The protagonist of the victory was definitely Choi Joo-hwan.

On this day, Choi Joo-hwan played an active part with 2 hits and 3 RBIs in 5 at-bats, including the final home run.

With the score tied 0-0, Choi Joo-hwan hit a first-pitch fastball from SSG starter Roenis Elias in the third inning, with one out and runners on first base, and fired a two-run gun that went over the right wall. It was the final hit of the game that day.

Kiwoom ran away with a 3-0 lead in the third inning with two outs and no runners on base when Kim Hwi-jip hit a left-field solo shot.

SSG also responded with a home run.

In the 5th inning with no outs on first base, Choi Ji-hoon targeted Ha Young-min's fastball and went over the left wall.

In a situation where additional points were desperately needed, Choi Joo-hwan once again stepped up to solve the problem.

Choi Joo-hwan hit a timely hit with an RBI to right in the 7th inning with one out and 1st and 2nd bases when the team was trailing 3-2.

Elias led pitcher Hyeong-jong Lee to a grounder on first and third bases with one out, but committed a bad throw to second base, contributing one run.

Choi Joo-hwan, who played for SSG from 2021 to 2023 but was left off the list of protected players in the second round of the draft and transferred to Kiwoom, hit two home runs in the first three consecutive games of the season (9th to 11th) against SSG.

Kiwoom starter Ha Young-min pitched well, allowing 5 hits and 2 runs in 5 innings, earning his 3rd win of the season.

Kiwoom, who had been on a 7-game winning streak but lost to SSG on the 9th and 10th, broke the losing streak with today's victory. 성인웹툰
