If you lose even after Gamboa, Lotte will be in big trouble. The next opponent is LG, and you can lose in double digits in a row

Lotte Giants is in a big crisis. He has been mired in eight consecutive losses. It's amazing that he's still in third place after losing eight consecutive games, but the reality is bleak. In fact, it was closer to the top in the third place. I thought I could fight the LG Twins and Hanwha Eagles with a little more strength. Just a week ago, he said that he won the autumn baseball, but now he is in a position where he cannot guarantee his advance to the postseason. There is only a half-game difference with the fourth-place SSG Landers, two with the fifth-place KIA Tigers, and three with the sixth-place KT Wiz. The third place, which had been so firmly maintained, is in danger.
The sweep loss of the three consecutive games against the Hanwha Eagles during the week was a blow. In particular, the atmosphere sank further by giving up the last game on the 14th, which could have been won. But there was hope. He returned home on the weekend, and the opposing Samsung Lions were also losing consecutive games. He was a good match for me. However, he lost to Samsung for two consecutive days and hit the worst.
The important thing is that we need to end the losing streak as soon as possible. If you get out of the losing streak, there's plenty of room for a rebound.

He is a substitute for Barnes this season and has 7 wins and 4 losses with a 2.21 ERA in 12 games by spraying tremendous fastballs. It's a good performance to be called the 'alternative myth'.
However, I am worried about the loss in the last two consecutive games. Of course, Gamboa did her job. It was a loss of two runs in six ⅔ innings against KIA on the 5th and two runs in six innings against Hanwha on the 12th. Gamboa did her job, but there was no support for the batters, so she had no choice but to lose, so the losing streak was inevitably prolonged.

Indeed, how Lotte can escape the biggest crisis this season. It is no exaggeration to say that everything is at stake in this one game. Even if you lose here, you will lose nine consecutive games, and the LG Twins will lead the next week's three consecutive games. Even if we can go with a double-digit losing streak, it may not be an unreasonable prospect.
