The Samsung Lions, which once fell to 8th place, launched a counterattack. Now it is only one game away from third place.

Samsung beat the Doosan Bears 14-1 in the 2025 KBO League at Jamsil Stadium on the 27th. Samsung has won five consecutive games, fluctuating the mid-range game.

SSG Lotte NC, which was third to fifth until the previous day, lost side by side. As KT, Samsung, and KIA, ranked 6th to 8th, won, the safety zone disappeared under Hanwha, ranked 2nd.




There is one game between the third-place SSG and the sixth-place Samsung.

When Samsung lost five consecutive games on the 14th, it was closer to ninth place. At that time, the team was five games away from fifth-ranked KIA. He was chased by ninth-ranked Doosan for up to three games.

Since then, Samsung has nine wins, one draw and one loss.




In particular, the match against Doosan Bears in Jamsil on the 27th was perfect. Starter Garavito became a winning pitcher with one run (unearned) in five innings. From the sixth inning, Yang Chang-seop, Yuk Sun-yup, Bae Chan-seung, and Yang Hyun cleared the rest of the inning without losing a point. I saved the winning team, too. The batters had 13 hits and three home runs. Koo Ja-wook led the lineup with two hits, two homers and six RBIs in five at-bats. Diaz (2 hits in 6 at-bats), Kim Sung-yoon (2 hits in 3 at-bats), Kim Young-woong (2 hits in 4 at-bats), and Kang Min-ho (2 hits in 4 at-bats) played multi-hit.

Now that it's like this, you have to look at the third place and run. The fifth place is very likely to be eliminated from the wild card. Fourth place also has an extremely low probability of passing the semi-playoff. You have to finish third and go straight to the semi-playoff to increase your chances of going to the playoffs vertically.

Koo Ja-wook said "I really think the atmosphere takes up more than 50% of baseball. As a captain, I have nothing to do in this case. I don't feel good because I hit a home run, but I feel better because I can continue my winning streak."




Samsung has many young players, so it is particularly important to maintain the flow. Koo Ja-wook "I think a lot about what I should do if I lose in a row. There are times when silence flows beyond description. Regardless of the reason, it is the most important to just win."
