SSG Landers won the first game of the weekend series against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 8th after a bloody battle.
With the victory, SSG recorded its 52nd win (four draws and 49 losses) to rise to fourth place, beating the KIA Tigers, who lost on the day. As of the previous day, he won one precious victory in the midst of fierce competition within three games from fourth to eighth place.
On the other hand, Lotte took a step back from the lead with its 47th loss (58 wins and 3 draws). This weekend's three consecutive games were also an opportunity for Lotte to chase the lead as the Hanwha Eagles and LG Twins face off. But I was unexpectedly hit by SSG.
On this day, SSG played Park Sung-han (striker), Eredia (left wing), Choi Jung (designated hitter), Han Yu-sum (right wing), Hyun Won-hoe (first base), Ahn Sang-hyun (third base), Jihoon Choi (middle fielder), Lee Ji-young (posu) and Jung Joon-jae (second base). Eredia's No. 2, which has regained its batting condition, and Hyunwon's No. 5 forward deployment, which has recently shown good pace, are outstanding. The first choice is Choi Min-joon.
Lotte faced off with Hwang Sung-bin (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (first base), Son Ho-young (third base), Reyes (left wing), Yoo Kang-nam (possession), Noh Jin-hyuk (designated hitter), Yoon Dong-hee (right wing), Han Tae-yang (second base), and Park Seung-wook (striker). Roh Jin-hyuk seems to have filled the empty spot where Jeon Jun-woo was injured. Yoon Dong-hee also has a bad thigh. The first choice is Na Kyun An.

From Jeon Young-joon and Park Si-hoo, who play as the bridge, Kim Min-no-kyung, who is a must-win group, is by far the strongest in the SSG bullpen, which leads to Han Doo-sol, who is beneficial, and Cho Byung-hyun, who finishes. Manager Lee said, `The team's victory is the top priority. I'm going to play "all-out" in today's game"I'm determined.
Regarding Choi Jun-yong's absence, Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung said, `I'm glad Yoon Sung-bin is good these days.' Then, referring to Yoon Dong-hee and Ko Seung-min, "They're so bad these days. He has a batting average of less than 20 percent," he said, urging further action.

In the first inning, both teams have to leave the game. While SSG was withdrawn by a three-way strike until the second inning, the first hit of the day was Lotte Yoo Kang-nam.
However, the first and only score was taken by SSG. In the top of the third inning, leadoff hitter Jihoon Choi got on base with a double on the right-wing line, and veteran Lee Ji-young walked after enduring up to 10 pitches.
SSG Jung Joon-jae's bunt failed when he became a catcher foul fly. However, Park Sung-han hit a timely hit in front of the right field, and SSG scored the first and final point.
The next batter, Herredia, had a fly ball to center field and Choi Jung-eun hit the body, leading to a chance with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, but Han Yu-seom only made a mistake.
Lotte had Hwang Sung-bin's hit in the bottom of the third inning, but it was scattered. In the fourth inning, both teams failed to make a three-way exit. Na Kyun-an also finished the fifth inning with a three-way error.

Here, SSG changed the flow by putting in Park Si-hoo and Kim Min one after another. Lotte was lucky that Kim Min-sung's straight hit to third base, which almost became a double play, was handled in a straight line, and Hwang Sung-bin, the next batter, walked the bases loaded with two outs. However, Ko Seung-min, who the head coach was concerned about, ended up hitting a fly ball to the left field.
SSG got on base with a double in the top of the sixth inning by leadoff hitter Herredia, but it was canceled due to Hyun Won's double play with one out and runners on the first and second bases. Lotte also had Reyes' walk after one out in the bottom of the sixth inning, but Yoo Kang-nam's double play followed.
In the seventh inning, Lotte's Jung Chul-won and SSG's Lee Won-woon took over the mound and finished the game scoreless.
