In Game 2 of the KBO postseason first round, the Kia Tigers secured a 6-3 victory over the LG Twins at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field in Gwangju, South Korea. The offense for the Tigers was impressive, with five runs scored in the first inning alone. Starting pitcher Adam Oller displayed strong performance, pitching six solid innings for the Tigers on Sunday.
Following their win, the Tigers are now just one game away from clinching the best-of-five series in the KBO postseason. If they emerge victorious, the series will conclude at the Twins' home stadium in Seoul, Jamsil Baseball Stadium. This will be the final game played at Jamsil, a 44-year-old stadium that is scheduled for demolition after the completion of this season.
Since the inclusion of this round in the postseason in 1989, there have only been two instances where a team managed to rally from dropping the first two games to take the series: the 2010 and 2013 Doosan Bears.
