KT's batting lineup exploded actively and gained momentum from the beginning. Samsung was the first to open the store. Kim Sung-yoon and Koo Ja-wook walked to base in the top of the first inning, and Kim Young-woong's timely hit came out with two outs.

From the bottom of the second inning, KT succeeded in scoring and came with a clear flow. In the bottom of the second inning, leadoff hitter Kang Baek-ho succeeded in getting on base after eight pitches, and Jang Sung-woo's infield hit came out. Next, chances for the second and third bases made by Kim Sang-soo's sacrifice bunt. Hwang Jae-kyun's sacrifice fly and Jang Jin-hyuk and Kwon Dong-jin's timely hit led 3-1. Jang Jin-hyuk, who had an upset three-run the previous day, hit with a team victory for two consecutive days.




In the bottom of the third inning, leadoff hitter Huh Kyung-min's home run, Ahn Hyun-min's walk, and Kang Baek-ho's timely hit widened the score to 5-1. At the end of the fifth inning, I was lucky. Samsung lowered starting pitcher Choi Won-tae and placed Choi Choong-yeon on the mound. Heo Kyung-min's ball bounced off the third base, making it an infield hit. Ahn Hyun-min's ground ball later led to one out and one base, but Kang Baek-ho's walk and Kim Sang-soo's timely hit made it 6-1.

KT effectively sealed the game in the bottom of the sixth inning with Kwon Dong-jin's double and Huh Kyung-min's timely hit.

Samsung followed Hong Hyun-bin and Yang Yang-geun with back-to-back doubles in the top of the eighth inning, but failed to score an additional score.




KT completely beat Samsung's willingness to chase in the bottom of the eighth inning with Kwon Dong-jin's walk, Stephenson's double and Ahn Hyun-min's two-run timely hit.
