The 2025 Futures League game between Doosan Bears and Goyang Heroes' second team took place on the 19th at Goyang Stadium. Doosan was leading 9-2 until the top of the 9th, and after pitcher Choi Jun-ho, Choi Jong-in took the mound.

Choi Jong-in allowed a left field hit to the first batter Eo Jun-seo and recorded an out on Lee Won-seok with a fly ball to center field. After one out and one on base, he gave up a two-run home run to Kim Woong-bin, making the score 9-4.

After giving up the home run, Choi Jong-in allowed a left field hit to Lim Byeong-wook but got Koh Young Technology with a swinging strikeout for the second out. There was only one out needed for victory.

However, he gave up a two-run double to Joo Sung-won and a two-run double to Kim Ji-seong consecutively, resulting in 2 additional runs. Still, the score was 9-6, and Doosan felt comfortable with the lead. The pitching coach visited the mound, but there was no pitcher change.

Goyang's designated hitter Shim Hwi-yun came up and got on base with a walk with two outs and a runner on second. Choi Jong-in induced Park Su-jong to hit a ground ball to shortstop, and it seemed like the game would end, but a throwing error by the shortstop allowed the runner on second to round third base and score. The score became 9-7.

Now, the lineup had cycled through. With two outs and runners on first and third, Eo Jun-seo hit a clutch single off Choi Jong-in, making it 9-8. A one-point game. Choi Jong-in allowed Lee Won-seok a three-run home run over the left field wall, resulting in an unbelievable walk-off loss for Doosan, which had led by 7 runs.

On the 17th, Choi Jong-in, who recorded 0⅔ innings with 2 hits, 1 walk, and 3 earned runs against KT in a practice game, became the losing pitcher, giving up 0⅔ innings with 7 hits (2 home runs), 1 walk, 1 strikeout, and 9 runs (4 earned) on this day.
