SSG Landers won both consecutive games against the NC Dinos at Changwon NC Park on the 25th and 26th. Even if the elimination from the semifinals was confirmed, NC played a game that did not give up until the end by putting Kyle Hart and Eric Jokish in two consecutive SSG games.
However, SSG won both games as it regained the good pitching and pitching balance of the batters and pitchers that exploded in the chance.
In the meantime, they tied for fifth place again. After winning 5-1 against Lotte on the 24th, KT took a break because there was no game schedule on the 25th and 26th. While KT was resting, SSG won two consecutive games and eliminated the game difference, catching up to fifth place jointly.
As of the 26th, the two teams achieved a tie of 50% in 142 games with 70 wins, 2 draws, and 70 losses.

First of all, the team that wins both games is unconditionally advantageous. KT will face Kiwoom in Suwon on the 27th. KT announced William Cuevas as the starting pitcher and Kiwoom announced Jeon Joon-pyo as the starting pitcher. SSG will take a day off and move to Daejeon.
KT will play its second game against Kiwoom on the 28th and the final regular season game, and SSG will face Hanwha on the same day. Since then, SSG has one more game left. A home game against Kiwoom is waiting on the 30th.

Both teams lose both games, or if they win both games, they end up tied. In that case, a ranking match will be held. The final wild card advance team will be determined through a single round match of the ranking match.
Ranking fights really dry the blood until the end. It is expected to be the best point to watch in the remaining games, whether KT and SSG will be able to go to the ranking match after winning both of the remaining two games or whether the team will be eliminated first.
