KIA took the lead in LG and won consecutive games, burning its will for autumn baseball.

KIA Tigers won 6-3 with two home runs against the LG Twins at Jamsil Stadium on the 13th, recording two consecutive wins. KIA, which was three games behind the fifth-ranked Samsung Lions before the game on the day, secured a strong team LG and saved its hopes of advancing to the postseason.

KIA, which had a miraculous come-from-behind victory in the 9th inning with two outs in the home game against the Doosan Bears the previous day, was able to face the LG match in a good mood, even though it was a long way to go. Manager Lee Bum-ho also said, `I'm glad I won. Starting Lee Eui-ri was not bad in Jamsil, but if he holds out to a certain extent, he can fight equally enough"I expected it.

Did the players know the coach's expectations. For now, Wizdom, a foreign hitter who returned from a back injury, responded. Wisdom hit a pre-emptive solo shot against LG starter Lim Chan-kyu in the top of the second inning with one out and no runner. It was his 32nd home run for this season. The flying distance is 139 meters. It was a powerful home run.

However, LG was also not easy. This time, it was Austin, as if it were a foreign batter's game. Austin hit a come-from-behind two-run shot from KIA starter Lee Eui-ri in the bottom of the third inning with two outs and a first base chance. Lee Eui-ri, who took a good lead with two outs, gave up a walk to Moon Sung-joo in vain, and the impact was huge. Lee Eui-ri's ball was not bad control, but Austin's technical shot was excellent.

The sky didn't abandon KIA. The tying scene in the fifth inning was exquisite. Two outs later, Yoon Do-hyun hit a hit and got on base. The next batter, Park Chan-ho, hit a ground ball to the front of the shortstop. That's when Yoon Do-hyun jumped. Of course, LG's shortstop Oh Ji-hwan went into the base cover. So it was a hit. Yoon Do-hyun is relaxed until third base. However, LG left fielder Choi Won-young made an error by leaking the ball while trying to handle the ball quickly, and Yoon Do-hyun came home and tied it.




The final hit came in the sixth inning. As expected, it was Choi Hyung-woo. He came out as the leadoff hitter and hit the final solo shot against Lim Chan-kyu. 23rd shot of the season.

a tight game. KIA produced a run-away score in the eighth inning. He created a chance with one out and runners on first and second base with a walk by Choi Hyung-woo and a hit by Wisdom against Kim Young-woo. LG raised Song Seung-ki, the starting agent, to the bullpen as manager Yeom Kyung-yeop predicted before the game. However, the operation failed when Song Seung-ki gave up a timely RBI hit to Oh Sun-woo. Song Seung-ki saved his subsequent batters, but the value of one run in such a close game was enormous.

Kia did not relax and even scored a wedge in the ninth inning. Park Chan-ho made a chance for first and third base with no outs with a fake bunt and slush on Park Min's hit. And Kim Kyu-sung sent the ball to third base, and LG third baseman Moon Bo-kyung's error made it easy to score. On top of that, Na Sung-bum's timely hit also broke out.




KIA ended the game with a must-win group of Sung Young-tak, Jeon Sang-hyun, and Jung Hae-young following Lee Eui-ri, who blocked until the sixth inning. Coach Lee Bum-ho put Kim Kyu-sung and Park Min in defense instead of Kim Sun-bin and Yoon Do-hyun, who are unstable in defense in the second half of the game, to lock them. Jung Hae-young, who was extremely anxious recently, almost made his first save since the Lotte Giants match on the 7th of last month, but he had to be satisfied with keeping the victory as the score gap widened to four points. However, after striking out two, it was a disgrace to Oh Ji-hwan to give a straight walk and allow Park Dong-won to make a timely RBI.

He was struggling with three losses and a 10.17 ERA in seven games, and he won his first sweet victory at a really important moment. It is the first victory in 527 days.

Meanwhile, LG's Hong Chang-ki, who was on the operating table due to an unexpected knee injury in May, was called up to the first team and returned as a pinch hitter. Hong Chang-ki showed his rusty skills by hitting a hit against Sung Young-tak.
