SSG was dragged to Kiwoom throughout the game.
The batting line left Kiwoom ace Ahn Woo-jin with two hits and no goals until the sixth inning, and starting Kim Gwang-hyun gave three points in the first half, and then gave up one more point to a fielder error in the sixth inning, pushing it down to 4-0.
SSG, who started chasing late with a two-run homer by Choi Jeong in the 8th, got a chance to walk and hit at the end of the ninth, 4-2, to get no-outs first and third bases.
And here, forty-year-old veteran Kim Kang-min stepped in as a pinch hitter, and he shot a three-point home run that crossed the left fence through Won-tae Choi's center two-seam, turning Landersfield into a crucible of enthusiasm.
SSG, who achieved a 5-4 comeback victory with a miraculous finish, leads with 3 wins and 2 losses, leaving only one win behind in 5 years since the predecessor SK in 2018.
Kim Kang-min, who made his first finish in the Korean Series after 22 years of his debut, was cheered as he won Game 5 MVP.
[Kim Kang-min / SSG Outfielder, Game 5 MVP: It's the first finish home run, so I don't know where or how the home run went.
I’m happy to be able to hit a home run on such a big stage, and I hope I can win by adding one more win.]
SSG, which has gained momentum with a thrilling comeback victory, aims to win the long-awaited Korean Series with the starting font today (8th).
Kiwoom, who played 14 postseason games and lost the victory he had won due to the fatigue of the bullpen, tries to escape from the brink with Appler.
