LG Twins secured the top spot with pinch hitter Park Dong-won's come-from-behind double.

LG won an 8-6 come-from-behind victory by scoring four runs in the bottom of the fifth inning with Moon Sung-joo's equalizer and pinch hitter Park Dong-won's come-from-behind two-run double in the home game against SSG Landers at Jamsil on the 12th.

LG, which has won two consecutive games, maintained its No. 1 ranking with 40 wins, 1 draw, and 26 losses on a first-come, first-served basis. Hanwha Eagles also won the Doosan Bears and maintained the second place by 0.5 game with 40 wins and 27 losses.




LG and Hanwha will hold three consecutive weekend games for the top spot at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon from the 13th.

SSG tried to block LG's batters with bullpen day by quickly changing starter Jeon Young-joon, but it was not easy, and in the end, failed to catch the top spot with two consecutive losses after one win. It remained at 33 wins, 2 draws and 31 losses.

LG formed the starting lineup of Shin Min-jae (2nd baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (2nd baseman), Austin (designated hitter), Moon Bo-kyung (3rd baseman), Moon Sung-joo (right fielder), Koo Bon-hyuk (striker), Lee Joo-heon (catcher), Lee Young-bin (1st baseman), and Park Hae-min (midfielder).




With Moon Bo-kyung at third base, Austin will be able to rest as a designated hitter. Lee Young-bin, who hit an RBI triple the previous day, played as first baseman instead of Austin. Moon Bo-kyung played as a designated hitter due to knee pain after playing as a third baseman until the match against Lotte in Busan on May 21. He came back to third base after 22 days.

For SSG, Jihoon Choi (center fielder), Eredia (left fielder), Choi Jung (designated hitter), Han Yu-sum (right fielder), Ko Myung-jun (first baseman), Park Sung-han (striker), Jung Joon-jae (second baseman), Cho Hyung-woo (captor), and Kim Chan-hyung (third baseman) stepped up. Before the game, Choi Jeong was hospitalized after being hit by an irregular bound ball in the left eyebrow while training for defense on third base, but fortunately, he played because there was no big problem.

LG's first starter Yoni Chirinos and SSG substitute starter Jeon Young-joon appear to be dominant in the showdown.
