"There was no intention, it was completely out timing. Should home and third base have different standards?"
The winning coach made a determined statement. On the previous day, he pointed out that there was "inconsistency" in the judgment of obstruction of running water.
KIA Tigers manager Lee Bum-ho, who met at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 27th, said of Wisdom's decision to interfere with third base in the bottom of the 6th inning of the previous day, "It was a natural move from the defense's point of view. It's not a baserunning, it's a defensive interference."
Coach Lee Bum-ho, who met before the game, recognized the position of the base and the runner, and took one step further toward the direction of the runner. It's a professional player's instinctive play."
"If the timing was similar, I wouldn't have protested. It was a movement that the defender moved for the tag at the complete out timing, and it caused a running interference. Should the standards for home, third base, and obstruction of base be different. When the catcher catches and tags the ball first, he recognizes it as a tag motion even if it's in front of the base, but we bumped into it on the way to catch and tag much earlier, so what do you mean interference with running bases?"

From KIA's point of view, it was a painful declaration of obstruction of base running. After that, Lotte had a full base chance with no outs, and Reyes' ground ball and Yoon Dong-hee's two-run timely hit followed, adding three more points to run to 9-3.
On the contrary, KIA was in a situation where it was going to be first base with one out at 3-6. Coach Lee Bum-ho said, `We were in a situation where we could have a chance to catch up at least once. "Isn't there any intention to disturb the runner or if the runner jumps in and crosses in an unexpected situation to interfere with the base?" he raised his voice.
"The position where the defender and runner collided was more than 1 m away from the base. It wasn't intentional, but it was caught with the runner at the timing of catching and entering, but it might make sense again if you blocked the sliding with your legs, but your body is far away and you only stretch your arms to come in with this much space, and are you saying that the defender shouldn't even use this space. If we got the ball first, I think it should be checked for obstruction of defense, not baserunning."

Coach Lee Bum-ho said, `If the intention seemed to be 1%, I would not have protested if the timing was similar. It was an unconvincing decision," he repeatedly complained.
On the previous day, head coach Lee Bum-ho violently shook off his coach Son Seung-rak's drying touch and ran to the ground as if charging. Over a long period of time, he appealed his argument by marking the defense and the path of the runner with his feet on the ground. He was as sincere as a former luxury third baseman representing the league during his active days.
However, the video was already read, and it was a protest that was willing to leave. KIA, which had been losing four consecutive games, is even more frustrated. In the end, he fell into a quagmire for five consecutive losses. He is in fifth place with no difference from the sixth-place Samsung Lions.
