His explosive power of 18 hits and 15 points became a sweet potato with 12 hits and 6 points in one day, so he scored only three points in three bases-loaded opportunities. I can't keep the first place with 14 bases

The LG Twins lost to the NC Dinos by one point, turning on a red light for No. 1 Mercury. LG lost 5 to 6 in an away game against NC at Changwon NC Park on the 4th.
The distance between the two teams was reduced to 0.5 game difference as Hanwha, the second-ranked team, lost on the same day and won the KT Wiz by 4 to 3 and 1 point.
On this day, starter Son Joo-young pitched a disappointing nine hits and four runs in five innings, and the bullpen was also dragged away with additional runs. The mound was also regrettable, but what was more regrettable was the batting lineup.
On the 3rd, the previous day, LG scored 15 points with as many as 18 hits, including Kim Hyun-soo and Austin's three-run shot, but it became a frustrating sweet potato lineup in a day.
LG also had double-digit hits on the day. He pressed NC's mound with 12 hits. He also got seven four pitches, creating many scoring opportunities. However, hitters froze whenever there was a chance. He was dragged around without the long-awaited concentration hit, and eventually lost without reaching the turnaround.
In the scoring opportunity of the day, LG had 3 hits in 14 at-bats, with a batting average of 214.
In particular, it was a pity that he couldn't make a big inning with three bases-loaded chances. LG failed to score because Oh Ji-hwan struck out and Koo Bon-hyuk hit a fly to the second base in the top of the fourth inning with one hit and two walks.
I got another chance in the top of the fifth inning. With two outs and bases loaded with hits by Park Hae-min and Kim Hyun-soo and walks by Moon Bo-kyung, Park Dong-won's timely hit to the left, but Moon Sung-joo stepped down with a ground ball in front of the first base, failing to reach a tie and a reversal.
The last chance came in the top of the eighth inning, trailing 3-6. With a hit, a walk, and a hit ball, the bases loaded with one out were made. However, it was regrettable that Austin Dean struck out. Since then, Moon Bo-kyung has scored one point by hitting an infield hit to the first base, but Park Dong-won failed to score an additional point as he only made a fly to the shortstop.
Moon Jung-bin's solo shot in the top of the 9th inning, 5-6, up to a point difference?However, they failed to reach the tie and lost by one point.
It is a disappointing game for LG. Now that Hanwha is trailing by a half-game, it is not in a situation to relax for first place.
Yoo Young-chan has returned, and Jang Hyun-sik has also entered the countdown to his return, so if the lineup strengthens a little more, LG's chances of winning will be higher. If it is a frustrating hit like the game against NC on the 4th, when 14 base runs were made, it is difficult to keep the No. 1 spot.
