DAEGU — Samsung Lions manager Park Jin-man expressed no concerns about his players' fatigue despite his club playing seven postseason games in a 10-day period, beginning in late October.

Park highlighted the team's determination and positive atmosphere following their second-game win, stating, "Our guys are really determined and the vibe is awesome after we won the second game the way we did."
