Kiwoom Heroes succeeded in sweeping the first three consecutive games of the season with Song Sung-moon's three consecutive home runs and four home runs in three games. Kiwoom's sweep against Samsung is the first in two years since June 2023.
Samsung, which suffered a blow to the lowest Kiwoom, fell into a quagmire for four consecutive losses and faced its biggest crisis ahead of the end of the first half. Kiwoom, which had lost all five games against Samsung before this series, balanced it to some extent with 3 wins and 5 losses by sweeping three consecutive games.
Kiwoom swept three consecutive home games by winning 10-7 against Samsung in Game 8 of the season at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 29th with Song Sung-moon's three-run home run and starter Wells' first victory. Samsung, which had suffered a severe batting slump with 15 consecutive scoreless innings before the game, had a belated chase amid an all-out war, but failed to overcome the initial loss.
Both teams started the last game of the three consecutive games in a conflicting atmosphere.

Kiwoom recently pulled down Samsung left-hander Lee Seung-hyun, who was cruising, in one ⅓ inning.
He scored the first three points with three hits and four outs in the bottom of the first inning when the score was 0-0.
He scored the first run when Lee Joo-hyung grounded out to shortstop with no outs on the first and third bases made by leadoff batter Song Sung-moon's dune and Lim Ji-yeol's hit. With Joo Sung-won's walk, the Storm and Lee Joo-hyung's consecutive timely hits with one out and runners on first and second bases made 3-0.
Lee Seung-hyun allowed three hits, four outs, one strikeout and three runs in one ⅓ inning, failing to prevent his team's losing streak (3 wins) in the season.
Kiwoom constantly bothered Samsung's bullpen, which was in operation early on. When Samsung chases him, he runs away.
After one out in the third inning, Kim Gun-hee's ground ball made an additional score in the first and third bases made by consecutive hits by Lee Ju-hyung and Eo Jun-seo, making a 4-0 run.

When Samsung chased down one run with Lee Jae-hyun's sacrifice fly in the sixth inning, Kiwoom sealed the score by running 10-3 with Eo Jun-seo's timely double and Jeon Tae-hyun's sacrifice fly in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Samsung, which could not give up until the end, shook Cho Young-gun in the seventh inning and scored four points with Ryu Ji-hyuk's pushy walk and Kim Tae-hoon and Kang Min-ho's timely hit, but the score gap was wide to turn the game around.
Kiwoom starter Wells reported his first win (one loss) by allowing five hits, four outs, two strikeouts, and two runs in five innings with up to 148 kilometers of fastballs and sliders.
Gocheok Sky Dome, which sold out 16,000 seats on the day, set a new record for the most sold out in a season with its 16th sold out of the season.
