The KIA Tigers won the last game of the three consecutive games during the week against the Samsung Lions at Gwangju Kia Champions Field on the 18th, 10-4, in a late-night blood fight against the rain. With this victory, KIA won three consecutive games by sweeping all two games against Samsung except for the game on the 16th, which was canceled due to rain. He is leading the game by spreading his gap to 6.5 games against Samsung, which was second in the series. On the contrary, Samsung lost two consecutive games, giving up the second place to the LG Twins, whose game was canceled due to rain, and falling to third place. Both teams were second and third without a ride before this match. KIA and LG are six games apart.
Rain was a huge variable. It was close from the beginning as the first and second place teams fought. KIA made the first run. In the bottom of the second inning, Byun Woo-hyuk hit a first RBI double, and he even homered on the wild pitch of Samsung's starting corner, leading to the early atmosphere.

However, there was a variable for Park Jin-man's exit. After Lee Jae-hyun's home run, Kang Min-ho's straight hit headed toward first base. Seo Geon-chang missed the ball, stepped on the base of the first base, caught Kang Min-ho, and threw to the second base. Tag status. The initial decision was safe. However, KIA applied for a video review, and the decision was overturned to out. Then coach Park kicked out of the dugout and protested. KIA shortstop Park Chan-ho might have blocked the second base to interfere with the base. I was able to request a video review of that part again, but I was ejected for protesting the results of the review without applying.

In the other stadium, as the game was nearing the end, both teams entered the game in the bottom of the third inning. The shoulders of the starting pitchers of both teams have already cooled down and flowed into the bullpen.

As he said, Samsung collapsed, and Seo Geon-chang's wedge two-run hit also broke out.
KIA scored an additional point in the bottom of the seventh inning with Choi Chae-heung's throwaway walk. Samsung was comfortable that Lee Sung-kyu hit a solo shot in the top of the eighth inning.

KIA was not embarrassed by the sudden starting steel plate and won a valuable victory with Lee Joon-young, Lee Hyung-beom, Kwak Do-gyu, Lim Ki-young, Kim Seung-hyun, and Kim Sa-yoon. Considering that Kim Do-hyun, who started against the Hanwha Eagles on the 19th, was a bullpen, he caught both rabbits with a strategy of cutting them short in preparation for two consecutive days of input.
Samsung's coach Chung Dae-hyun, who serves as the head coach and pitching coach, dragged the game out after Park's departure, but he was defeated by KIA in the pitching fight.
