Is the war really starting.
The LG Twins won again. With the Hanwha Eagles playing a tough game, they took the opportunity to narrow the gap to two games.
In the first of three consecutive games during the week against KT Wiz at Jamsil Stadium on the 29th, LG won 8-2 with five big innings in the third inning and two runs in six innings by starting Chirinos. LG, which unfortunately lost the game against the Doosan Bears on the 27th and lost seven consecutive games, successfully rebounded from the game against KT and properly ignited the lead fight against Hanwha. Hanwha is far behind the Samsung Lions in Daejeon, so if the game ends like this, the gap between the first-place Hanwha and the second-place LG will be reduced to two games.
It was a match where LG's concentration shone.

LG was dragged away by giving KT a score first in the second inning. Chirinos was shaken by giving up a four-pitch pitch to leader Huh Kyung-min, and third baseman Koo Bon-hyuk's error came out. With one out and runners on the first and second bases, Chirinos was hit with a two-run double by opponent No. 8 Oh Yoon-seok.
But the batters helped Chirinos. He turned the game around in the third inning by scoring five runs in large numbers. KT's fatal blow was that starter Oh Won-seok, who had been playing well, held up to two outs and allowed six consecutive hits.

LG started the chase with Oh Ji-hwan's hit in a situation with two outs and a first base made by Moon Bo-kyung's walk. And Koo Bon-hyuk, who made a fatal error in the previous inning, cheered with a two-run double. a tie.
On the same day, LG called up the first team of the game and Son Yong-joon, a second-year college graduate who started as the eighth-designated hitter, hit an RBI timely hit against Oh Won-seok. After this lead, he didn't allow the game to turn around, so he became the winning shot. Son Yong-joon succeeded in stealing and recorded both his first RBI and stolen base since his professional debut.

LG, which gained momentum, completed five runs with hits and doubles by Park Hae-min's right-handed hit, followed by Shin Min-jae and Moon Sung-joo.
Chirinos, who were slightly shaken in the second inning, continued their stable pitching amid the score support, and LG's batting line-up brought the victory completely with Moon Sung-joo's RBI double in the fifth inning. And in the eighth inning, Koo Bon-hyuk's timely hit and Park Kwan-woo's RBI infield grounder completely sealed the victory.
Chirinos earned his eighth win (four losses) of the season by allowing four hits and two runs (one earned run) in six innings. Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop kept the victory by operating a must-win line that led to Jang Hyun-sik and Kim Young-woo even though they were four points apart. As the score gap widened in the 8th inning, Ham Deok-ju instead of closing Yoo Young-chan ended the game.

Oh Won-seok, who skipped the rotation once due to a sprained back at the start of the second half, collapsed by allowing a concentrated hit in the third inning. In fact, I was very anxious in the 1st and 2nd innings, but I caught an out count and scored no runs, but eventually burst out in the 3rd inning. As if it was in the aftermath of a back injury, the maximum speed of the fastball on the day was only in the early 140km range. It felt like LG hitters were supporting and hitting.

In the lineup, Koo Bon-hyuk exploded with four hits and three RBIs of atonement. His first four-hit game since his debut. The previous record for most hits in a game was three hits. Koo Bon-hyuk almost fell into hell and went back to heaven. Moon Sung-joo's three hits also stood out, while Shin Min-jae and Park Hae-min also had multi hits. However, the happiest moment on the day was Son Yong-joon, who hit his first final hit since his debut.
