In two games, we lost a total of 12 innings and two runs, but the only thing that came back was defeat. It is SSG Landers who are not released on the day of the appearance of 'Captain'.

SSG suffered a shock upset loss on the 22nd. The game against the Doosan Bears took place at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul. SSG created a leading atmosphere by scoring four runs in the third and fifth innings against Doosan starter Hong Min-gyu. SSG starting pitcher Kim Kwang-hyun also met expectations by giving up just one run in six innings. Kim Kwang-hyun went down the mound with winning pitching requirements after allowing five hits, seven strikeouts, one walk and one run in six innings. The only run came in the seventh inning when second pitcher Lee Woon allowed a run for the successor, with the leadoff man down.

SSG started the winning team in the seventh inning. Lee Woon and Noh Kyung-eun are the best pitchers in the team's bullpen this season. However, from Lee Won-eun, he began to get hits differently than usual. After allowing two consecutive hits, one run was allowed, and then SSG replaced the pitcher with Noh Kyung-eun again, blocking the defense with one run in the bottom of the seventh inning, but the problem was the eighth inning.

Kim Min caught the leadoff hitter Yang Eui-ji with a fly to the first baseman in the eighth inning, and runners began to accumulate with a double and two walks. The ball control was shaken, and the third baseman scored as the ball hit by Oh Myung-jin became an infield hit to the second base.

There was a strange atmosphere. Kim Min seemed to overcome a big crisis by striking out Park Gye-beom with a swing and miss. But I got the last shot. 9th batter Im Jong-sung hit a surprise 110m grand slam over the right fence of Jamsil Stadium by targeting Kim Min's 149km pitch. a come-from-behind grand slam. It was a score in which SSG's lead disappeared in vain.

SSG, which completely turned over the atmosphere with a home run, succeeded in recovering one run in the top of the ninth inning, but failed to reverse it in the end. The final score was a 5-6 defeat.




As a result, Kim Kwang-hyun's three wins of the season failed again. Kim Kwang-hyun has allowed one run in six innings in each of the two recent games. Despite having a good record with two runs in 12 innings in two games, he recorded only one winless record.

It is Kim Kwang-hyun, who has no luck in winning this season. After winning his first win of the season with two runs in five ⅔ innings against the Doosan Bears in Incheon on March 23, which was the opening series of the regular season, he accumulated only five losses without winning in seven games, and pitched one run in seven innings against the KIA Tigers on May 11, making it difficult to win two games, but there has been no win again since then.

In the match against the Hanwha Eagles in Daejeon on the 17th, despite his good defense with one run in six innings against the formidable Hanwha lineup, the opponent was Cody Ponce, who recorded 18 strikeouts and no runs in eight innings. Luck didn't work out. The game against Doosan was also thought to be a win-win game, but individual wins and team wins were blown away at the same time as the must-win pitchers, who had been showing good performance throughout this season, were shaken. In the middle of the game, the failure to score additional points, which unfortunately ended in a chance to completely destroy the Doosan pitching staff, eventually returned to the last drag.




If Kim Kwang-hyun throws well, the support for scoring is disappointing, and on the contrary, there is no room for help in the game where Kim Kwang-hyun collapses. He has clearly shown his side as a veteran starter by conducting a quality start streak for the last four consecutive games, but his luck is not following. Will it be different in the next game.
