First baseman Jung Joo-hyun, shortstop Kim Min-seong… LG operated the game as if it were an exhibition game due to a series of injuries to infielders. Still, he didn’t give up. After a close battle that went to overtime, the streak continued. The coach expressed satisfaction, saying, “The players’ concentration to win was strong.”
The LG Twins won a 3-2 victory over the Samsung Lions in the 10th inning at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 9th. Following Austin Dean on the 8th, Moon Bo-kyung became the main character of the final hit on the 9th. He won 4 consecutive victories by finishing the game two days in a row.
It was a difficult day to expect multiple goals. In LG, only four infield resources are missing from the first team. Lee Jae-won, Son Ho-young, Oh Ji-hwan, and Kim Joo-seong are out due to injury. In addition, Austin Dean, who can defend first base, is in a situation where he can only play as a pinch hitter due to heel pain, so it was not easy to configure the starting lineup. Director Yeom Kyung-yeop expressed this situation as “I’m doing it.”
The starting lineup for the 9th is Hong Chang-ki (right fielder) – Moon Seong-joo (designated hitter) – Kim Hyun-soo (left fielder) – Moon Bo-kyung (3 baseman) – Kim Min-seong (shortstop) – Seo Geon-chang (2nd baseman) – Park Dong-won (catcher) – Song Chan-eui (1st baseman) -Park Hae-min (center fielder) was in order. However, Song Chan-eui, who came out as the 8th hitter and first baseman, was replaced after the first inning and before the first at-bat came in. It was a replacement that seemed to be a censure for an error in defense in the first inning.
Song Chan-eui missed Kang Min-ho’s foul fly in the first inning with two outs and first base. Although he was not listed as an error, he was not without the possibility of catching a ball that landed inside foul territory. On the bench, it seemed that this batted ball was judged as a ‘ball to be caught’. As Kang Min-ho, who had revived as a knight, hit the right time, Song Chan-eui’s burden increased.
From the beginning of the second inning, Jung Joo-hyun, not Song Chan-eui, took over as first baseman. It was Jung Joo-hyun’s first appearance as a first baseman in the first team. He had a hard time handling batted balls in an unfamiliar position. In the 1st out, 2nd and 3rd base, Ja-wook Koo threw his body to catch the ground ball, but it was too far from the base. Second baseman Seo Geon-chang was waiting to hit the ball, and pitcher Adam Plutko was too late. Even if the run could not be prevented, the out count had to be increased, but infield hits were allowed.
In the beginning of the game, the defense showed gaps, but from the 3rd inning, no additional points were taken away. Plutko blocked the Samsung batting line with a triple strike for 3 consecutive innings from the 3rd to the 5th. In the 7th inning, Kim Jin-sung overcame the crisis with one company loaded. Jung Woo-young in the 8th, Lim Chan-gyu in the 9th, and Lee Jeong-yong in the 10th each recorded one scoreless inning. 토토사이트
After holding on and holding on, the opportunity came. LG failed to save 1st and 2nd bases safely in the 8th inning, but scored the winning run in the 10th inning with 2 outs and 1st and 2nd bases. Moon Bo-gyeong’s strong ground ball caught first baseman Oh Jae-il’s glove, but it became an infield hit. At this time, Moon Seong-joo, who was on second base, rushed home past third base and scored the finishing goal. LG, which had 4 consecutive wins, was 6-2 with an odds rate of 0.750, and became the 2nd place behind SSG (5-1, 0.833) in terms of odds without a game difference.
