This week is the greatest challenge. In August, there is a 1.5G gap in 2nd and 3rd place, but Hodu has issued a warning. No. 1 LG → Relatively weak SSG needs to cross the double wall

The third place was also just ahead, but the biggest obstacle blocked it one after another.
NC Dinos coach Lee Ho-joon also said it was the biggest crisis. How to get through this week with the No. 1 LG Twins and the No. 3 SSG Landers depends on whether the power to the fall baseball continues or breaks.
NC is ranked sixth with a 50% winning rate of 54 wins, 6 draws, and 54 losses until the 25th. It is only one game difference from the joint fourth-place Lotte Giants (59 wins, 5 draws and 57 losses) and KT Wiz (59 wins, 4 draws and 57 losses), and only 1.5 games difference from the third-place SSG Landers (58 wins, 4 draws and 55 losses). If you strengthen a little more, you can reach the top five as well as the third place.
I happened to meet a random enemy here. LG, which has an 80% performance in the second half of the year, has been caught up in succession with SSG, which is relatively weak.
NC has recorded unexpectedly good performance with 5 wins and 6 losses in 11 games against LG. Coach Lee Ho-joon, who was a batting coach, QC coach, and head coach for LG for three years until last year, is well aware of LG's strengths and weaknesses and is considered to be coping well. If you look at August alone, it's a match between the first and second places. LG ranks first with 15 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, while NC ranks second with 10 wins, 1 draw and 8 losses.
For NC, which will play LG and SSG this week, it is the first time to play three consecutive games against LG well. Following Son Joo-young on the 26th, Yoni Chirinos and Song Seung-ki will take the mound one after another, while for NC, Logan will play on the 26th and Shin Young-woo will play as a substitute starter on the 27th. Shin Min-hyuk will take the mound on the 28th.
On weekends, he meets SSG, but his relative performance is the worst with 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses. Riley, who took one off due to bile symptoms, will play three consecutive weekend games against SSG and Logan will play on the 31st.
Director Lee said, `We've been following well"I think it will be the last place to go when there are about 15 games left. If you win back-to-back games at that time, it's worth a try. However, this week, when LG and SSG meet, is the biggest challenge for our team. I have to get through this week well"
NC formed the starting lineup with Kim Joo-won (striker), Choi Won-joon (middle fielder), Park Min-woo (second baseman), Davison (first baseman), Park Gun-woo (designated hitter), Lee Woo-sung (left wing), Kim Hyung-joon (fosu), Kim Hui-jip (third baseman), and Shin Jin-hwan (right wing).
