With more than 2,2 spectators packed into the stadium for
the second consecutive day, SSG's central batting line caught fire from the first inning.
Choi hit a changeup off Lotte starter Barnes for a go-ahead solo shot.
In the third inning, Choi Jung had a chance to hit a hit, and Heredia and Choi Joo-hwan hit back-to-back timely hits to quickly build a four-point lead.
After breaking Lotte's will to chase with a clean defense in the sixth inning to put runners on base, Choi singled to score in the ninth inning after trailing by two runs, where Heredia hit a timely two-RBI double to wedge in the game.
Fueled by the firepower of the cleanup trio, who combined for five hits, five RBIs, and four runs scored, SSG beat Lotte 2-1 to take the lead with two consecutive wins.
