The LG Twins' momentum hits the sky.
LG won 5-1 in its first showdown of the season against SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 18th.
The upward trend slowed down a bit after losing the match against the Samsung Lions the previous day, but it gained momentum again by overwhelming SSG in both pitching and hitting. It was 17 wins and 4 losses since the opening. There was no losing streak. The gap with the second-place Lotte Giants is 5.5 games.
Starting Chirinos won his fourth victory of the season with a one-run pitch in seven innings. Oh Ji-hwan shone in the lineup. He played four hits in the sixth inning, including the final shot. With batters struggling with SSG starter Park Jong-hoon, he led the game by playing a hit show from the start alone.
It's the first time Oh Ji-hwan has been selected as an interviewee for Su-hoon after the game while winning 17 times. It's not because Oh Ji-hwan is bad, but because other LG players did well, it received less attention. As a former captain, he enjoys his colleagues doing well. This is LG's scary competition system, in which four hits in the final shot are selected as the MVP of the game at the most.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop also smiled broadly. Coach Yeom said, `Chirinos pitched perfectly as the first starter. The winning team also kept their innings clean" he complimented.
Coach Yeom went on to "Oh Ji-hwan's home run allowed us to bring the atmosphere of the game to our side. With additional points needed, Moon Sung-joo, Oh Ji-hwan and Park Dong-won scored important RBIs to make a big inning. Oh Ji-hwan led the lineup with four hits, and I hope I can continue this atmosphere in the next game" he said.
Finally, Coach Yeom said "It was a seesaw game atmosphere at the beginning of the game, and I want to praise the players for their concentration in defense and base running."," he added.
