kt, Samsung Edges Out 8-7 in Nail-Biter… Korean Series Game 1
Published
In Game 1 of the Korean Series, the kt Wiz defeated the Samsung Lions 8-7. This game was a high-tension contest right down to the end.
kt took an eight-run lead after the middle of the game. However, its bullpen pitchers wobbled, allowing Samsung to score many runs. The big lead nearly disappeared, and the result remained uncertain until the final moments of the game.
In the end, kt closed out the game with a one-run margin and took Game 1. Holding on to the lead is a significant achievement, but the shaky performance of the bullpen remains an issue to be addressed going forward.
The Korean Series is played in a format in which the first team to win four games wins the championship. Both teams are expected to prepare for the next game and recheck their strength.
