Song Eun-beom pitched two innings in the bottom of the sixth inning in a Futures League game against Sangmu in Mungyeong on the 6th, recording three hits and one strikeout. The number of pitches is 20.
Song Eun-beom took the mound as the third pitcher after Yang Hyun, the second pitcher, in the bottom of the sixth inning with a 5-1 lead. There was a crisis of losing points, but he turned it over as a veteran.
Song Eun-beom, who received a hit in the left-center by the leader Park Sung-jae, allowed No. 7 Cho Se-jin to hit the middle, starting with a crisis of first and second bases with no outs. However, Ryu Hyun-in, a pinch hitter, was caught on a line drive to right field, and Ryu Seung-min, a ninth, hit a ground ball in front of the first base. At this time, runners on the first and second bases advanced to second and third bases. A single hit could give him two runs. Song Eun-beom struck out No. 1 Han Tae-yang with a swing and miss in 1B2S and passed the sixth inning without losing a point.
In the bottom of the seventh inning, he allowed another hit to the leadoff hitter, but there was no run again. He was hit to the left by Park Jung-hyun, the first runner. This time it looked dangerous. I have to meet the big guns, Han Dong-hee, number 3, and Lee Jae-won. But there was no problem for Song Eun-beom. Song Eun-beom caught Han Dong-hee with a fly to right field, and Lee Jae-eon ended the inning with a double play in front of the shortstop in the first pitch.
He was replaced by Choi Ha-neul at the bottom of the eighth inning with a 6-1 lead.
Song Eun-beom became a professional baseball player again at the age of 40 due to his indomitable fighting spirit.

After Song Eun-beom's first appearance, Samsung manager Park Jin-man said "I think I need to increase my sense of play because I have lost my sense of play. The pitch doesn't seem to have changed much from before"It's a veteran pitcher with a lot of experience in big games, so I think we'll need it someday. You need to boost your senses. In the first game, the ball power improved as the number of pitches increased. I thought I needed a sense" he said.
