It didn’t work twice. KT’s “eldest brother” Park Kyung-soo delivered the decisive blow.
Park hit a two-run single in the bottom of the eighth inning of an 8-6 win over Lotte, trailing 3-5, at Sajik Stadium on June 26.
Park, who was not in the starting lineup, came to bat in place of Lee Ho-yeon with the bases loaded in the second inning. He struck out swinging against Lotte starter Park Se-woong. Trailing 3-5, the bases were loaded in the eighth inning.
Park lined a single to left off Lotte’s special firefighter Kim Won-joong. Oh Yoon-seok and Shin Bon-ki came home with time to spare. In the process, a throwing error allowed Kim Min-hyuk, who was on first base, to score and make it 6-5.

Lotte tied the game at 6-6 in the eighth with an RBI single by Yoon Dong-hee, but KT took advantage of an error and Shin Bon-ki’s sacrifice fly to center field in the bottom of the ninth to win 8-6.
“It was a tight game the whole time, and the guys were getting on base and creating opportunities, so I tried to be more focused at the plate,” Park said after the game.
“Above all, it feels good to be able to help the team achieve back-to-back winning series. We will continue to work together as a team to continue the winning series as we have been doing,” he added.
“I would like to say that all the players did a great job in today’s game,” said Lee Kang-cheol, “They didn’t let the mood get away from them and fought with focus until the end, whether they were pitchers or fielders. I would also like to thank the fans for their support until the end.
