In the end, nine starting hitters will play until Game 5.

In Game 5 of the Korean Series against the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 31st, the LG Twins formed the starting lineup of Hong Chang-ki (right wing), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (left wing), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Austin (designated hitter), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), Koo Bon-hyuk (third baseman), and Park Hae-min (middle fielder). It's like the lineup that made a dramatic come-from-behind victory in the top of the ninth inning the previous day.

Austin Dean went down from No. 3 to No. 5, but he had no hits in four at-bats until the top of the eighth inning, but he was also used as the fifth batter on the day as he scored an RBI with a lucky hit in the top of the ninth inning. LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said of Austin after the previous day's game, `Austin will start as the fifth designated hitter tomorrow (31st). A lucky hit in baseball might let loose a threadIf Austin didn't get that hit, he actually tried to start (Moon) Sung-joo in Game 5. During the game, I agonized over whether it was (Moon) Sungju or (Cheon) Sungho by myself. I tried to consult with the coaching staff and the power analysis team when I entered the accommodation. However, Austin hit a hit and decided to go as it was.




LG, which made the series 3-1 with a dramatic come-from-behind victory, will try to win the last four games with the winning pitcher Tolhurst in Game 5.

Tolhurst started the first game on the 26th and allowed seven hits, no four outs, seven strikeouts, and two runs in six innings.

Tolhurst, who had four hits until the fifth inning but held out well without losing a point, gave up two runs with a double, two hits and a sacrifice fly in the top of the sixth inning.




The team was replaced by Song Seung-ki in the top of the seventh inning with an 8-2 lead, and LG won. At that time, Tolhurst threw 82 balls and played in Game 5 after four days off.

Hanwha's starter is also Moon Dong-ju, who played in the first game. Moon Dong-ju had four hits (one home run), three walks, three strikeouts, and four runs (three earned) in four ⅓ innings, and his team lost and became a losing pitcher. Although he had fewer hits than Tolhurst, he lost a point by being hit with a concentrated hit. He threw 81 pitches.

Hanwha will target Tolhurst with Son A-seop (designated hitter), Luis Liberato (center fielder), Moon Hyun-bin (left fielder), Noh Si-hwan (third baseman), Chae Eun-sung (first baseman), Ha Joo-seok (right fielder), Choi Jae-hoon (catcher), Lee Won-seok (right fielder) and Shim Woo-jun (striker).
