The possibility of reversal was also high because it led to the second, third, and fourth batting order with no outs. He took the opportunity to escape from the fifth consecutive loss.

Head coach Yeom Kyung-yeop excluded Moon Sung-joo, the second batter, and put in Heo Do-hwan, the pinch hitter. Moon Sung-joo’s batting average this season was 0.311 while Heo Do-hwan was 0.133.
