"Even if it's a full-fledged war, the number of cards to use is limited."

The LG Twins, who wrote a drama that is hard to think of even if asked to write a drama, only won one game to win the championship. LG overturned the game in the top of the ninth inning, trailing the Hanwha Eagles by 1-4 and 3 points in Game 4 of the Korean Series at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 30th. Starting with Park Dong-won's two-run shot, Kim Hyun-soo's two-run hit at the second and third bases with two outs, which is the intersection of reversal and defeat, succeeded in turning the game around 5-4. Moon Bo-kyung's double then added one more run, and Austin's lucky first hit added one run to win 7-3. It was unbelievable that captain Park Hae-min burst into tears right after the game.

LG, which turned the game into a 3-1 advantage by reversing the game that could have dampened the atmosphere with two wins and two losses, will now win its fourth Korean Series title since 2023 with one more win in the remaining three games.




After suffering a disappointing upset in Game 3, the atmosphere was brought back with a dramatic upset win in Game 4. Still, LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `I'll finish in Game 5."' made no harsh remarks. This is because there is a bullpen, which is a weakness.

In a post-game interview, Yeom said the bullpen's difficulties, saying, `Even if it's a full-fledged war, there are limited cards to use.'

Manager Yeom, who was agonizing over the management of the bullpen throughout Game 4. Since it is a small difference in points, internal conflicts continued between trying to turn the tables by putting a must-win group or saving the stamina of the must-win group by putting a chase group. If you lose when you put in all the must-win teams, the aftermath could continue until Game 5. Game 5 was held the very next day, so I couldn't help but think about it.

Coach Yeom continued to struggle alone over whether to use the winning team or not. How many points should we use the winning team during the game, but I thought that if the winning team lost additional points by mistake, it would affect not only Game 5 but also Game 6 and 7"As the fielders released it in a good way, the middle began to open from tomorrow."

In the end, Yeom's decision was to save the winning team. After Chirinos stopped him well with one run until the sixth inning, Jang Hyun-sik took the mound from the seventh inning, and gave up two runs to make it 0-3. He scored one point in the top of the eighth inning, but Park Myung-geun and Lee Jung-yong gave up one more point in the bottom of the eighth inning, leading to 1-4. He scored one point in the top of the eighth inning, so he might have wondered what it would have been like if he had a must-win group from the seventh inning.

However, using a miraculous reversal in the top of the ninth inning, coach Yeom won by using only the closing Yoo Young-chan in the bottom of the ninth inning, allowing him to use Kim Jin-sung, Ham Deok-ju, and Song Seung-ki, who took a day off in Game 5.




Coach Yeom said, `We have limited cards to use. If you're winning enough after starting Tolhurst, Deok-ju, Seung-gi, Jinseong, and Young-chan will come out."

It is natural that the victory is close only when the batters burst like in the first, second and fourth games. This is because a small difference in scores can put you in a difficult situation like Game 3.
