NC showed an explosive hit by reversing the 0-5 lead against LG to 9-7 at home at Changwon NC Park on the 26th.
NC, which had 55 wins, 6 draws, and 54 losses due to the victory, ranked fifth in the winning rate, ahead of KT Wiz (59 wins, 4 draws, 58 losses) who lost to Lotte Giants. His opponent against LG also became a six-win and six-loss tie. It is the only team with a .500 performance against LG.
NC, which put up foreign first starter Logan Allen, consisted of Kim Joo-won (striker), Choi Won-joon (middle fielder), Park Min-woo (second baseman), Davison (first baseman), Park Gun-woo (designated hitter), Lee Woo-sung (left fielder), Kim Hyung-joon (possession), Kim Hui-jip (third baseman), and Shin Jin-hwan (right fielder).
After Lim Chan-kyu (10 wins) and Chirinos Song Seung-ki (10 wins) in the LG starting lineup, Son Joo-young, the left-handed ace who is trying to win 10 games, must be destroyed to win the game.
NC, which failed to score the first point after Park Gun-woo struck out in a chance with two outs and runners on the first and third bases in the bottom of the first inning, was dragged away by giving up two runs in the top of the second inning. He repeatedly failed to score in the bottom of the second inning with two outs and runners on third and one out in the bottom of the third inning.
In the top of the fourth inning, he gave up three points after two outs and seemed to give up the win by 0-5, but NC did not give up.
He immediately hit back at the bottom of the fourth inning and pressured LG. After one out, Lee Woo-sung hit a left-center double, and Kim Hyung-joon got on base due to a third baseman's error, with one out and runners on first and second bases. Kim Hwi-jip's right-handed hit came out, making the bases loaded with one out. Chun Jae-hwan's sacrifice fly to right field scored the first point. 1-5. With two outs and runners on the first and third bases, NC added two runs with Choi Won-joon's double to the left, closing the gap to 4-5, one run.
It seemed that it would be a difficult second half against LG's must-win group by allowing two points to LG in the top of the sixth inning, 4-7, and three points apart, but NC's concentration was different.

It's time to keep it. It was important to prevent LG's batting lineup, which had strong hindsight at the last minute. Kim Young-kyu, who had been throwing since the sixth inning, also came out in the top of the seventh inning and gave up a hit to the leadoff Koo Bon-hyuk, but later ended three batters without a hit, and Kim Jin-ho allowed Austin to walk in the top of the eighth inning, but allowed no hit. In the top of the ninth inning, closer Ryu Jin-wook allowed one hit and no run. Kim Young-kyu made the winning pitcher, Kim Jin-ho made the hold, and Ryu Jin-wook made the save.
Choi Won-joon, who came from KIA, contributed to the team's come-from-behind victory with a hard hit with a right-handed hit in the first inning, an infield hit in the third inning, a two-run left-center double in the fourth inning, and a right-handed hit in the sixth inning. Kim Joo-won also scored three hits, one RBI and two runs, and Park Min-woo also scored three hits and one run, so the first to third hitters drove in 10 hits. LG had 13 hits on the day, but NC devastated the LG mound with 16 hits.
Coach Lee Ho-joon said after the game, `The players did a good job against LG. Praise the two big innings process. "I saw the players play with a positive mind that they could win at a time when they were trailing. "All the players played their roles in their positions to the point where only one player could praise them. I'd like to say that it's a game where the passion of the players shone"I applauded the process rather than the result.
