KIA made it 7-0 in the bottom of the fifth inning when Kim Sun-bin rolled up a 141km hit fastball that came into the middle of the 2B match against Lee Joon-ho, leading to a solo shot to the left.
Meanwhile, heavy rain began to fall near the end of the fifth inning, and the game was suspended immediately after the end of the inning. After 20 minutes of heavy rain, the referee appeared for the ground check. However, he judged that it was difficult to proceed with the game anymore due to the already wet ground, and eventually declared a rain cold game, ending with KIA's victory.
