Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 13th, when the exhibition game between the Lotte Giants and the Hanwha Eagles was held.
Attention was drawn to Lotte players' batting training before the game. Lotte players were practicing batting to the rhythm of LG Twins foreign pitcher Chirinos' pitches played on the screen.
LG, Lotte, and even Hanwha have yet to officially announce their starters for the opening game. According to the rotation flow, Lotte and Hanwha are likely to start the opening game.
Lotte's opponent in the opening series, which will be held in Jamsil on the 22nd, is LG. Lotte expects to meet Chirinos in the opening series. Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung laughed, saying, `I don't know what's going on.'
The exhibition game was as intense as the regular season.
Starting with Ryu Hyun-jin and Davison's starting showdown, both teams had a sincere confrontation with the main hitters and must-win groups. Until the fifth inning, Jeon Joon-woo's come-from-behind two-run shot, Noh Si-hwan's come-from-behind two-run shot, and Yoon Dong-hee's tie solo shot continued to tie the game 3-3.

After the game, Lotte's team continued its special training. As the opening approaches, only more fierce competition and training remain.
Lotte's Son Ho-young, Park Seung-wook, Ko Seung-min, and Hwang Sung-bin have begun batting training. Ko Seung-min, who returned from injury, is recovering as conservatively as possible, but has participated in all training, including hitting, from this day on.
On the side of the ground, Son Sung-bin devoted himself to basic skills and throwing to second base while wearing all catcher equipment. On the third base side, Han Tae-yang and Choi Hang sweated under coach Kim Min-ho's fun-go.
In the bullpen, Na Kyun-an, Park Se-hyun, Song Jae-young and Lee Byung-joon, who did not take the mound on the day, warmed up.
The preparation is done. All that's left is the opening of the regular season.
