Shin Min-jae's feet dug into KIA's gap This is the ‘Jamsil Class’ of champion LG

This is the class of defending champion LG.

Last year's Korean Series champion LG achieved a dramatic comeback victory over leader KIA in front of a 10,000-won crowd (23,750 people). It was a game that seemed like a loss, but after taking advantage of the opponent's gaps, they achieved a thrilling victory, 7-6.

LG had lost all four games against KIA until the day before. Moreover, they lagged behind KIA in terms of the weight of the starting lineup. While LG's Kim Yun-sik, who was on the mound for the first time this season, started as the starter, KIA's starter was special ace James Nail. Until the previous day, Nail had pitched in 5 games and had 4 wins, no losses, and an average ERA of 1.14.

In fact, it was KIA's pace until the middle of the game. LG scored first in the first inning, but KIA scored four runs in the top of the third inning with Kim Do-young's come-from-behind RBI double, Lee Chang-jin's timely hit, and Kim Seon-bin's grounder hitting the third base runner home. KIA took a 5-1 lead in the top of the fourth inning, scoring one more run when relief pitcher Dae-Hyun Kim threw a wild pitch. 메이저사이트

It was Shin Min-jae's feet that turned the atmosphere around. In the bottom of the 5th inning, with one out and runners on second base, Shin Min-jae struck out against Nail. However, the ball bounced off catcher Kim Tae-gun's glove and fell to the ground, resulting in a strike out and not out. While Kim Tae-gun, who caught the ball, tossed the ball to Nail without thinking, Shin Min-jae sprinted to first base and reached the first base faster than the ball. For LG, a situation that would have been 2 outs and 2nd bases turned into a chance with 1 outs and 1st and 2nd bases. With a ball that hit the body of the next batter, Hong Chang-ki, LG had the bases loaded with one out. Heaven also helped LG. Second batter Park Hae-min's batted ball appeared to be a rather fast grounder to second base, but it bounced on an irregular bounce right in front of the second baseman, resulting in a fortunate timely hit for two RBIs. With 2 outs and runners on 1st and 2nd base, Moon Seong-joo hit a timely hit to make it 4-5, up to one point. KIA scored 1 run in the top of the 6th inning, but LG showed great concentration once again in the bottom of the 6th inning. Trailing 4-6 with one out and runners on 1st and 2nd base, Shin Min-jae hit a timely hit to bring the score back by one point. With 2 outs and runners on 1st and 2nd bases, Park Hae-min hit a timely hit to right that tied the game. However, while Park Hae-min stepped on first base and was caught in a rundown between first and second base, Shin Min-jae, who was the runner on first base, rushed home without looking back, turning the game around 7-6. Quick-footed Shin Min-jae went 2-for-4 with 2 runs and Park Hae-min led the attack with 3 hits and 3 RBIs in 4 at-bats.

Starter Kim Yun-sik collapsed early, but LG minimized runs for the remaining innings with a strong bullpen. On this day, LG mobilized all seven pitchers to face Nail. Closing pitcher Yoo Yong-chan took the mound in the top of the 8th inning with 2 outs and runners on base, and pitched 1 1/3 innings, allowing 1 hit, 1 walk, 2 strikeouts, and no runs, earning his 5th save of the season. Doosan defeated Hanwha 10-5 in the visiting game to Daejeon, giving up 13 hits, including home runs by Yang Seok-hwan and Yang Eui-ji. Doosan right-hander Kim Yoo-seong, who debuted last year, earned his first professional win in his first start of the season, allowing 3 hits and 2 runs in 5 innings. On the other hand, Hanwha rookie Hwang Jun-seo, who was drafted with the first overall pick, became the losing pitcher after allowing 6 runs in 3 2/3 innings. Hanwha set a new KBO league record in this category by selling out 13 consecutive games with 12,000 spectators on this day, but suffered 6 consecutive losses.

Samsung defeated Kiwoom 3-0. Starter Won Tae-in pitched well in 7 innings, allowing 2 hits, 8 strikeouts, and no runs, while setup man Kim Jae-yoon and closer Oh Seung-hwan pitched one inning each to complete the team's shutout win. Oh Seung-hwan, who earned his 8th save of the season, recorded 408 saves in the KBO League, surpassing Hitoki Iwase's record of 407 saves in Asia from 1999 to 2018 in Japanese professional baseball. Kiwoom fell into a swamp of 5 consecutive losses.

In Incheon, SSG defeated KT 5-2, and NC shut out Lotte 4-0. 안전 슬롯사이트
