Kiwoom Heroes is coming to life. He stopped his opponent's six consecutive wins in three consecutive games against the KIA Tigers during the week, and this time he put a dagger on the Samsung Lions.
Kiwoom won the first game of the weekend's three consecutive games against Samsung at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 27th, thanks to Song Sung-moon's dramatic come-from-behind final two-run shot in the bottom of the eighth inning. In the game against KIA the previous day, he properly relieved his sadness that ended in a draw even though he had many chances to finish through the 11th inning of overtime. Although it is still at the bottom of the gap, it has recently been revived with a changed performance, signaling that it can be a dark horse in the second half.
On the contrary, Samsung, which had been sluggish with one win and four losses in the last five games before this game, suffered a shock upset and was in a difficult situation to maintain its fifth place.
It was a frustrating trend for both teams. Samsung caused the crisis with starter Choi Won-tae getting on base every inning. However, he kept blocking it. Kiwoom kept the runner on base every time, but there was no decisive hit. With two outs and runners on first and second in the first inning, with one out in the second inning, and with no outs in the third inning, he lost all chances on first and second bases.
Meanwhile, Samsung scored four runs at once in the third inning. Luck followed. Kiwoom starter Jung Hyun-woo was pitching well in the first and second innings, with three outs in a row. However, he was shaken by one defensive mistake. It's the trouble that the lead, Park Seung-gyu, was walked to get on base. And he led Ryu Ji-hyuk to a fly to left field. However, Kiwoom left fielder Lim Ji-yeol couldn't catch this ball. a catch error. Usually, the record is recorded as a hit rather than an outfielder's catch error, which was an error.
Chung Hyun-woo gave up consecutive walks to Yang Yang-geun and Kim Ji-chan, as if he was shaken by the play. Jung Hyun-woo, who was shaken, gave an additional run with a balk in the middle of the bases loaded, and seemed to be completely collapsed as he was hit by a two-run timely hit by Diaz. However, Jung Hyun-woo kept the mound bravely until the sixth inning without additional runs.
The problem is the batting lineup. In the fourth inning, he scored a point that barely caught up.
But Kiwoom didn't give up. Eo Jun-seo and Kim Gun-hee's consecutive hits against the changed pitcher Lee Seung-min in the sixth inning took a chance. Samsung tried to put out the fire by raising Yuk Sun-yeop, but he made a fatal second base throwing mistake when he grounded out in front of the pitcher, a double play course, providing an excuse for the chase. Kiwoom added Lim Ji-yeol's infield grounder RBI to chase under the chin by one point.
The game was decided at the end of the eighth inning. Kiwoom faced the changed pitcher Kim Tae-hoon after one out, Kim Gun-hee hit a hit and threw a run. Kim Tae-hoon handled Jeon Tae-hyun with a misfire. Song Sung-moon, the hottest man in Kiwoom, at the plate. Samsung also had a strong chance to put in the finishing pitcher Lee Ho-sung early, as if he felt an ominous energy.
However, Song Sung-moon pulled Lee Ho-sung's slider properly and connected it to a thrilling come-from-behind final two-run shot. The season's 11th proclamation broke out when it was very important.
Song Sung-moon also stole a base on the same day, continuing his record of 33 consecutive stolen bases.
