'Scoring right batting average of 0.091' Even the hitter 'exclusive finish' sunk [Gocheok]

 

Kiwoom Heroes showed why they are a strong team for two days in a row. The day before (29th), he won the battle between the aces, and on this day, a hitter with a 'scoring right batting average of 0.091' sank the special finish, which was only one blow save this season. It is a corps of heroes who take victory in any situation.

Kiwoom won 5-4 in the home match of the 2022 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League regular season against KIA held at Go Cheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 30th.

Kiwoom, who achieved a series sweep and 5 consecutive wins at the same time, was 47 wins, 1 draw and 28 losses, chasing the No. 1 SSG, which had no match on the day, with 1.5 games. On the other hand, KIA fell into a swamp of four straight losses, with 38 wins, 1 draw and 34 losses, further widening the gap with third-place LG by 5.5 games.

The fight continued until the middle of the game. Kiwoom took the lead by tying a ball that hit Kim Woong-bin's body and a walk of Jeon Byung-woo at the end of the 2nd inning, and took a 3-0 lead with Lee Ji-young's left wing solo shot in the bottom of the 4th inning. However, in the 6th inning, Dong-won Park's superiority two-run four in 1 company, 1 base, and shortstop Kim Hwi-jip's throwing error in the subsequent 1 company 1 base gave another 1 run, allowing a 3-3 tie. In the 7th inning, Yang Hyun allowed Na Seong-beom to shoot a left-wing solo and gave up 3-4 comebacks.

The winner was in the bottom of the 8th inning, with Kiwoom lagging 3-4. Kiwoom's lead hitter Shin Jun-woo hit a double in left middle, Lee Ji-young struck out and Kim Woong-bin walked to create one-to-one opportunities for first and second bases.

KIA also saw this as a match and put Jung Hae-young in early to finish. This season, Jung Hae-young appeared in 28 games and finished with 2 wins, 3 losses and 20 saves (2nd place in the league). As Jung Hae-young had only one blow save, KIA's choice was appropriate.

It was Jeon Byung-woo (30) who greeted him. This season, Jeon Byung-woo showed excellent defense at first base, but he was a player who did not stand out in batting, with a batting average of 0.205 in 69 games before that day. He wasn't particularly good at batting 0.091 (four hits in 44) in the run-of-the-box. This time, it seemed to go as expected, swinging Jung Hae-young's first fork in vain. However, he calmly picked out the second fastball and hit the 145km/h fastball on the 3rd pitch to hit the right wall of the Go Cheok Dome and hit the big two RBIs from the reverse. As Seung-ho Lee started in the ninth inning and confirmed Kiwoom's victory with a scoreless inning of one inning, Byeong-woo Jeon rose to third place in the team with Puig and Hye-sung Kim in the finals.

If there was one thing that KIA overlooked, it was that Jeon Byung-woo's clutch ability was not negligible. According to a Kiwoom official, before this game, Jeon Byung-woo had three finals this season, the fifth after Lee Jeong-Hoo (11), Song Seung-moon (6), Kim Hye-Seung, and Yasiel Puig (4). If you think of the batting average of 0.205 and the batting average of 0.091 in the scoring area, this is a surprising result.

Experts predicted that Kiwoom would be in the lower ranks this season, with Byeong-ho Park (KT) and Dong-won Park (KIA) missing out this season. However, they are showing off the side of a strong team by putting SSG, which is forming a studded corps with a solid mound and fireball baseball that fills the void no matter who is missing, in sight.

After the game 토토사이트, manager Hong Won-ki showed extraordinary faith, saying, "The players played with concentration until the end and showed good results."
