There was no waiver for the SSG Landers in fall baseball. He tied for fifth place.
In the final game of the season against the Kiwoom Heroes at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 30th, SSG won 7-2 with Choi Jung, who swept six RBIs alone with a two-run shot and a wedge full base, and Anderson, who pitched five scoreless innings as a starter. With the victory, SSG finished with 72 wins, 2 draws and 70 losses in 144 games, ending the season with KT Wiz and both wins, no losses. The two teams will have a single match of tiebreakers in Suwon on the 1st for the fifth place. The team that won the game will be the final fifth, and will play the wild card match against the Doosan Bears from the 2nd.

Kiwoom was at the bottom, but it could not be easy. On the 27th and 28th, SSG's competition team played two consecutive games against KT. He gave up two wins to KT at the time, but it was a huge blood clot that Kiwoom was able to win in both games.
|
However, SSG did not easily solve the game. In the bottom of the first inning, he failed to take advantage of the first and third bases with one out, and in the second inning, he failed to score the first point with a chance with one out and second base.
Fortunately, Anderson, who was hit hard in the LG Twins match just before, overwhelmed Kiwoom's batters by spraying a fastball that was well over 150 kilometers. If Kiwoom had given up the first run, the game would have been twisted, but he aimed for Anderson's opportunity in good pitching.

This wasn't the end of it. SSG, which made it 3-0 with Park Sung-han's timely hit in the fourth inning, brought the victory completely with Choi Jung hitting a grand slam once again against Kim Dong-hyuk, a two-out bases-loaded opportunity. Choi Jeong's 15th grand slam. And the 28th consecutive homer came when it really mattered. From Kiwoom's point of view, it was regrettable that Kim Hye-sung made a throwing error when Jung Joon-jae grounded out with two outs and runners on the first and second bases. The inning should have ended, because Choi Jeong's home run hit immediately after this error.

A day later, SSG tried to minimize bullpen bleeding with consecutive throws by Han Doo-sol, Seo Jin-yong, Park Si-hoo and Jung Dong-yoon in preparation for the tiebreaker. However, it was Oketi ahead of the doomed KT match that he was on the verge of loading the bases with the last two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and eventually put in closer Cho Byung-hyun. Still, it was profitable to cut Anderson, who was tired, with five innings at the end of the season, and save his physical strength. It was possible because of Choi Jeong's home run.

Kiwoom will play two games against KT and the final game against SSG at the end of the season, and suddenly grab the fifth-place fight casting boat. They lost all three of these games, putting the two teams in the fifth place game fairly.
