SUWON, South Korea, Nov. 4 (Yonhap) -- The Samsung Lions edged out the KT Wiz 3-...
In a dramatic turn of events during the Korean Series, the Samsung Lions secured an improbable 3-2 victory over the KT Wiz on Wednesday afternoon, thanks to a crucial error by Wiz second baseman Oh Yoon-suk. This win effectively evened the series at 1-1. Held before a packed house of 17,700 fans at KT Wiz Park in Suwon, the game unfolded as the Lions capitalized on Oh's misplay to score the decisive run.
Lewin Diaz masterfully drove in two runs, batting an impressive 4-for-5, with two singles, a double, and a triple, just one home run short of achieving the first cycle in Korean Baseball Organization postseason history. With the best-of-seven series now heading to Daegu, the Lions will be hosting the next three games, with Game 3 scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Friday, followed by Games 4 and 5 on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, all at Daegu Samsung Lions Park.
