SSG Landers came from behind to win with Oh Tae-gon's pinch-hit three-run shot and rose to fourth place.

SSG came from behind to win 5-4 with pinch hitter Oh Tae-gon's come-from-behind three-run shot at the bottom of the sixth inning, trailing 0-2 at home against the Samsung Lions at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 6th.

He lost after three home runs the previous day, but won by one point even after allowing three solo home runs. SSG, which recorded 51 wins, 4 draws and 48 losses, rose to fourth place alone, beating the KIA Tigers, who lost to the Lotte Giants on the day.




SSG, which had Drew Anderson as the first foreign starter, set up a starting lineup with Park Sung-han (striker), Ahn Sang-hyun (second baseman), Choi Jung (third baseman), Eredia (designated hitter), Han Yu-sum (right wing), Hyun Won-hoi (first baseman), Jihoon Choi (middle fielder), Chae Hyun-woo (left wing) and Cho Hyung-woo (catcher) against Samsung's left-handed starter Lee Seung-hyun, who will start for the first time in a month.

He failed to score the first point in the early chance. Ahn Sang-hyun's left-handed hit and Herredia's double in the bottom of the first inning gave him a chance to hit second and third bases with two outs, but Han Yu-sum stepped down with a fly to center field, and made a two-out third base with an infield hit and a steal to second base in the bottom of the second inning, but Cho Hyung-woo struck out.

He lost the first run in the top of the fourth inning. After giving up a walk to Kang Min-ho after one out, Kim Young-woong allowed a double to left-center to give up one run. Fortunately, he handled the follow-up hitter and prevented additional runs. While SSG was blocked by Lee Seung-hyun, Anderson was hit by Diaz. Diaz rolled up Anderson's low curve ball in the top of the sixth inning to make a home run over the right fence. It was 0-2.




However, SSG got a chance from left-hander Lee Seung-hyun in the bottom of the sixth inning and made a come-from-behind turnaround from right-hander Lee Seung-hyun. The first-runner Choi Jeong's walk and Han Yu-sum's right-handed hit created a chance for runners on first and third bases with one out.

Samsung tried to put out the fire by raising right-hander Lee Seung-hyun. However, Hyun Won-hoe hit a left-handed hit, and SSG scored the first point. 1-2. Jihoon Choi steps back with a fly to left field, with two outs and runners on first and second base.

SSG put up Oh Tae-gon as a pinch hitter to Chae Hyun-woo's at-bat. And Oh Tae-gon hit a 134-kilometer slider in the middle of the second pitch at the ball count 1B, hitting an upset three-run home run over the center fence. 4-2 at once.




The bullpen was activated from the seventh inning with SSG starter Anderson blocking four hits (one home run) with three walks and six strikeouts and two runs until the sixth inning. After Noh Kyung-eun stopped the top of the seventh inning without allowing a run, Choi Jeong's double in the bottom of the seventh inning made it 5-2.

Samsung's slugging power was also terrifying. In the top of the eighth inning, Kim Sung-yoon and Diaz hit a solo shot from SSG's setup man Lee Rowoon. 5-4 by one point.

However, SSG had closer Cho Byung-hyun. Cho Byung-hyun, who came up in the top of the ninth inning, caught the lead Lee Jae-hyun and Soo Soo-ho with consecutive right field flies, and ended pinch hitter Lee Chang-yong with a swing and miss strikeout and recorded his 21st save of the season.

SSG manager Lee Soo-yong said, "(Oh) Tae-gon's three-run homer today enabled us to come from behind to win."At the bottom of the sixth inning, the (current) committee scored an RBI single to open the attack." Since then, Taegon's three-run home run has been hit, bringing the atmosphere of victory. Taegon is the hero of today's game. The first inning was also a starting player for the first time in a long time, but he contributed to the offense with two hits and an RBI"He praised the batters for turning the tables in the bottom of the sixth inning.

"Anderson pitched well with two runs in six innings. Congratulations on your victory. I was able to win because (Roh) Kyung-eun and (Cho) Byung-hyun, who followed me, blocked me well"I complimented the pitchers who kept their victory.
