The Doosan Bears decorated their last game of the first half with a spectacular victory. Jack Rogue's first shutout was a combination of the batting lineup's explosive explosion and series winning, which drove 16 hits.
Doosan won 9-0 with foreign pitcher Zach Rogue's perfect pitch in Game 3 of the Weekday Series against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 10th. Sajik Stadium, which was packed with 21,199 people, was full of sighs.
With the victory, Doosan won its 36th game (3 draws and 49 losses), aiming to leap to the mid-range in the second half with hope.
On the other hand, Lotte is in the first half of its 39th loss of the season (47 wins and 3 draws) and finished third or higher in 13 years since 2012, but it is regrettable that it finished with the series luge.
On this day, Doosan played in the lineup of Jung Soo-bin (center fielder), Lee Yoo-chan (striker), Cave (right wing), Yang Eui-ji (designated hitter), Kim Jae-hwan (left wing), Park Joon-soon (third base), Oh Myung-jin (second base), Yang Seok-hwan (first base), and Kim Ki-yeon (catcher). The layout of the left, right, left and right batters is noticeable. The first starter is Jack Rogue.
Lotte faced off with Han Tae-yang (2nd base), Jung Hoon (1st base), Reyes (right wing), Jeon Joon-woo (left wing), Yoo Kang-nam (designated hitter), Jeon Min-jae (striker), Park Jae-yeop (catcher), Cho Se-jin (middle fielder), and Park Chan-hyung (third base). Han Tae-yang's first leadoff of the season, Cho Se-jin's first start in center field of the season, and rookie catcher Park Jae-yeop's registration are notable. The starter is Na Kyun-an.

Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung said of Kim Won-joong, who has not been able to take the mound in the last two days due to shoulder pain, `Today is okay. I can throw it." "When I meet Doosan in particular, I feel like I'm losing a lot." was also quoted as saying.
To Lee Ho-joon, the protagonist of the ending game, "Cute. He's a young player, but he has a strong platform.", For Park Chan-hyung from the independent league "He's good." As coach Kim Min-jae said, "I like the way I look in real life."

However, the game ended with Doosan's relatively one-sided victory with Zach Rogue's brilliant pitching. It was completely different from the last 1st and 2nd games, when the blood fight took place at the end of the game. Lotte killed itself by hitting four double plays on the day.
Lotte didn't start bad either. In the top of the first inning, Doosan's Jung Soo-bin got on base with a hit, but rookie catcher Park Jae-yeop stopped stealing second base. However, the ominousness began with three consecutive grounder outs in the bottom of the first inning. Was it a preview of the nightmare of a ground ball that continued throughout the game.
Doosan had a chance with two outs and runners on the first and second bases with Yang Eui-ji's Oh Myung-jin's hit in the top of the second inning, but failed to score due to a failed follow-up hit. Lotte's Yoo Kang-nam got on base due to an error on third base, but Jeon Min-jae's double play came out.

Cave's sacrifice fly and Yang Eui-ji's timely double broke out in the second and third bases with no outs, and Oh Myung-jin and Yang Seok-hwan failed to score additional points in the one-out full base chance.
On the other hand, Lotte got on base with a hit by Cho Se-jin after one out, but cried due to Park Chan-hyung's double play.
Lotte starter Na Kyun-an finished the 4th and 5th innings with three outs, including two strikeouts. In the sixth inning, Oh Myung-jin, who got on base with a hit, was caught in check and finished with three batters.
However, Lotte was frustrated by Reyes' double play in the fourth inning with one out and a runner on the first and second bases with no outs in the fifth inning, and Jeon Joon-woo and Yoo Kang-nam's consecutive walks. In the sixth inning, Han Tae-yang hit Lotte's fourth double play on the day.
Doosan opened the scoring again with Lee Yoo-chan's hit after two outs in the seventh inning. Lotte's second pitcher Shim Jae-min took the mound, but he allowed Cave to make a timely RBI following a wild pitch.

However, Jung Soo-bin's net shot burst in the top of the ninth inning. Following Lee Yoo-chan's hit and Cave's walk, Park Gye-beom's one-run timely hit, Oh Myung-jin's sacrifice fly, and Kang Seung-ho's two-run timely hit, they ran to 9-0. Lotte rookie Lee Young-jae struck out Kim Min-seok in his first appearance.
Through the eighth inning, Zach Log pitched 91 pitches. However, the Doosan Bears chose to replace him. Kim Han-joong, a former nurturing player, took the mound and finished the game with a three-way withdrawal.
