'Eight of Promises' has come to Suwon. But the main character was the away team Lotte Giants, not the home team.

In Game 2 of the Weekday Series against KT Wiz at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 11th, Lotte won 4-3, a miraculous come-from-behind victory with Reyes' two-run come-from-behind hit in the top of the eighth inning.

Until the game, the two teams were tied for fourth place. Therefore, if Lotte lost to KT on the day, it would have fallen to at least fifth place. However, he succeeded in overturning the cliff edge and rather recaptured the third place. He recorded his 35th win (three draws and 29 losses) and beat the Samsung Lions, who lost on the day.




On the other hand, KT missed a golden opportunity to leap to the top. It was even more painful because he allowed a come-from-behind defeat even with the powerful closer Park Young-hyun. He slumped to fifth place with his 30th loss (34 wins and 3 draws).

On this day, Lotte started the lineup of Jang Doo-sung (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (designated hitter), Reyes (right wing), Jeon Joon-woo (left wing), Kim Min-sung (third base), Jeon Min-jae (striker), Jung Hoon (first base), Han Tae-yang (second base), and Information-geun (catcher). The infield with Han Tae-yang instead of Son Ho-young stands out. The first choice is Davison.

KT faced Bae Jeong-dae (middle fielder), Kim Sang-soo (striker), Ahn Hyun-min (right fielder), Jang Sung-woo (designated hitter), Rojas (left fielder), Heo Kyung-min (third base), Lee Ho-yeon (first base), Oh Yoon-seok (second base), and Cho Dae-hyun (catcher). The lineup stands out to continue the momentum of the previous day's 18 hits and 12 points. The starter is foreign ace Heyesus.




Lotte eliminated Park Se-woong from the first team after winning eight consecutive games at the beginning of the season. It is an expiration that gives Park Se-woong, the No. 1 pitch player in the league, a break and also contains a meaning of rebuke. From Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung's point of view, Park Se-woong's patience for nearly a month since his slump began seems to have finally reached its limit. The choice of expelling the native ace stands out in the midst of a fierce ranking battle.

Park Se-woong has slumped to four losses and an 8.67 ERA in the last five games without winning. The previous day's game against KT was particularly shocking. It was the worst pitching of the year with eight runs, beating 12 hits, including two homers, in five innings. Manager Kim Tae-hyung said, `You have to be confident in your own ball. If you don't do that, the ball will be concentrated in the middle. Park Se-woong can't use all of his ball power," he said, expressing his regret.

KT manager Lee Kang-chul said, "Our team is very good at trading, thanks to the strong performance of trade recruiters such as Oh Won-seok, Lee Ho-yeon, and Junghoon Lee. I also like the ability of the head of the department, he said with a smile. As for the reason why Oh Won-seok stepped up, "The pitching form has been simplified, and he is throwing it comfortably. Also, it seems that synergy effect is great because it is done with good pitchers. In particular, Oh Won-seok is absorbing all the advantages of Cho Hyung-jun", expressing satisfaction.




Lotte won the first point on the day first. He led the mood by hitting a hit in every inning.

Lotte's leadoff hitter Kim Min-sung got on base with a double in the second inning, but he swallowed the disappointment by failing to hit a follow-up. However, with two outs and runners on first and second bases in the top of the third inning, 39-year-old veteran Captain Jeon Joon-woo hit a timely RBI single to take the lead.

Starter Davidson also showed his strong presence for the first time in a long time. He shook KT's batting line by mixing up to 152km of fastballs with various breaking balls. In particular, it was impressive to strike out Bae Jeong-dae and Ahn Hyun-min, who were swinging the bat in the first inning. He also went well in the second and third innings without losing a point.

However, the fourth inning was a critical moment. After Jeon Min-jae's hit in the top of the fourth inning, Lotte had a chance to score with two outs and runners on first and second bases with Jung Hoon's clean bunt and Information Geun's walk, but failed to lead to a score.

He immediately faced KT's counterattack. Leading hitter Rojas hit and Huh Kyung-min also walked to get on base. Davison seemed to regain his momentum by striking out Lee Ho-yeon and Oh Yoon-seok in a row.

However, he was hit by an RBI timely hit by ambush Cho Dae-hyun, and even before the disappointment went away, he allowed a two-run double to Bae Jeong-dae to cut the right-center, quickly turning the tables 1-3.

Lotte failed to take advantage of chances with two outs and runners on first and second bases in the fifth and seventh innings. KT starter Heyesus pitched well with one run in six innings before going down the mound. KT's bench put in a series of exclusive owners Won Sang-hyun and Kim Min-soo.

However, Lotte's bat was one step ahead. In the top of the eighth inning, leadoff hitter Jeon Min-jae walked to get on base, and Han Tae-yang's hit after one out made it to first and second base with one out. The changed pitcher Kim Min-soo walked and loaded the bases.

KT chose to put closer Park Young-hyun early. Park Young-hyun struck out Jang Doo-sung, but he gave Ko Seung-min a straight-pushing walk, followed by Reyes' two-run timely hit. Lotte turned the game around at once.

Lotte avenged its defeat the previous day with Choi Jun-yong in the eighth inning and Kim Won-joong in the ninth inning finishing the game without making a mistake. KT tried to fight back with Junghoon Lee's double in the bottom of the ninth inning, but Kim Won-joong caught Bae Jeong-dae Kim Sang-soo one after another to finish the game and complete his 16th save of the season.
