The balance of zero, which lasted until the beginning of the sixth inning, ended about 110 minutes after the start of the game. The main character was Lotte Giants Hwang Sung-bin.
Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung's winning move worked properly. Lotte scored the first run in the bottom of the sixth inning of the final game of the weekday series against KT Wiz at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 28th.
It was a match between Lotte starter Gamboa and KT starter Heyesus and two foreign left-handers with strong ball power. Both pitchers kept the mound without much shaking and continued their march to zero.
However, Hwang Sung-bin, who came out as a runner, broke the balance. In the bottom of the sixth inning, Lotte's leadoff hitter Na Seung-yeop walked to get on base, and Lotte Bench put Hwang Sung-bin as a pinch runner.
The next batter is Reyes. On Heyesus' fourth pitch, when he pitched with a ball count of 3B1S, first baseman Yoon Tae-soo pointed out Heyesus' balk.

He explained that there was no stopping motion when he was concerned about Hwang Sung-bin, the first baseman, in the motion of entering the pitch after seeing the cause of death. Heissus threw his glove at the moment, showing his intense emotion. However, KT manager Lee Kang-chul came out and listened to the referee's explanation, and later calmed Heyesus' mind by delivering it through interpretation.
Following Reyes' walk, Lotte ordered Son Sung-bin to make a sacrifice bunt. However, the ball floated as a foul on the side of the home plate, and KT catcher Cho Dae-hyun moved quickly and handled it with a fly ball. So far, the plays of both teams have been combined nicely.
And the next moment, Hwang Sung Bin's common sense??There's a play. Hwang Sung-bin suddenly tried to steal third base, even though he only accumulated an out count due to a bunt failure at the first and second bases with no outs. The embarrassed KT defense responded quickly, but third baseman Huh Kyung-min strongly bounced the throw back. Hwang Sung-bin came home and gave the team the first run.

It was a great play by Hwang Sung-bin, who completely caught the opponent off guard while the chance soon became a crisis. Commentator Choi Joon-seok also said "It was a situation where the bunt failed and the flow could be over." However, with one out and runners on the first and second bases, he said with his tongue, "What a great play to try to steal third base."
Lotte failed to score additional points as pinch hitter Jung Hoon grounded out to first base and Lee Ho-joon grounded out to third base. Therefore, it was Hwang Seong-bin's shot, which was even more valuable. It was a charming play worthy of the nickname "Hwang Sung-bin of Magic".
