Samsung upset in final home game
Doosan needs to win both remaining games to advance to the semifinals
Doosan falls to 5th place after being swept by LG
NC wins its final home game of the season to stay ahead in the battle for third place. NC came from behind to beat Samsung 5-3 at Changwon NC Park on April 15. With the win, NC improved its record to 75 wins, 2 draws and 65 losses (0.536 winning percentage) and moved within 0.5 games of SSG, which did not play that day. Doosan, which was tied for third place with NC and SSG the day before, dropped to fifth place with a 2-5 loss to LG in the nightcap.
With NC, SSG, and Doosan all having two games remaining, NC has the most advantage in the fight for third place. NC will play its final two games of the season against sixth-place KIA on April 16 and 17 in Gwangju. If NC wins both games, they will clinch third place on their own. On the 16th, NC will pitch 'Ace' Pedi, who has 20 wins in the season, to solidify the third place.
Fourth-ranked SSG (74 wins, 3 draws, 65 losses) and fifth-ranked Doosan (74 wins, 2 draws, 66 losses) will play back-to-back games in Jamsil on the 16th and in Munhak on the 17th. Both teams need to go undefeated in the head-to-head to stay in the hunt for third place. SSG has announced Elias and Doosan has announced Alcantara as their starters for the 16th game.
SSG can take third place if they win both games and NC finishes with either a 1-1 tie against KIA or a two-game sweep. Doosan's third-place hopes are dashed if NC wins just one game. In the event of a tie in the final standings, the teams will be ranked in order of head-to-head record and head-to-head match points. Doosan tied NC with 8 wins and 8 losses, but scored 2 fewer points in those 16 games (64) than NC (66). Therefore, if both teams finish the season with the same record, NC will always be ranked higher.
