'Mr. Zero' went down to the second division due to poor performance.

LG Twins' Park Myung-geun was canceled from the first-team entry ahead of the home game against the Lotte Giants in Jamsil on the 20th.

Instead, only Park Myung-geun was eliminated without any players coming up. You don't need a pitcher right away, but the next day is a day off, so you can exclude him from the first team, but the fact that he was excluded from the first team on that day can be said to have informed Park Myung-geun of the coaching staff's clear meaning.




Park Myung-geun got off to his best start this season. Until the match against the SSG Landers in Jamsil on May 2, he played a very active role by blocking five hits, three walks, and nine strikeouts in 13 innings. In the meantime, he has one win, one save and five holds. The powerful ball was overwhelming enough to see the ball bend even on the TV screen.

However, he failed to show his early appearance after the match against Doosan Bears in Jamsil on May 7, when the scoreless streak ended. Park Myung-geun, who recorded one win, two losses, three saves, and four holds with an ERA of 8.10 in May, recorded one win, two losses and one hold with an ERA of 6.30 in June. In July, he pitched in two games, and his ERA soared to 13.50 without winning or losing. He has a 4.54 ERA with 3 wins, 4 losses, 4 saves and 10 holds in 38 games this season.

The game against Lotte on the 19th, the previous day, was disappointing. In the top of the eighth inning, trailing 1-3, when Ham Deok-ju was driven to the first and second bases with consecutive walks after one out, Park Myung-geun, who took the mound in relief, allowed a straight walk to No. 5 Yoon Dong-hee to push himself into the crisis with the bases loaded with one out. He struck out Information Geun with a swing and miss, but he allowed another straight walk to Jeon Min-jae to give up one run. And a 145km fastball thrown to Han Tae-yang becomes a right-handed hit and gives up two more points 1-6. In fact, it was the moment when the game was completely tilted to Lotte.

LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said in the game on the 20th, `If you do it like yesterday, you can't beat it. "You can't beat him when you give him a walk, right?" "That's how I'm told not to give him a walk…"," he said, expressing his frustration.

Regarding Park Myung-geun, he replied briefly, "'In order to reorganize in the 2nd Army.'"

Coach Yeom has been considering Park Myung-geun's possible performance since joining the team in 2023 and has been using him in the first team immediately to raise him as a main winning team. It is virtually the first time Park Myung-geun has gone down to the second division due to sluggishness, not injury.




LG is in a very important situation early in the second half. We have to drop the third-place Lotte Giants and chase the Hanwha Eagles, who are 5.5 games away from each other.

Yeom emphasized the importance of the mound. "When a starting pitcher throws more than six innings, he has a winning rate of more than 70%" " and "When the starting pitcher goes down early, it is necessary for the middle pitchers to throw well to prevent it and for the batters to turn the tables." However, on the 19th, middle pitchers gave up additional points, making it impossible to compete.

In this situation, sending Park Myung-geun to the second division may have added more tension to the team. Can it be a turning point for LG and Park Myung-geun.
