Choi Won-young's home run became a dizzying shot for Hanwha as well. Hanwha led starting pitcher Ryan Weiss to a bullpen game early, dropping him in the second inning. Park Sang-won (1 scoreless inning), Kim Seo-hyun (1 scoreless inning), and Hwang Joon-seo (1 scoreless inning) were able to bring the atmosphere by targeting Kim Kyu-yeon, who blocked the first inning well.

Choi Won-young's home run helped LG to chase from 3-6 to 5-6. However, when he gave up two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, the score became 5-8.3 again.
