he made his nails throw seven pitches. Austin hit a timely hit in front of the right field with no outs and runners on the first and second bases. Moon Bo-kyung only hit a double play in front of the shortstop in the first and third bases with no outs, but it was tied 2-2 when the third baseman came in.

Choi Won-joon, the leadoff hitter, hit the right field. LG put down Lim Chan-kyu here and put in Kim Young-woo. KIA Kim Tae-gun took a sending bunt position, but the ball came in consecutively. After Kim Tae-gun walked, Kim Ho-ryeong buntted. Choi Won-joon, who was on third base, was caught at home when Park Chan-ho grounded out to first base.
Kim Sun-bin came forward as a troubleshooter. The flow seemed to be cut off with two outs, but Kim Sun-bin scored a hit to the right-center and Kim Tae-gun scored.
LG also had a chance in the top of the eighth inning as leadoff hitter Hong Chang-ki survived, but failed to make use of it. Kim Hyun-soo, Austin Moon Bo-kyung, stepped down one after another.
In the top of the ninth inning with a 3-2 lead, KIA closer Jung Hae-young was dispatched to protect the victory.
