Suarez, who came back after 10 days from shoulder pain, overwhelms Hanwha with a terrifying stance.



With a fastball with a maximum speed of 150 km/h and a sharp curve, he struck out nine strikeouts up to the fifth inning and played three hits without a score, heralding a postseason performance.



LG, which smashed Hanwha 9-1 with 11 hits including Hong Chang-gi's 3 hits, continued their hopes of a comeback in the remaining three games by chasing second-placed KT by one game and leading Samsung by one-and-a-half games.

Samsung, which was aiming to solidify the lead, suffered a painful defeat in 6th place.



He was tied up without scoring a single point to Kiwoom starter Jeong Chan-heon until the 6th inning, and infielders made defensive mistakes every time they got in trouble, and they fell to their knees 8-3.



Kiwoom caught up with fifth-placed SSG by half a game, saving hopes of advancing to the postseason.

4th place Doosan won a golden victory over 5th place SSG.



This season, he showed concentration by scoring 6 points in only the 4th inning against the opponent's starting font, which had been reigning as a natural enemy this season, and center fielder Jung Soo-bin in the 7th inning broke SSG's will to pursue with a picturesque diving catch.



Doosan, with three wins in a row, has three games remaining and has raised the possibility of solidifying fourth place ahead of SSG by a game and a half.



2nd place KT failed to retake the lead after being caught by 7th place NC.



Lotte, who lost 8th to the KIA, was confirmed to be eliminated from the postseason for the fourth year in a row.
