Kiwoom neatly won 5-4 against Doosan in the KBO League in the 2025 season at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 22nd.
Starting pitcher Ha Young-min pitched seven scoreless innings. Ha Young-min showed off his best pitching this season and achieved three wins (three losses).
Oh Sun-jin (3 hits and 1 RBI in 3 at-bats) and Yasiel Puig (1 hit, 1 home run and 2 RBIs in 3 at-bats) stood out in the batting lineup. In particular, Oh Sun-jin played three hits in 956 days. It is the first time since the match against Lotte in Daegu on September 9, 2022, when he was a member of Samsung.
Kiwoom scored the first run in the bottom of the second inning.
Lim Ji-yeol's walk and Kim Jae-hyun's inner hit gathered runners. With one out and runners on the first and second bases, Oh Sun-jin exploded a timely double that fell to the right field. With one out and runners on the second and third bases, Eo Jun-seo hit consecutive hits to bring in Kim Jae-hyun.
Puig's two-run home run hit in the bottom of the third inning. Puig hit a curveball driven to the high course in a two-ball, one-strike advantageous count. It was a big hit that I could feel it was a home run at the moment I got hit. The distance was 130 meters.
Kiwoom, which was leading 4-0, added one point in the bottom of the sixth inning. Lim Ji-yeol penetrated the loopholes of Doosan's defense.

Doosan barely recovered one run in the top of the eighth inning after Ha Young-min went down. With no outs and no outs, Kim Min-seok hit a double against Kiwoom's second pitcher Park Yoon-sung. After Park Joon-young stepped down with an infield fly ball, pinch hitter Kim In-tae walked and collected runners.
Kiwoom changed the pitcher again. Oh Seok-joo was put in relief with one out and runners on first and second bases. Doosan swallowed its disappointment as Yeo Dong-gun only grounded out to third base and hit a double play.
Doosan started its pursuit late in the top of the ninth inning. Yang Eui-ji hit a two-run home run and Kim Jae-hwan hit a one-run home run. It was followed by a one-point gap, but it was not enough to turn the game around.
