Yesterday's must-win group and today's ace collapsed one after another. However, even at the bottom of despair, his will to play for the first fall baseball in seven years was blazing.

The Lotte Giants produced a drama that turned the tables and decorated the three consecutive games against the Hanwha Eagles with a winning series.

Lotte won the match against Hanwha at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 15th by 16 to 9 after a slugfest in which they exchanged 28 hits, including two homers.

With the victory, Lotte recorded its 61st win (68 losses and 4 draws) and decorated the weekend's three consecutive games against Hanwha with 2-1 wins and 1 win, approaching the fifth-place Doosan Bears, the final line of fall baseball, by three and a half games. On the other hand, Hanwha's outlook for autumn baseball has become very dark as it has lost its 71st game (61 wins and 2 draws), ranking eighth by a gap of one and a half games with Lotte.

This time, manager Kim Tae-hyung laughed in a teacher-studded match between Kim Tae-hyung and Kim Kyung-moon and two major players representing Korean professional baseball. Hwang Sung-bin, who started as a leadoff for the first time in a long time, performed his role perfectly by achieving four runs with two hits and two walks in three at-bats, and second batter Ko Seung-min received it with three hits and six RBIs. Reyes, the fourth batter, continued his challenge of 200 hits with three hits, including a two-run shot that turned the tide.

Yoon Dong-hee, who was placed at No. 7, also played a part in the devastation of the Hanwha mound with two hits, one walk and four RBIs. It is also notable that Roh Jin-hyuk played an active role with two hits and two RBIs for the first time in a long time.

In particular, starter Wilkerson was shaken up by allowing six runs until the sixth inning, but the hard work of pushing without changing was effective. As a result, Wilkerson pitched 98 pitches until the sixth inning, reducing the burden on the bullpen, which was heavily consumed the previous day,

On the other hand, Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon's choice, believing in Weiss, who continued his quality start (more than six innings and less than three earned runs) in six consecutive games, was wrong as a result. Weiss collapsed with 10 hits and 10 runs in three ⅔ innings, his worst performance since his debut.

The initial momentum was in Hanwha's side. He had a full base chance with no outs from the first inning, but failed to score additional points other than Noh Si-hwan's sacrifice fly. Lotte immediately tied the game with Ko Seung-min's timely hit following Hwang Sung-bin's triple in the bottom of the first inning.

Hanwha took the lead again in the second inning with Lee Do-yoon's double and Lee Jin-young's timely hit Kwon Kwang-min's two-run shot. In the third inning, Jang Jin-hyuk's timely double and Lotte shortstop Park Seung-wook's error were combined to widen the gap to 6-1.

It was just the beginning of the blood fight on this day. Lotte scored nine points in the bottom of the fourth inning alone, surprising Hanwha fans.

Starting with Reyes' triple, Jeon Joon-woo, Na Seung-yup, Yoon Dong-hee, and Noh Jin-hyuk's hit followed, quickly approaching 5-6, one point difference. With the bases loaded, Ko Seung-min succeeded in turning over 8-6 with a three-run triple, and Reyes' two-run shot also broke out. Hanwha starter Weiss faced the reality of losing 10 runs as he was beaten wildly.

Hanwha faced Lotte's second pitcher Na Kyun-an in the top of the seventh inning with an error by Lotte shortstop Noh Jin-hyuk, a hit by Kwon Kwang-min, a wild pitch, and a walk by Noh Si-hwan, but again scored only one point with Chae Eun-sung's sacrifice fly.

Lotte scored six runs again in the bottom of the seventh inning to decide the game. After Reyes got on base with a hit, pinch runner Jang Doo-sung stole second base, and Jeon Joon-woo's walk and Na Seung-yeop's hit loaded the bases with no outs. Yoon Dong-hee's two-run timely hit, Roh Jin-hyuk's timely hit, and Ko Seung-min's two-run timely hit followed with the bases loaded with Hwang Sung-bin's walk.

Hanwha followed up with two outs in the top of the ninth inning with four consecutive hits by Ha Joo-seok, Kim Tae-yeon, Hwang Young-mook, and Jang Jin-hyuk, but failed to gain strength anymore.
