The winging of the Busan seagull is causing a storm in the professional baseball game. The Lotte Giants have won five consecutive games.

The Lotte Giants won the 12th game of the season against the KIA Tigers at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 27th with Jeon Joon-woo's two-run final hit in the bottom of the eighth inning.

With this, Lotte swept three consecutive weekend games against KIA to set its opponent to six wins and six losses this year. Following a 2-1 win over Kiwoom during the week, he achieved a sweep against KIA, which is an explosive rise.

It is literally the second half 'Giant of Advance'. It is a high-flying flight that targets the second-place LG Twins and the first-place Hanwha Eagles with its 53rd win (three draws and 42 losses).

On the other hand, Kia allowed LG-Lotte to sweep consecutively, facing an incredible result of six consecutive losses. It is the worst week ever, with a winning rate of 50% (46 wins, 3 draws and 46 losses).

The starting showdown on this day is between Lotte's Na Kyun-an and KIA's Nail. We met four times in two seasons since last year, and this was the fifth time we met. The only draw was last year's '6.25 Battle', when Lotte trailed 1-14 and ended in a 15-15 draw. KIA won all three other games.

Nail played 30 innings in five games in his two-year career against Lotte with two wins, no losses and an ERA of 1.80. It is literally 'the natural enemy'.

But this day was different. Nail and Na Kyun-an pitched side by side with two runs in six innings, but failed to record a win or loss.

Yoo Kang-nam, who was the main catcher on the day, showed off his presence by hitting two hits, including a two-run timely hit in the second inning to win the first point, and it was Jeon Jun-woo's two-run final hit in the bottom of the eighth inning that determined the game. It was a victory where veterans joined forces.

After the game, head coach Kim Tae-hyung said, `Starting pitcher Na Kyun-an pitched well with two runs in six innings, creating conditions for victory. Yoo Kang-nam's two-run timely hit at the beginning of the game and captain Jeon Jun-woo's winning hit enabled him to win"I looked back.

Regarding the process of winning the last five games in a row, "All the players in the three consecutive games during the week should not lose their concentration and play." I think I got a good result. I want to say that you did a great job," he added,

Lotte recently surpassed 1 million home spectators and is dreaming of becoming its first autumn baseball in eight years. Manager Kim Tae-hyung said, `I would like to thank the fans for their enthusiastic support by filling Sajik Baseball Stadium every home game," he stressed.
