." he said.

At the time, manager Yeom expressed dissatisfaction with Lee Joo-heon's third base hit in the bottom of the fifth inning, with one out and a runner on first base, trailing 1-2.

Kang Seung-ho made a diving catch of Lee Joo-heon's ball and dropped the ball. He thought Moon Sung-joo, the first baseman who played second base, was caught, so he returned to first base, and Kang Seung-ho caught him again and threw him to second base to force him out.




Moon Sung-joo and Lee Joo-heon stepped on the first base side by side, and first-base referee Lee Young-jae declared a boulder. Moon Sungjoo is out. Lee Joo-heon was recognized as safe.

In the process, Lee Joo-heon was seen entering the batter's box with the bat again.

For the first time, Lee Seung-yeop left the dugout and heard an explanation from the judges. The results remained unchanged.

Coach Yeom stormed out of his seat again, raised his arms and protested that the referee's gesture declared a foul. In the process, the exit came out, and manager Yeom, who couldn't get rid of his anger, continued his protest by playing a deployment machine.

At the time, an LG official said "The third base umpire declared a pair at first, but Kang Seung-ho dropped the ball and raised his arms." The coach thought it was corrected with a foul, but the referee's explanation was not a foul, but a time, that is, a time when the play was all over. The coach explained that he was angry when the referee asked if he could declare the time when there was a double play", he explained.

On the other hand, the referee at the time declared a fair when Kang Seung-ho caught the ball and dropped it, and there was no further follow-up play after throwing it to second base for force-out, and the batter was already safe at first base, so the referee declared the time at that time. "The referee cannot declare the time during in-play."




The next day, Yeom apologized, saying, `I'm really sorry for the rash act in front of the fans.' Even so, "You have to respect to be respected. Regardless of the situation, I just needed to explain it." He also expressed regret.
