Having a fast runner is a very favorable condition for the attacking team. Pitchers and catchers have no choice but to pay attention to runners, and it becomes difficult to use breaking balls carelessly. Of course, it is easy for batters to hit because they have no choice but to throw a fast ball.

The LG Twins broke down Adam Oler, a foreign pitcher of the KIA Tigers, who was in a no-hitter until the fifth inning due to the fast runner's advantage.

LG won a thrilling one-point victory at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 24th. He managed to prevent KIA's wave offensive, allowing only one run, and was able to come from behind to win by scoring two runs with three consecutive hits in the top of the sixth inning from Oler, who was no-hit until the fifth inning.




Park Hae-min, who ranks first with 43 stolen bases, was the key to the attack. After trailing 0-1 in the top of the sixth inning, Park Hae-min hit a hit in the left-center, making his team's first hit and getting on base.

Naturally, KIA starter Oler and catcher Han Jun-su had no choice but to care about Park Hae-min. It was a one-run gap, and LG was unable to hit from Oler, so Park Hae-min seemed likely to steal a base.

He checked once before throwing the first pitch at Shin Min-jae's at-bat, and Oler prepared for Park Hae-min's stolen base with a pitch out of the first pitch. And he threw a 149km fastball that came a little high in the middle of the second pitch. Shin Min-jae did not miss it and made it a third base difference between the right and middle. Park Hae-min homered and tied 1-1. I had to throw a fastball because I had to pay attention to Park Hae-min's stolen base, but Shin Min-jae was able to hit only for the fastball.

There was the same situation at the beginning of the third inning. After Park Hae-min got on base with a walk after two outs, Ohler frequently checked Park Hae-min and threw only a fastball to Shin Min-jae. The left fielder caught him hitting a low fastball of 149km in the fourth pitch, but in the same situation in the sixth inning, Shin Min-jae did not miss the fastball that came well to hit and connected it with a long shot.

And No. 2 Moon Sung-joo made a 2-1 come-from-behind victory with a heavy hit that penetrated between KIA's forward-defensive infielders.

On this day, LG starter Tolhurst gave up six hits and two walks in five innings, but he became a winning pitcher by showing his outstanding crisis management ability to strike out six and give up only one run, while KIA Oler gave up only three hits and one walk in six innings, struck out seven, allowed two runs, and became a losing pitcher.




Just because Park Hae-min is at first base without stealing can put pressure on the opponent's battery. This can be an advantage for a team with a fast runner, which is why LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop emphasizes aggressive base running. This is because if you give the perception that everyone can play, the opposing pitcher and catcher pay attention to the runner, not the batter at all.
