Davidson posted 97 (strike 64) pitches. He threw a mixture of fastballs (41) and sliders (23), sweepers (14), curves (10), and folk balls (9). The maximum speed of fastballs was 151 km/h. Thanks to the batting average's scoring support, Davidson earned his second win of this season. He remained undefeated and has an ERA of 2.00.

He showed off his crisis management ability on the day. In the bottom of the first inning, Davidson was placed at the first and second bases with one out due to Lee Jae-hyun's grounder to the shortstop, Kim Heon-gon's hit to the left, and Koo Ja-wook's hit to the right. He struck out Kang Min-ho with a swing and miss, and overwhelmed Lewin Diaz with a grounder to the second base.

In the bottom of the second inning, Shim Jae-hoon grounded out to the second base and stole a base after Ryu Ji-hyuk struck out with a ball that hit Park Byung-ho's body. Shim Jae-hoon's hit was a double play course, but second baseman Ko Seung-min dropped the ball to force out the leading runner at the second base. Davison struck out his follow-up Kim Sung-yoon with a swing and miss after the game of eight pitches.

After Lee Jae-hyun struck out swinging in the bottom of the third inning, Kim Heon-gon had a hit to the left-center and a stolen base. He was initially ruled out after stealing, but the result was changed to safe after a video review. Koo Ja-wook's walk resulted in one out and runners on the first and second bases. Davidson defeated Kang Min-ho with a fly ball to the center field and Diaz with a ground ball to the shortstop.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, Park Byung-ho struck out swinging three pitches and Ryu Ji-hyuk's double to the left, resulting in one out and runners on second. He also struck out Shim Jae-hoon and Kim Sung-yoon. In the bottom of the fifth inning, Davidson allowed two outs and runners on the first and second bases by giving up a hit to Koo Ja-wook and a hit to the right after Lee Jae-hyun struck out swinging and Kim Heon-gon hit a fly ball to the center field. He ended the pitching without losing a point by cooking Diaz with a strikeout to swing and miss.

After the game, Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung said, "Starting pitcher Davison did well until the fifth inning without losing a point. Pitchers such as Park Jin-hyung and Park Si-young are keeping the center and playing really good roles in the bullpen."

Davison said, "I think this game is a victory for our team as a whole. It was positive because the opposing batters swung and missed a lot during the game."

"He showed good fastball speed in the early stages of the game, so he made good use of it. I think his attempt to mix breaking balls well and go out aggressively resulted in good results," he said. "I'm also grateful to catcher Information Geun who showed the best performance in today's offense. He is communicating well with Information Geun, and his pitching lead is excellent. In particular, he seems to be really aware of the pitch type that I want depending on the situation."

Starting as ninth batter and catcher on the day, Cho led pitchers including Davidson to a stable position. He also had three hits (one homer) and one RBI from four times at bat.

Davison said, "We're going in a good flow at the moment, and we'll try to make sure the team wins more."
