Even after securing first place in the regular league, an all-out effort… LG dashes Lotte’s fall baseball hopes
The gap between 7th place Lotte and 5th place SSG widens to 6 games.
LG Twins
The LG Twins, who confirmed first place in this year’s KBO League regular season,
fought hard as usual and continued their three-game winning streak. 온라인카지노
LG came from behind to win 7-6 in the visiting game against the Lotte Giants in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 4th.
The LG, which confirmed its advance to the Korean Series without playing the previous day’s game by losing to 2nd place KT Wiz and 3rd place NC Dinos,
recorded its 3rd consecutive win with the win that day.
LG, which achieved its 83rd win (51 losses, 2 draws) in the regular season, will be on par with the most wins in a single season (87 wins) in the club’s history set last year if it wins 4 games in the remaining 8 games.
On the other hand, the ‘road to fall baseball’ has become more difficult for 7th place Lotte, which does not give up hope of advancing to the postseason until the end of the season.
Regular Season
SSG Landers, ranked 5th, won that day, widening the gap between the two teams to 6 games.
Lotte scored the first run in the second inning when Kim Min-seok’s double hit with one out and runners on first base resulted in an error in LG’s broadcast play,
allowing first base runner Yoo Kang-nam to hit home.
In the third inning, with one out and one on first base,
Jeon Jun-woo hit his 16th two-run home run of the season against LG starter Casey Kelly.
LG, who launched a counterattack, scored 2 runs in the 4th inning with Park Dong-won’s 1 RBI hit and Moon Seong-joo’s sacrifice fly.
LG turned the tables again by beating Lotte closer Kim Won-joong in the 9th inning.
Hong Chang-gi and Park Hae-min’s back-to-back hits made 1st and 3rd base without outs,
1st base runner Park Hae-min succeeded in stealing second base, eliminating the risk of a double play.
LG easily tied the game with Kim Hyun-soo’s infield grounder,
but turned the game around with Oh Ji-hwan’s pitcher’s infield hit from 2 outs and 3rd base.
LG starter Kelly finished the regular season with 6 hits (1 home run),
1 walk, 5 strikeouts, and 3 runs (2 earned runs) in 6 innings and begins preparations for the Korean Series.
