Coach Lee Bum-ho said ahead of the Samsung match held at Lions Park in Daegu on the 12th, `I think they were very difficult hits. It's very hard to judge the balls that hit the end of the bat when they swing hard"I covered up the player who made a mistake.
"I play my best, and I think the players are doing their best enough in those situations. If I say I'm shaken because of that, I think there will be more difficult parts for the players to play. I told the staff that I had to focus once again after the past game. In the next game, there will be another game where Changjin catches it in a better enough situation, so I'm preparing it without much care", he explained.

Before the game, head coach Lee Bum-ho declared an all-out war, saying, `The game that must be won unconditionally,' and led 5-0 with three home runs in the top of the second inning, but the game turned upside down by giving up eight points to the opponent in the bottom of the second inning and lost 12-16 to overcome the shock. From the point of view of KIA, which has a busy way to go, it was a painful result of giving up both games to its pursuer NC.
Starting Lee Eui-ri collapsed sharply in the bottom of the second inning amid a five-point lead.
There was no problem with allowing an infield hit to the leadoff Park Gun-woo and an RBI double to Lee Woo-sung.
Lee Eui-ri induced Kim Hyung-joon to make an ordinary fly to left field, but left fielder Lee Chang-jin made a wrong judgment on the ball and allowed a hit. 1st and 3rd base with no outs. Lee Eui-ri's disappointment was also caught on the broadcast screen. Seo Ho-chul's hit was relatively good, but he also failed to prevent a hit due to a slight delay in his first start. Since then, Lee Eui-ri has collapsed by giving up a walk to Kwon Hee-dong and a pitch to Kim Joo-won.
Lee Chang-jin, who was called up on the 8th due to Kim Do-young's injury, started for the first time since the call-up. He was placed in left field to break through the path of attack.
He played in offense with one hit, one walk and two RBIs, but had to bow down due to a disappointing defensive mistake.
Lee Chang-jin will continue to start in left field against Daegu Samsung on the 12th. It is time to repay the coach's faith with a hustle play.
