- The Doosan Bears lost 2-3 to the SSG Landers in Incheon, extending their losing streak to five games.
- Doosan scored only two runs during the previous four losses, and their offensive struggles continued against SSG.
- NC’s seven-game winning streak cut the gap between the teams from eight games to 3.5, intensifying the playoff race.
Doosan’s playoff hopes are suddenly wobbling. The Bears lost 2-3 to the SSG Landers at Incheon’s SSG Landers Field on the 5th, falling into a five-game losing streak.
The slump has been particularly damaging at the plate. Doosan scored only two runs across the previous four defeats, and its offense again struggled against SSG.
At the same time, NC has won seven straight games. That run has rapidly reduced the gap between the teams from eight games to 3.5, raising the prospect of a dramatic shift in the postseason race.
