The game remained close into the late innings, with both starters keeping the opposing lineup from producing a big inning.

Kia struck first. Kim Ho-ryung doubled to left leading off the first, moved to third on Kim Min-kyu’s sacrifice bunt and scored when Kim Sun-bin reached on an error by Doosan third baseman An Jae-seok. Harold Castro and Na Sung-bum then flied out to end the inning.

Kim Sun-bin finished with a double and an RBI, while Byun had two hits and a stolen base. Kim Ho-ryung also had two hits, including a double, and Kim Tae-gun added an infield single. Han Jun-su walked once and was hit by a pitch, but Kia could not add more against Logue.

Doosan answered in the third. Oh Myeong-jin doubled over the right fielder’s head and advanced on Jo Soo-haeng’s sacrifice bunt before scoring on Jo’s groundout. An Jae-seok and Kim Min-suk followed with singles, but Yang Eui-ji flied out to center to end the inning. The Bears tied it in the fifth. Jung Soo-bin singled in front of left field, stole second and scored on An Jae-seok’s single to left-center. An Jae-seok went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and was the central figure in the Doosan lineup. Kim Min-suk also had two singles, while Yang Eui-ji, Jung Soo-bin and Yunior Severino each added a hit. Son Ah-seop walked twice and Oh Myeong-jin doubled.

The decisive run came in the eighth. Doosan applied pressure with singles by Kim Min-suk and Yang Eui-ji and a walk to Son Ah-seop. The sequence produced the winning run before Park Chan-ho lined out to short to end the inning. Kia’s best late chance came in the seventh, when Park Min walked, Kim Tae-gun reached on an infield single and Byun Woo-hyuk singled to right to load the bases. Kim Ho-ryung popped out to second and Kim Min-kyu struck out, ending the threat. Kia went down in order in the eighth, and its ninth-inning rally never materialized as Han Jun-su struck out, Park Min grounded out to second and Kim Tae-gun struck out.

Logue’s outing set the tone. He had gone 4.2 innings in a no-decision against Kiwoom on Sept. 18, allowing two earned runs on five hits with one walk and one strikeout. Against Kia, he lasted 6.0 innings, scattered four hits, gave up two earned runs and struck out three. Oller, Kia’s starter, also worked 6.0 innings, yielding six hits, two earned runs, two walks and three strikeouts. Their duel kept the game tied into the late innings and forced both teams to lean on their bullpens.

Doosan’s bullpen preserved the lead. Takada Takuto threw 1.1 scoreless innings with no hits and two strikeouts. Lee Young-ha followed with 1.0 perfect inning and two strikeouts. Kim Taek-yeon allowed two hits and one walk with one strikeout over 0.2 innings. Kia’s bullpen got a scoreless inning from Jeon Sang-hyun, who struck out one. Cho Sang-woo recorded one out and walked one. Kwak Do-gyu allowed two hits over 0.2 scoreless innings. Lee Eui-lee gave up one earned run on one hit with one walk and one strikeout in 0.2 innings. The relief work helped Doosan protect its narrow advantage after Logue departed.

Kia finished with six hits. Kim Sun-bin doubled and drove in a run, Kim Ho-ryung doubled and singled, Byun Woo-hyuk singled twice and stole a base, and Kim Tae-gun had an infield single. Na Sung-bum struck out three times, and Han Jun-su struck out twice. Doosan’s nine-hit attack included An Jae-seok’s three hits, Kim Min-suk’s two singles, Yang Eui-ji’s single, Oh Myeong-jin’s double, Jung Soo-bin’s single and Yunior Severino’s single. Son Ah-seop walked twice. Jo Soo-haeng drove in a run on a groundout, and Park Chan-ho had a double-play ball in the second inning that helped Kia escape a jam.

The result left Kia at 69-56-2 and Doosan at 63-61-4. The Tigers had won two of their previous three games, including an 8-6 victory at NC on Sept. 20. The Bears had beaten Kiwoom 5-3 on Sept. 22. Logue’s previous start came Sept. 18 against Kiwoom, when he pitched 4.2 innings in a no-decision, allowing two earned runs on five hits with one walk and one strikeout. He was sharper against Kia, keeping the Bears close until the offense broke through. An Jae-seok’s three-hit night and two RBIs provided the main support for a Doosan lineup that collected nine hits and drew key walks. Kia had taken two of three from NC, winning 5-1 on Sept. 19 and 8-6 on Sept. 20 around a 2-0 home win over Kiwoom on Sept. 17. The Tigers had also lost at Shinsegae Landers 6-3 on Sept. 15.
