For SSG, who were ahead 3-2 until the bottom of the 6th inning, the sky was pouring down on them, and for LG, it was valuable time to break the trend of deepening defeat.

Shin Min-jae, who was on base before the game was stopped, immediately stole second base and reached third base when SSG catcher Cho Hyeong-woo"s throw to second base fell behind.
The next batter, Kim Hyun-soo, brought Shin Min-jae home with a hit down the right-field line to tie the score at 3-3, and with two outs and runners on third base, Bo-kyung Moon hit a comeback hit to left.
SSG, who lost the lead, suffered from injuries.

The ball fell to the ground and runner Bo-Kyung Moon scored on first base.
