Line Drive with 4 consecutive wins → The head coach who looked directly at the runner lacked concentration of our players...I don't need an excuse

It was a rare finish to the game.
Two points behind, the first baseman stepped back in the top of the ninth inning with two outs and a runner on first base. Then, the lead range of the first baseman grew.
This has become bad luck. It was a line drive that hit well, and a hit through the first and second bases. However, the game ended when he was hit by a runner who was standing there.
The batter was Song Sung-moon of Kiwoom Heroes and the runner was Kim Gun-hee. It was an even more regrettable moment considering Song Seong-moon's sense of hitting, which is at its peak these days.
Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki, who met at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 3rd, looked back at the last moment of the previous day and affirmed that it was a bonehead play.
"It's true that it's a situation that could come out. However, it is a matter of the runner's concentration. It was an easy play."
It was a bullet-like hit that caught the bat properly. It seemed too much for the runner to see and avoid.

He failed to take advantage of the early chance, and in the top of the eighth inning, he added only one point due to an opponent's error. The head coach "I failed to take advantage of the scoring opportunities many times. I can't do well every time, but in the end, the fact that I didn't score that score turned over the flow."
What would the enemy captain's inner thoughts be like after a tough 4-2 victory. It was a game that struggled at the end of the game as Won Sang-hyun, a must-win group, threw 27 pitches and Park Young-hyun, a closer, threw 26.
Coach Lee Kang-chul said, `Yesterday's game was a real watershed for us. I played a big game well."
"The Kiwoom lineup is really good. Friends like Jun-seo and Jeon Tae-hyun, who are in the lower batting line, are also really scary. Isn't Song Sung-moon's ball hit too well. I'm left-handed at 2 outs, so I pulled back the first baseman a little bit, and I think that was a really good choice. If you didn't do that, the runner wouldn't have led. The runner came out this much, but the ball went right there."

Manager Hong Won-ki said of the recent upturn, including four consecutive wins, `Thanks to the pitchers' solid defense of the mound, the batters also helped to show their concentration. In the remaining first half of the year, we will focus on stabilizing the mound and making use of the batter's concentration. I think it will be a point not only to finish the first half, but also to start the second half of the season, he vowed.
