Samsung smiled in the Daegu Samsung Lions–LG Twins game that drew attention as a "preview of the Korean Series."

Samsung beat LG 7-2 at home on the 18th, powered by focused hitting. A seven-game winning streak since the game against the NC Dinos in Daegu on the 10th. Jack O'Loughlin was ejected for a head shot, making mound management difficult, but the elite bullpen combined for shutout relief. By contrast, LG starter Lim Chan-gyu, who went 3-0 with a 2.74 ERA against Samsung last year, lowered his head after allowing his most runs in a single game this season.
