In an away game against the KIA Tigers at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 23rd, LG consisted of Park Hae-min (center fielder), Moon Sung-joo (right wing), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Park Dong-won (catcher), Chun Sung-ho (first baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Kwan-woo (left wing) and Koo Bon-hyuk (second baseman).
It's a shame that Shin Min-jae, who was good at the game, was missing after a great come-from-behind victory the previous day. Shin Min-jae got on base with an infield hit in front of the pitcher in the top of the sixth inning of the previous day, scored with Moon Bo-kyung's three-run shot, and was replaced by Koo Bon-hyuk during defense in the bottom of the sixth inning. At that time, when Moon Sung-joo grounded out in front of the third baseman at first base, he started early and stood at second base, but became safe when second baseman Kim Sun-bin failed to catch the ball when third baseman Wisdom threw it to second base. At this time, I replaced it with discomfort because my waist was surprised.
LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop once in a while said, `I had symptoms of clumping in my waist during games"Yesterday, I thought the third baseman wouldn't throw it, so I think he stood and entered, and there was a lump in it. He said, "I'll be able to play as a pinch hitter in the second half of the game."
With Shin Min-jae out, Park Hae-min, the main character of the dramatic tie-breaking home run the previous day, will be the top hitter. It is the first time that he has played as a top hitter since the match against Changwon NC on June 4th.
Park Kwan-woo, who came out as a pinch hitter in the top of the ninth inning with one out and a runner on first base, beating the left-handed hit, enabling Park Hae-min's tie-breaking three-run shot to follow the chance of the first and second bases, started for the second time after the match against Lotte in Jamsil on the 20th.
The key is whether Park Kwan-woo, who started in left field at the time and contributed one run to the opponent Reyes' ball by making a double in the top of the first inning due to a mistake in batting judgment, will be able to play a stable defense this time.
Oh Ji-hwan, who had been sluggish, hit a hit in the top of the ninth inning, and Park Hae-min hit a tie-breaking three-run shot, making the point of the turnaround. He lost six points in the bottom of the eighth inning and was overturned from 4-1 to 4-7, but the team's atmosphere is expected to have been further encouraged by Park Hae-min's tie-breaking three-run shot and Kim Hyun-soo's timely hit in the top of the ninth inning. If the first starter, Yoni Chirinos, takes the mound on the day of three consecutive wins, he will be able to gain momentum.
Chirinos went 7-4 with a 3.65 ERA in 18 games this season. In the match against KIA, he took the mound in two games with a 1-1 record and a 4.38 ERA. On April 6, he became a winning pitcher with three hits and one run in seven innings in Jamsil, but on June 29, he became a losing pitcher with seven hits and five runs in five ⅓ in Jamsil.
In order to strengthen physical strength and protect players, he gave more than two weeks of rest after the match against Samsung on the 5th, and now he will take the mound against KIA, drawing attention to what kind of pitching he will play.
The starting pitcher of Kia is Kim Do-hyun. He is the fifth starter with 4 wins, 3 losses and a 3.18 ERA in 16 games this season. In the game against LG, he made one start on June 28 and allowed nine hits (one home run), one walk, four strikeouts and seven runs (five earned) in three ⅓ innings.
