SSG Landers almost boarded the semi-playoff direct train.

SSG won the 2025 KBO League KT Wiz 5-2 at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 26th. KT has failed to win five consecutive games.

KT in fifth place and Samsung in fourth place both lost. Until the previous day, the ride between SSG and Samsung was only 0.5 games.




As a result, SSG dropped Samsung by 1.5 games and KT by 2.5 games. '3rd place' crossed the nine-fault line.

Starter White pitched five scoreless innings. From the sixth inning, Noh Kyung pitched hard in the first ⅓ inning and the first ⅔ inning. Cho Byung-hyun, who came out in the ninth inning, gave two points, but it did not affect the game. Kim Min put out the fire in the bases-loaded crisis.

Lee Woon recorded his 30th hold of the day. Along with Noh Kyung-eun (32 holds), the first KBO League '30 Hold Duo' was born.




After the game, SSG coach Lee Sung-yong commented "In an important game, the players won yesterday by turning the tide with their fighting spirit."

He praised the pitchers and hitters evenly.

Manager Lee Sung-yong said, `Even in a difficult situation, starter White did not flow and showed his crisis management ability. Gyeong-eun and Rowoon worked together for three innings. And Rowoon grew into a must-win group this year and achieved 30 holds, but he did well in important games. Congratulations."




In the attack, Hyo-seung took the early lead with a home run recorded by the first pitcher against him, and Hyung-woo's two-run timely hit in the fifth inning played a decisive role in the game. In addition, Taegon, who was put in as a pinch runner in the sixth inning, advanced to third base, setting the stage for a valuable additional point. It was a scene where the dedication to the team shone. I also sincerely thank the fans for their warm support until the end."
