The Doosan Bears, who had been cruising, fell into a losing streak right after the streak ended and bowed their heads. I was caught in the ankle by a strange ball that came out of the match.
Doosan lost 1-6 in the 4th game of the season against kt Wiz in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at Suwon kt Wiz Park on the 19th. The previous day, Kiwoom Heroes lost 3-7, and as soon as the 5-game winning streak ended, they immediately lost 2 games in a row.
Doosan failed to attack the kt mound until the other lineup while starting pitcher Choi Seung-yong showed difficulty with 9 hits, 1 home run, 6 strikeouts and 6 runs (3 earned) in 4⅓ innings.
The attack in the 4th inning was particularly disappointing. In a situation where they were being pulled to 0-1, the flow was not bad until Yang Seok-hwan tied the score at 1-1 with Yang Seok-hwan’s timely hit from first and third base chances created by Yang Eui-ji’s walk and Kim Jae-hwan’s hit after one shot. Lohas’ right-handed hit led to a full base chance to Yang Chan-yeol, raising expectations for a reversal.
However, Yang Chan-yeol’s 5th pitch against kt starting pitcher Eom Sang-baek in a two-ball two-strike was only a slow infield ground ball, and kt second baseman Lee Sang-ho chose a home match and the third base runner was forced out. As Yang Chan-yeol quickly ran to first base, it seemed that the chance for the second run to be full would continue.
However, the problem was that Rojas, the runner on first base, started late with second base. Given the direction and speed of the ball, if Lohas jumped straight to second base, there was a high possibility that he would be tagged out by kt Lee Sang-ho.
Rojas started running to second base only after Lee Sang-ho threw the ball home, but kt catcher Jang Seong-woo’s throw arrived first. Doosan had no choice but to finish the attack in the top of the 4th inning in a 1-1 tie situation instead of a 2-1 reversal.
This double play drastically changed the flow of the game. After passing the hurdle, kt raised the atmosphere by flying back to 3-1 with a double by lead hitter Seong-Woo Jang and a 2-run home run by Alford in the attack at the bottom of the 4th inning that immediately followed. He added 3 more runs in the bottom of the 5th inning to solidify his winning streak.먹튀검증
On the other hand, Doosan was tied up with no points from the 5th to the 9th. It was hard to break through the offensive line, and in the second half of the game, I dedicated an out count helplessly. It was a day full of regrets about the attack in the top of the 4th in many ways.
