The Samsung Lions scored all the starting batters in the fifth inning, heating up. It was the fifth playoff and 18th postseason record.
Samsung's batters were hot from the beginning with hits every inning. It's been 15 days since the final game of the season against LG in Daegu on September 28. The only real game was a practice game against Sangmu and a match between Cheongbaek and Cheongbaek.
"I wanted to play more practice games, but I didn't have the right conditionsLike Samsung coach Park Jin-man's regret, there were concerns about the sense of hitting that might have cooled down. However, when I opened the lid, the concern was unflinching.
Yoon Jung-bin, who was placed at No. 2 with a hidden card after one out in the bottom of the first inning, reported his team's first hit by hitting a double on the right-wing line in his first at-bat.
Koo Ja-wook's infield hit next to the second baseman made it 1st and 3rd bases with 1 out, and Diaz's center fielder sacrifice fly was first scored.
Samsung grabbed a big chance in the third inning when it was leading 1-0.
Top hitters Kim Ji-chan and Yoon Jung-bin hit back-to-back hits to first and third bases with no outs. Koo Ja-wook turned Choi Won-tae's high pitch cutter into a solid swing in 1B1S. At the moment of the hit, the blue wave of Lions Park fluctuated all at once.
A big hit that the batter was sure was a home run fell well over the fence in the middle of the right and under the electronic display.

LG, which took the lead by 0-4, fired a solo shot against starter Reyes after Oh Ji-hwan had two outs in the top of the fourth inning.
However, Samsung replaced Choi Won-tae with two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning when Kim Young-woong hit a superior solo home run and ran 5-1 again.
Samsung's batters' slugging power started early on. It wasn't the end. After one out in the bottom of the fifth inning, when Koo Ja-wook got on base with a walk after a full count match, Diaz aimed for Kim Jin-sung's fork ball and easily crossed the right fence. 120m two-run shot that makes it 7-1. It was Samsung's third cannon of the day. After Diaz's home run, Park Byung-ho reported his team's 10th hit with an infield hit. Kang Min-ho then completed all the starters' hits with a right-handed hit. The El Dorado chant, which should be resonated around the eighth inning, began to flow out at the end of the fifth inning.
Amazing batting cohesion.
Park Yong-taek, a member of the committee who was commentating on the broadcast, expressed his surprise, saying, `I don't remember the long-awaited team showing such a hot bat from the first game.' Samsung, which had 11 hits, including three homers, by the end of the fifth inning, is leading 7-1.
