Hyundai Unicorns Win Korean World Series

After a four and a half hour of rain-soaked gameplay, the Hyundai Unicorns claimed the Korean Series title by fending off the Samsung Lions 8-7 in Game 9 of the Korean Series held in Seoul on Monday November 1, 2004.

The Hyundai Unicorns, who compiled a record of 75-53-5 to finish atop the regular season for a second consecutive year, won the series by 4-2 with three draws. It was the Unicorns' fourth title in nine seasons, since they joined the league in 1996. Among the eight clubs of the KBO, only the Kia Tigers, or former Haitai Tigers, have won more championships than the Unicorns as they have claimed nine Korean Series trophies since 1982.
