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

Samsung beat LG 7-2 in a home game on the 18th behind a focused lineup. A seven-game winning streak since the game in Daegu against the NC Dinos on the 10th. Jack O'Loughlin was ejected for a head shot, making bullpen management difficult, but the elite relievers combined for a scoreless outing. Meanwhile, LG starter Im Chan-kyu, who went 3-0 with a 2.74 ERA against Samsung last year, bowed his head after allowing his most runs in a game this season.
