The fortunes of Gyeonggi Airlines changed overnight. Gyeonggi Aviation was down 0-3 the day before, but the team fought back with a single run in the top of the fourth inning after Seoul Motors attacked with one out. After tying the game in the bottom of the fifth, 12 batters reached base in the top of the sixth for an eight-run big inning. With runners on first and third, a single by Lim Jun-woo (3 years), a push single by Kim Jae-hoon (1 year), and an infield grounder by Choi Min-seo (3 years) tied the game at 4-4, and then with the bases loaded, Lee Jung-hyun (2 years) hit a game-winning two-run double.
Kyungpook State showed off its fearsome backstop. In the top of the ninth inning, tied 4-4, No. 6 Jung Hee-chan (2) and No. 7 Jung Jae-min (2) hit back-to-back singles, and No. 8 Park Hyun-hoo (2) drew a walk. With the bases loaded, Song Seo-bin (2) came to the plate and pushed a first pitch from opposing ace Kim In-woo (3) over the plate for a two-run double down the right field line. With a 6-4 lead, Kyungpook State left-hander Kim Byung-jun (2) retired the next three batters in the bottom of the ninth to end the game.
Pohang Steel scored four runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to take a 2-1 lead, including a two-run double by No. 4 Lee Jun-hyung (3).
