The Samsung Lions took the lead by winning five consecutive games. Jeon Byung-woo (34), who is opening his career high season, led the lineup with four RBIs. Samsung, which had 10 walks on the day following the previous day, secured a win.

Samsung won 13-5 in an away game between the Hanwha Eagles and the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 15th amid Jeon Byung-woo's two-for-five, four-run performance.

Samsung, which won five consecutive games, recorded 10 wins, 4 losses and 1 draw, beating the LG Twins (10 wins and 5 losses) who lost 0-2 to the Lotte Giants on the day. On the other hand, Hanwha lost five consecutive games and recorded six wins and nine losses. He tied for seventh with Lotte.

On the previous day, he played 18 pitches, the most in KBO history, and won without a single timely hit. The atmosphere between Samsung and Hanwha, where the victory rolled in, led to their performance from the beginning of the game.

Samsung ruthlessly targeted Hanwha starter Wilkel Hernandez. Starting with Kim Ji-chan's walk with one out, Choi Hyung-woo's double, Diaz's walk, Ryu Ji-hyuk and Kang Min-ho, Jeon Byung-woo, Lee Jae-hyun, Hong Hyun-bin and Park Seung-gyu had five consecutive hits.

In the end, Hernandez, who caught only one out count, was substituted. The Hanwha Eagles put Hwang Joon-seo on the mound. Samsung, which added Kim Ji-chan's sacrifice fly, scored seven runs and made a big inning in the first inning alone.

Hanwha also launched a counterattack. In the bottom of the second inning against Samsung starter Yang Chang-seop, he made the bases loaded with Lee Do-yoon's hit, Choi Jae-hoon's walk, and Shim Woo-joon's hit, followed by Lee Won-seok's two-run timely hit and Jonathan Ferraza's additional timely hit. Samsung also eventually replaced its starting pitcher in the second inning. Jang Chan-hee took the mound and grounded Kang Baek-ho to third base to end the long second inning.

A lull followed later. Hanwha Hwang Joon-seo pitched three innings with two hits, two outs and four strikeouts, and Jang Chan-hee blocked three ⅓ innings without losing a run with one hit and four strikeouts.

Samsung sealed its victory early on in the attack in the top of the fifth inning. Again this time, he started with Park Seung-gyu's walk with one out, followed by shortstop Shim Woo-joon's catch error, setting up the bases, and widened the gap to 11-3 with Lewin Diaz's pushing walk, Ryu Ji-hyuk's timely hit, and Jeon Byung-woo's two-run timely hit.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, Huh In-seo hit a two-run home run (the second of the season) to Baek Jung-hyun in the attack, but he couldn't chase anymore, and rather gave up one more point in the top of the seventh inning due to a series of walks and Peraza's painful catch error.

After Yang Chang-seop, Jang Chan-hee actually played the role of the starting pitcher, and Baek Jung-hyun, Bae Chan-seung, and Miya Yura were in charge of one inning each. Samsung ran one more point in the top of the ninth inning with pinch hitter Kim Heon-gon's timely hit, and Lim Ki-young took the mound and neatly blocked one inning, enjoying the joy of leading the game alone.
