LG, suffering from a lack of scoring strikes, could not choose a game against Hanwha after a struggle.

The LG Twins drew 1-1 with the Hanwha Eagles in the 2023 professional baseball KBO League home game held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul on the 20th.메이저사이트

If they had won that day, LG, which could have taken the lead by overtaking SSG Landers (25 wins, 1 draw, 14 losses), had to be content with recording the same 25 wins, 1 draw, 14 losses as SSG, marking a tie for first place.

LG’s disappointing result was due to the sluggish central batting line. There were several opportunities to score massively, but none of them scored satisfactorily.

First of all, the first chance came at the bottom of the 4th inning. At the beginning of the 4th inning, LG, who scored an RBI and a timely double from Lee Do-yoon, connected the first and second bases safely with a walk by Hong Chang-ki and a left-handed hit by Moon Seong-joo. The next batting order was a clean-up trio consisting of Kim Hyun-soo, Park Dong-won, and Oh Ji-hwan. It was a situation in which a large number of goals could be expected.

Kim Hyun-soo, who entered the plate first among them, hit opponent starting pitcher Lee Tae-yang’s two-ball 139 km fastball with all his might. However, the ball hit the ground and was sucked into the opposing first baseman’s glove. Kim Hyeon-soo lived at first base, but Moon Seong-joo, a runner on first base rushing to second base, was forced out. Park Dong-won then turned to the fly in right field, and Kim Hyun-soo stole second base to continue with 2nd and 3rd base, but Oh Ji-hwan also grounded to first baseman.

One point was picked, but the bottom of the 6th was also a scene that LG would regret forever. Park Hae-min’s left-handed hit, Hong Chang-ki’s double to left field, and Moon Seong-joo’s walk led to a golden opportunity to safely load the bases. However, the flow stopped when Kim Hyun-soo turned around with a looking strikeout after a 4-pitch game against Hanwha left-handed reliever Kim Dae-jung. Fortunately, against the changed pitcher Kang Jae-min, Park Dong-won threw a sacrifice fly to center field to balance the game, but Oh Ji-hwan struck out in silence in the 2nd and 2nd and 3rd bases that continued.

Even at the end of the 8th inning, the sluggishness of LG’s main batting line continued. After two outs, Moon Seong-joo’s left-handed hit and stolen second base, and Kim Hyun-soo’s automatic intentional four-pitch led to first and second base, but Park Dong-won and Oh Ji-hwan failed to surpass the opponent’s right-handed fireballer Kim Seo-hyun, striking out and retreating with a ground ball to third baseman.

Even after that, LG, which continued to beat the batting line, had to face the result of a draw that would never be satisfied. If only one of these hits had occurred at the right time, it would have been able to rise to the top spot alone, so LG could not help but feel more regret.

On the other hand, scenes that should not have appeared one after another, such as a misjudgment and a verbal battle between a player and a referee, made viewers frown.
