LG Twins' fifth starter Song Seung-ki blocked five innings.
In an away game against the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 29th, Song Seung-ki recorded six hits (two home runs), two walks, seven strikeouts and three runs in five innings. It seemed that he could throw 86 pitches by the fifth inning, but LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop quickly activated the bullpen.
Song Seung-ki entered the starting rotation for the first time this season, but he has been pitching well with the evaluation of being the same fifth starter as the first starter.
With three quality starts in five games, he recorded 2-1 with a 2.51 ERA.
On March 27, when he made his debut, he recorded seven innings of one hit, one walk and five strikeouts against Hanwha in Jamsil, and on the 23rd, he showed no-hit pitching with no hits, three walks and seven strikeouts in six innings against NC in Jamsil.
This time, his team will take the mound at a time when it has lost two consecutive games. Moreover, he pitched in all five previous games at Jamsil Stadium, his home ground, for the first time in an away game, and as he pitched in a new stadium in Daejeon, he could have difficulties in viewing or in an unfamiliar atmosphere.
Still, it deserved to be evaluated that it was stable enough considering that he was the fifth starter to prevent three runs in five innings.

At the end of the second inning, he threw a high first pitch fastball to the first five Chae Eun-sung, and then he got a heavy hit, followed by Lee Jin-young's change-up after a full count match. With no outs and runners on the first and second bases, Lee Do-yoon's fake bunt and slash became a ground ball in front of the first base, and first baseman Austin threw it to second base to force out.
With one out and runners on the first and third bases, Lee Jae-won was induced to fly to right field, and at that time, third baseman Chae Eun-sung homered and scored his first run. Shim Woo-joon struck out three pitches and finished the second inning.
The bottom of the third inning was also in crisis. Ahn Chi-hong struck out swinging with a fork ball, but he was driven to the first and second bases after a walk by Floral and a hit by Moon Hyun-bin. He caught Noh Si-hwan with a fly to right field and hit first and third bases. The match against No. 5 Chae Eun-sung continued to the full count, and in the meantime, Moon Hyun-bin succeeded in stealing second base to become the second and third base. A chance to score two points with one hit. Chae Eun-sung kicked a low change-up for the eighth pitch and hit it to the end of the fence in the middle, but Park Hae-min ran to the end and caught it.
He came from behind in the bottom of the fourth inning after being hit by a long ball. He was hit by a 142km outside fastball thrown by the leader Lee Jin-young for the third pitch in 2B and hit a tiebreaking solo shot over the middle fence, and after two outs, Shim Woo-joon of No. 9 allowed a come-from-behind solo shot slightly over the left fence. A 146km fastball from 2B1S made sense. 2-3.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, Moon Hyun-bin received a hit, but Roh Si-hwan was held scoreless by striking out catcher fly and Chae Eun-sung. And in the bottom of the sixth inning, he handed over the mound to Park Myung-geun, who was 'Mr. Zero'.
Although it is on the verge of losing because it is 2-3 behind, it deserved a good evaluation just by pitching on par with the opponent's ace-class foreign pitcher and leading him to a close game.
