"I'm not trying to get greedy."

SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 13th when the game between SSG Landers and Kiwoom Heroes was canceled. The game was canceled due to heavy rain.

SSG was winning three games in a row. If it is canceled due to rain on a winning streak, it may not be welcome because the upward flow may be braked. Director Lee Sung-yong laughed at the question "Is it good rain or bad rain?" and said "I try to think as positively as possible."




As a result, it was a good rain for SSG. Anderson, who took the mound against Kiwoom on the 12th, felt uncomfortable in his right thigh. He will not be able to play against the LG Twins on Sunday. In fact, Kim Kwang-hyun's injury caused a hole in the starting lineup, and if it was not canceled on the day, he would have to find another replacement starter.

While SSG took a break, the Lotte Giants lost to the Hanwha Eagles. Lotte's shocking five-game losing streak. It's good news for SSG. The gap between fourth-place SSG and third-place Lotte has now been reduced to 1.5 games. It's the range of the station.

Director Lee smiled and said, `When I try to look up, I can see it continuously,' but `From the director's point of view, I try not to be greedy as much as possible. Let's keep the good flow, that's all. I don't have much experience as a coach, but I've felt a lot since last year. The most important thing is to go in the right direction. The most important thing is the players' bodies. Only when you are healthy can you concentrate, and good performance comes out. Rather than ranking, we are only concerned with the physical care of the players."




Coach Lee said, `Choi Jung, Eredea and Han Yu Island all need to take care of their condition. Still, thanks to that, I can see young friends coming up with experience, so this is very positive." Manager Lee continued "If we say we're going to the postseason, I think we'll be at our best until then.", he predicted.

SSG is gaining strength at the end of the season after the bullpen turned stably to the white-Anderson powerful one-two punch and did not collapse. How far can SSG go. Will he be a dark horse for the top rankings.
