It's not amateur baseball, but even the team collapsed due to a fatal defense error that should not have come out of professional baseball.

The match between the Samsung Lions and the KIA Tigers at Daegu Lions Park on the 24th. The game, which was followed by a tense 5 to 14 points, tilted toward Samsung in an instant in the sixth inning with KIA center fielder Choi Won-joon's fatal defensive error.

The previous day, KIA had eight hits but scored two points due to a failed follow-up hit, losing 7-2. On the contrary, Samsung scored 12 hits and seven points as its batters' concentration, including two home runs by Kim Young-woong and Park Byung-ho, revived.




He gave up the game, but the fielders did not make defensive errors, and he had to be satisfied that Wisdom, the No. 1 home run player, hit a double that hit the Lyons Park fence twice.

Hwang Dong-ha, who took the mound as a substitute starter the next day, allowed seven hits and four runs in 3.2 innings, followed by Kim Dae-yu, who took the mound, allowing one run in 1.1 innings. The match, which had been tight by 5 to 14 points until then, collapsed in an instant with a decisive defensive error in the sixth inning.

In the top of the sixth inning, KIA's leadoff hitter Wisdom started the chase with a solo shot, but Samsung's leadoff hitter Park Byung-ho hit a solo shot against the changed pitcher Kim Geon-guk in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Shim Jae-hoon's hit and Lee Jae-hyun's walk after one out, Kim Ji-chan, who had three hits the previous day, hit the cutter in a timely manner to produce a hit.

When a fast runner on both the first and second bases started at the same time as a hit, center fielder Choi Won-joon also ran out quickly to handle the hit. At this time, center fielder Choi Won-joon, who made a wrong prediction of the bound, stretched out his glove, but passed it forward without catching a ball.

While the ball rolled to the front of the fence, all runners on base scored by stepping home. Kim Ji-chan, who finished the hit, also ran home taking advantage of center fielder Choi Won-joon's error. Center fielder Choi Won-joon, who dedicated a hit that could have been prevented by one point to three points due to a fatal defensive error, exhaled wildly with a disappointed expression.

After center fielder Choi Won-joon's defensive error, starting with second batter Kim Sung-yoon's hit, Koo Ja-wook and Diaz also hit consecutive hits to push KIA. In the sixth inning alone, 13 batters came to the batter's box and scored eight runs to seal the victory.




KIA, which lost both away games in Daegu, left the stadium with its head down after the game.
