The LG Twins made a must-win lineup to protect the second place.

In the first game of the last three consecutive games of the first half against the Kiwoom Heroes at Jamsil Stadium on the 8th, LG formed the starting lineup with Shin Min-jae (2nd baseman), Chun Sung-ho (3rd baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Moon Bo-kyung (1st baseman), Moon Sung-joo (right wing), Park Dong-won (captor), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Ham Chang-gun (left wing) and Park Hae-min (middle fielder).

Recently, he made lineups 1 to 3 made of Shin Min-jae, Chun Sung-ho, and Kim Hyun-soo. Shin Min-jae will rank first and second in his team with a batting average of 417 (10 hits in 24 at-bats) in July and Kim Hyun-soo with a batting average of 333 (7 hits in 21 at-bats). Chun Sung-ho is also batting .25 with four hits in 16 at-bats.




LG, which eliminated Elijah Hernandez and Moon Jung-bin from the first team on the 7th, registered Baek Seung-hyun and Choi Seung-min on the same day.

LG, which won 4-2 against the Samsung Lions on the 6th and broke its four-game losing streak to tie for second place again, has to keep second place in the three consecutive games and finish the first half.

The first game is important, and South Korean ace Lim Chan-kyu will play. It is also an important game for Lim Chan-kyu.




Lim Chan-kyu is 8-3 with a 2.88 ERA in 16 games this year. He is tied for sixth place with multiple wins and sixth place with an ERA. Ranked 12th overall with 97 innings.

Among domestic pitchers, he is performing well in the first place in innings, second place in ERA, and third place in multiple wins.

However, he has not won since his eighth victory against the Hanwha Eagles on May 27. He has two losses and an ERA of 4.05 in five games without winning. Judging that fatigue had accumulated, he skipped one start and took a 10-day break, but the result was not very good.




On June 26, his first appearance after resting, he recorded five hits (one home run) and two runs in five innings against Suwon KT, and on the 2nd against Lotte in Busan, he became a losing pitcher with five hits (one home run) and five runs (four earned) in five ⅔ innings.

It is the last chance to prepare for the second half by winning nine games in his last appearance in the first half. His performance against Kiwoom is good.

He took the mound three times against Kiwoom and had a good record of 2-1 with a 2.37 ERA. On April 10, he became the winning pitcher with five hits and one run in seven innings at the Gocheok game, and on May 15, he won again with four hits and one run in seven innings at the Jamsil game. At the Gocheok game on June 7, he recorded six hits and three runs in five innings, but his team lost 1-4.

Ha Young-min is the starter of Kiwoom, which will prevent Lim Chan-kyu from trying to win nine games. He is 6-8 with a 4.93 ERA in 17 games this season. His performance against LG is not very good. He has two losses and a 9.00 ERA in two games.He has the worst ERA among the nine teams he has faced.

On April 10, he became a losing pitcher with 10 hits (one home run) and 6 runs in 4 innings at the Gocheok game,

In Jamsil on May 15, he lost again with four hits (one homer) and three runs in five innings.

Coincidentally, I met Lim Chan-kyu both times.

In the third meeting, I wonder whether Lim Chan-kyu will win or Ha Young-min will win his first victory.
