On the day of Naji-wan’s retirement ceremony, the ‘greatest’ (37), who finished 15 years of active duty with the most home runs (221) and second in RBI (862) by a Tigers player, KIA confirmed his participation in the postseason at home. It was a meaningful night.

KIA will play a wild card game against the 4th place in the regular league at 6:30pm on the 12th at the home of the 4th place team.

If the 4th place draws or wins, KIA is eliminated, and if KIA wins, the second round of wild card decision will be held simultaneously on the afternoon of the 13th to determine the playoffs.

Competing for 3rd place with Kiwoom Heroes, kt barely managed to keep the 3rd place lead in win rate, but going straight to the playoffs was not easy.

If Kiwoom in 4th wins the last game of the season against Doosan on the 8th, kt must win the other 3 games to secure 3rd place.

KT catcher Jang Seong-woo, who caught Choi Hyung-woo’s ground ball at first and second base, threw the ball high to first base.

When Kim Seon-bin flew out a sacrifice fly that tied 1st and 3rd base, Hwang Dae-in put the runner on 1st at 2nd and immediately picked up Kt’s Sok-Jun Sook-Jun’s changeup and sent it over the left fence.
