Weiss took the mound as a starter in Game 2 of the postseason playoff against the Samsung Lions at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 19th and allowed nine hits, two walks, four strikeouts and five runs in four innings.
For Hanwha, the result was shocking. In the first game held on the 18th, Hanwha's starting pitcher Cody Ponce was shaken by six runs in six innings. Six runs are Ponce's most in a game. He played as the strongest pitcher in the league by winning 17 consecutive games this season and winning 4 pitchers, but the bat of the Samsung batter, who gained concentration in the postseason, was fierce.

The overall pitching was not bad, with the maximum fastball speed of 156km. Swiffer (18), curve (11) and change-up (10) were mixed as breaking balls.
We got off to a good start. He neatly stopped the first inning with three batters, and the batters also supported a point in the bottom of the first inning.
He looked anxious from the second inning. After one out, Kim Young-woong hit a hit and the first on-base hit came out. He then struck out Lee Jae-hyun, but Kim Tae-hoon's hit put him on the verge of first and third base. He passed without losing a point while handling Kang Min-ho's fly ball.
He was properly attacked in the top of the third inning. Leading hitter Ryu Ji-hyuk was walked, and Kim Ji-chan and Kim Sung-yoon's consecutive hits put them on the verge of loading the bases with no outs. Koo Ja-wook's ground ball caught the first baseman at second base, but the third baseman came home and tied it 1-1. Weiss, who added one run due to Diaz's timely hit, then allowed Kim Young-woong to make a two-run timely hit and allowed the fourth run. He stopped the flow by striking out Lee Jae-hyun. However, Kim Tae-hoon hit a hit and became a crisis at first and third bases again. He finished the long third inning by throwing out Kang Min-ho with a fly ball to the second base.

He got over the hump, but he couldn't continue his pitching. Weiss, who recorded 84 pitches, was replaced by Cho Dong-wook in the top of the fifth inning and came down the mound.
Hanwha suffered a shocking result that the best weapon in autumn baseball became an unexploded bomb.
