SSG, which is half a game behind fifth-place kt, has created opportunities from the beginning.

He tapped first and third base in the first inning, third base in the second inning, and diligently, and finally Choi Jung, the leading hitter, came forward as a troubleshooter.

In the third inning, he beat Kiwoom's second pitcher, Kim Sun-ki, and hit a two-run home run over the left fence.

It's Choi Jeong's 36th cannon of the season, which came out in 19 days.

Choi Jeong exploded again in the fourth inning with the bases loaded opportunity made by taking advantage of Kim Hye-sung's throwing error.

This time, he pushed the crowd to the center of the right with a grand slam.

SSG manager Lee Soo-yong, who predicted victory, took Choo Shin-soo to the plate as a pinch hitter.

"Legend," who announced his retirement after this season, waved his bat with moist eyes and said goodbye to his fans.

SSG, which went all-out for days saying, "We live one day, there is no tomorrow," won 7-2 in the final match, catching romance.

SSG, which gained momentum with four consecutive wins in the last minute, will play its first "fifth place decider" against kt.

[Choi Jeong / SSG infielder: If we lose tomorrow, it's over, so we're going to try to win tomorrow somehow. As (Chu) Shin-soo said earlier, I will continue to win and work hard to play baseball in Incheon again.]

KIA Kim Do-young's great challenge ended unfortunately.

He aimed for "40 home runs-40 steals" for the second time and first time as a native player, but he failed to complete two home runs in the final game of the regular season.
