KT Wiz is having another miraculous upset ‘season’.

KT won 5-3 against SSG Landers at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on Thursday, finally climbing into sixth place with an unbeaten record of 8-2 in its last 10 games.

With the victory, KT recorded its 46th win (47 W, 2 L, 2 D) and quickly moved into fifth place, ahead of the NC Dinos, who lost to the KIA Tigers earlier in the day. This is the first time the team has moved higher than seventh place since the start of the season. SSG Landers is tied for fifth place with KT with 47 points (46 wins, 1 draw). NC slipped to seventh place.

It was a match that started with an ace matchup, turned into chaos due to an ABS error, and ended with an upset.

The pitching battle was as fierce as the weight of both teams’ aces. KT took the lead in the bottom of the second inning with a single by Kim Min-hyuk and a double by Choi Jae-dae. However, they were unable to score as Hwang Jae-gyun and Shim Woo-joon struck out in consecutive at-bats.

SSG answered back in the top of the fourth inning. Choi Jung led off with a single and moved to third on a wild pitch and a catcher’s error. Heredia followed with an RBI single to tie the game at 1-1.

The first upheaval of the day came in the top of the sixth inning.

Shin-soo Choo led off with a single, and Choi Jung was hit by a series of ABS errors.

After Choi walked, another error put runners on first and second with nobody out. The first pitch was a wild swing, and the second pitch on a 0B1S count was controversial.

The umpires ruled, “ABS is ‘untraceable’. We will make our own call on (Heredia’s) second pitch,” and called the second pitch a strike.

But the ABS tablet PC in the dugout showed it as a ball. The managers of both teams jumped up and protested, and the umpire made an unprecedented “strike-ball reversal” call. 안전놀이터 According to the ABS, the ball in question (Heredia’s second pitch) was changed to a ball, and the umpires decided to play the game on their own.

But then something unexpected happened. Cuevas’ first pitch (Heredia 3) slipped out of his hand and became a body ball when he returned to the mound after a long stoppage. When the game was suspended again, KT replaced the pitcher with Sung Jae-heon. Cuevas had already thrown 94 pitches.

Meanwhile, his ABS had normalized.

After checking the condition, the umpires announced, “We will resume the game with ABS.”

SSG was unable to capitalize on the bases-loaded situation with three consecutive grounders to first base. On the mound, Kim Kwang-hyun pitched through the sixth inning, allowing one run on five hits.

SSG took the lead in the top of the seventh when Jung Jun-jae reached on an error by pitcher Kim Min-soo and the next batter, Choi Ji-hoon, hit a triple to right-center field. Choo Shin-soo followed with a fielder’s choice to make it 3-1.

But KT had a bigger comeback. In the bottom of the seventh inning, Hwang Jae-gyun singled, Rojas hit a high pitch to load the bases, Kim Sang-soo doubled, and Jang Sung-woo hit the game-winning two-run double to put runners on first and second to make it 5-3 KT.

KT then utilized the closer pairing of Kim Min-yeong-hyun and Park Young-hyun to close out the win.
