Lim Chan-kyu started the home game against the Lotte Giants in Jamsil on the 20th and allowed eight hits, two walks, one strikeout and two runs in five ⅔ innings. He was replaced in a 2-2 tie and withdrew without a win or loss, failing to record a win again this time.
Lim Chan-kyu, who had only two losses in six games and had no victory since his eighth win of the season against Hanwha in Jamsil on May 27, will not be able to record a victory in the seventh game.
Two of the previous six had a chance to win, but then the win flew away, and one went down when it was tied. Three times he went down when he was losing, but he turned the tables once and lost twice, giving Lim Chan-kyu two losses.
In the match against Samsung in Jamsil on June 1, he scored three runs in five innings and came down with a 4-3 lead to qualify as a winning pitcher, but the team lost 4-6 and the victory was blown away.
On June 14, Daejeon Hanwha also had six scoreless innings and had a 1-0 lead to another nine wins, but failed to become a winning pitcher as it ended in a 2-2 draw.
I wondered if I could win nine games this time, but it was not easy.
It was a crisis from the start of the first inning. After allowing Han Tae-yang to double to the left after one out, No. 3 Reyes hit the ball to the left. The left fielder on this day is Park Kwan-woo, a high school graduate rookie who started as the left fielder for the first time since his debut. As Park Kwan-woo came to the right, he turned to the front, and soon switched back and ran, but the ball fell behind him. A hit that you might have caught if you ran backwards from the beginning. As a result, it was a double and Han Tae-yang homered to make it 0-1. Lim Chan-kyu, who caught Jeon Joon-woo with a ground ball in front of the third base in the crisis of one out and second base, had a right-handed hit by No. 5 Yoon Dong-hee, but Reyes was tagged out by right fielder Moon Sung-joo's home pitch, and the first inning ended without additional runs.

In the top of the fourth inning, he was hit by Yoon Dong-hee after one out, and two outs later, Shin Min-jae caught Na Seung-yeop's ground ball and dropped it, putting him on the verge of the first and second bases, and allowed Kim Min-sung to walk to the bases.
The match against Jeon Min-jae. In 2B2S, Jeon Min-jae pulled the cutter well outside the fifth pitch, but left fielder Park Kwan-woo caught it and finished the game scoreless.
Lim Chan-kyu, who finished the top of the fifth inning lightly, took the mound in the top of the sixth inning as LG led 2-1 in the bottom of the fifth inning with Shin Min-jae's triple and Moon Sung-joo's infield hit.
However, he failed to finish the sixth inning by giving up a tie.
He got a hit over the height of the first baseman by the leader Jeon Joon-woo and left-handed hit by Yoon Dong-hee, starting with a crisis of first and second bases with no outs. He caught Yoo Kang-nam's ball himself and threw it to first base, which was slightly off and failed to double play, making it 1st and 3rd base with 1 out. He caught pinch hitter Jung-hoon with a fly to shortstop to make it to two outs, but allowed Kim Min-sung to tie the game 2-2 due to a heavy hit. He threw four balls in a row to Jeon Min-jae and walked straight, so he was loaded with two outs, and the LG bench decided to replace him.
Kim Jin-sung came up and struck out Hwang Sung-bin with a swing and miss to end the sixth inning with a 2-2 tie.
Lim Chan-kyu threw 89 balls, 26 fastballs up to 144km, 24 curves, 21 changeups, and 18 sliders.
