LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop confessed honestly that he was shaken by 'recognition'.
There are moments when you have to close your eyes tightly without blood or tears to win. But a director is also a person. Athletes are not expendable either. Sometimes, the psychology of the player is examined first.
In the 2025 KBO League game against the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium on the 6th, LG missed the timing to replace the pitcher and lost a lot of points. In the form of a slugfest, he lost 8-10, and his seven-game winning streak was cut off.
LG put forward Choi Chae-heung as a substitute starter.
The criteria for alternative selection are very strict. If you are an ace, you will trust 100 pitches or up to the 6th inning of the 5th inning even if you lose a little point or accumulate runners. Alternative starters will be replaced relentlessly even if they falter a little. Even if there is no loss, it moves one beat faster when abnormal signs are detected. Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop failed to do so on the day.
Choi Chae-heung pitched well without losing a point until the fourth inning. Choi Chae-heung has exposed himself struggling when his opponent's batting order goes around once. He pitched well, but there was enough justification to replace him.
However, LG scored three points in the bottom of the fourth inning. As LG led 3-0, Choi Chae-heung had an opportunity to 'Winning Pitcher'. Choi Chae-heung could get the starting win if he blocked it in the top of the fifth inning. Choi Chae-heung's last start was on September 28, 2023. It was also a precious chance for him.
So manager Yeom Kyung-yeop pushed Choi Chae-heung.
Choi Chae-heung coincidentally got a triple by leadoff hitter Kang Seung-ho in the top of the fifth inning. Kim Ki-yeon grounded out to third base, but gave up a hit to Park Gye-beom and lost a point. Jung Soo-bin allowed consecutive hits, and even the runners piled up.

Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said the next day, "I shouldn't have scored in the fourth inning...'` he laughed despondently.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "(Choi Chae-heung) cannot help but post (Choi Chae-heung) there with one inning left. Even with two innings left, he would have changed it coolly. Baseball is supposed to be cool...," he said, blurring his words.
In fact, Jang Hyun-sik was also the best card LG could attach.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `Hyun-sik was in the best condition. I put Hyunsik in to win, but that's what happened. I think this is also Seung-woon."
The content was also bad.
Coach Yeom said "I bet he was going to win the game, but as a result, I couldn't stop it. We played baseball that wore us down. Such baseball should be avoided as much as possible. Pitchers use everything as pitchers and fielders are as tired as fielders. Baseball like yesterday should be reduced," he said, reflecting on himself.
