Jamsil Stadium did not split in half on this day alone. It has become a baseball stadium only for the LG Twins. The stands on the first and third bases were all filled with LG fans with glossy jumpers and yellow cheering towels.
The LG Twins held their last Cheongbaek match ahead of the Korean Series at Jamsil Stadium on the 22nd. On this day, spectators were brought in to prepare for the Korean Series. Free admission for only 1,000 won with a reservation fee. For the fireworks display for the opening ceremony of the Korean Series, a total of 21,343 seats were opened by emptying the six blocks on the left and right sides of the center outfield seats, and all the on-site sales were sold out.
LG fans cheered for the players while singing cheering songs. When the blue team composed of non-mainstream players attacked, there were cheering songs from Samsung and Hanwha, who would be LG's opponents, and fans sang hard to help increase the players' concentration. Hanwha cheerleaders continued to flow out in the 2, 4, 6, and 8th innings of Samsung cheerleaders, including 1, 3, 5, and 7.
LG confirmed a solid mound in the Cheongbaek match held amid enthusiastic cheering from fans. The batters, who wanted to burst from the first game of the Korean Series, broke out little by little as the game progressed.
The back team, which is the main player, consists of Hong Chang-ki (right wing), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Austin (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), Koo Bon-hyuk (left wing), and Park Hae-min (middle fielder). LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said on the previous day "The lineup against Cheongbaek is probably the first game of the Korean Series." he said.

It is important to what extent Moon Sung-joo, who is being treated for back muscle pain during training camp, will recover until the first game of the Korean Series, but so far, Koo Bon-hyuk is likely to play in left field. However, Moon Sung-joo stepped up as the designated hitter of the blue team. The Blue team will consist of Moon Sung-joo (designated hitter), Chun Sung-ho (left wing), Park Kwan-woo (right wing), Lee Young-bin (first baseman), Choi Won-young (middle fielder), Lee Ju-won (catcher), Kim Min-soo (third baseman), Kim Soo-in (second baseman), and Song Dae-hyun (striker). Coach Yeom said, `I put Moon Sung-joo in because he suddenly got better and wanted to hit it. I will hit about two to three at-bats.'
After starting pitcher Lim Chan-kyu pitched four innings, Lee Jung-yong (1 inning), Ham Deok-ju (1 inning), Jang Hyun-sik (1 ⅔ inning), Song Seung-ki (1 ⅓ inning) and Kim Young-woo (1 inning) threw.
The Blue Team's selection was originally Park Si-won, but it was changed to Kim Jin-soo. Manager Yeom said, `I started Kim Jin-soo to increase the number of pitches because Kim Jin-soo will come out as a long relief.' After Kim Jin-soo distributed three innings, Bae Jae-joon (one run in one inning), Park Myung-geun (one inning), Lee Ji-gang (two runs in ⅔ in one ⅓), Park Si-won (two runs in one inning), Kim Jin-sung (one inning) and Yoo Young-chan (one inning) all pitchers will appear until the end of the ninth inning.
Baek team starter Lim Chan-kyu had six hits in four innings, but he finished preparing for the Korean Series by striking out two and allowing one run (non-earned) without four outs. In the top of the first inning, after allowing a heavy hit to the first baseman Moon Sung-joo, first baseman Austin made an error to throw the ball under the mitt to No. 2 Chun Sung-ho, putting the ball underneath the mitt, putting him on the verge of the first and third bases with no outs and losing his first run after being hit by Park Kwan-woo. After that, he allowed a hit every inning, but finished without losing a point.

The white team was blocked by Kim Jin-soo and had no score, but Kim Hyun-soo hit a solo shot over the right fence from Bae Jae-joon, the second pitcher of the blue team, in the bottom of the fourth inning to tie the score 1-1.
Team Baek succeeded in turning the tables in the bottom of the sixth inning. Against Lee Ja-gang, he led 2-1 with an RBI single slightly over Kim Hyun-soo's second baseman's height with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, which was made by lead Hong Chang-ki's hit in left-center and Austin's walk, and Oh Ji-hwan hit a left double from changed pitcher Park Si-won to score another run.
The Blue Team also followed Jang Hyun-sik by one point in the top of the seventh inning after the leader Lee Joo-heon hit left-handed, advanced to second base with a wild pitch after two outs, and scored one point on pinch hitter Ham Chang-gun's right-handed hit.
Baek's team scored two more runs in the bottom of the seventh inning with Hong Chang-ki and Austin's timely hits to lead 5-2. Against Kim Young-woo in the top of the ninth inning, the Blue team scored one run with Kim Hyun-jong's double and Kim Jin-soo's hit, but they couldn't chase any further, so the white team won 5-3. However, there was the last pitcher to throw from the blue team, so it proceeded until the end of the ninth inning. Finishing Yoo Young-chan finished the game with a clean sheet against the white team, blocking one scoreless inning.
