On the other hand, Hanwha, who failed to win streak, became 14 wins, 3 draws and 25 losses.
In the beginning of the game, a battle of excellent pitchers unfolded. Hanwha Jang Min-jae and KIA Yoon Young-chul turned the hitters around with perfect control.
Hanwha went on base with hits and walks in the first and second innings, but bowed his head due to double play.
The opportunity to take the lead came to KIA first. In the top of the 4th inning, Hyeong-Woo Choi went on base with a ball that hit him in the second out, and Sun-Bin Kim got a hit. And Ko Jong-wook also pulled out a left-handed hit. Hanwha’s defense was good here. Left fielder Jang Jin-hyeok shot Choi Hyeong-woo, who was rushing home with a laser throw.
The baseball adage of opportunity after crisis was true. Hanwha had a chance to score right away in the bottom of the 4th inning. With hits, opponent errors, and walks, the bases were loaded with two outs. However, the score failed as Kim In-hwan retreated with a grounder from second base.
The balance of the tight game was broken with a single shot in the fifth inning. Byun Woo-hyeok, who started as the lead batter, hit a solo shot against Jang Min-jae. In the 1-ball, 2-strike, the 4th ball hit the 136km fastball properly and crossed the left fence. The flying distance of 125m came out. Season No. 4.
Then Hanwha also fired back. At the end of the 6th inning, Chae Eun-seong attacked Yoon Young-chul’s 3rd pitch 142km fastball in the 2nd company and hit the tied solo gun. Season 8 issue.
Jang Min-jae fought well with 5 hits (1 home run), 7 strikeouts and 1 run in 6 innings. He was on the verge of defeat, but erased the defeat with the help of the other line. Yoon Young-cheol felt even more regretful. He threw well with 3 hits (1 home run), 3 walks, 3 strikeouts and 1 run in 6 innings. He missed the victory with one mistake in the 6th inning. He had to be content with recording the most innings and quality starts since his debut.
The game became a bullpen fight. KIA took the lead again. It was a cannon this time too. In the top of the 8th inning, Socrates fired a come-from-behind two-run shot against Kang Jae-min on first base. Season 6 Arch.
KIA also scored an extra run in the ninth inning. Ryu Ji-hyeok scored a timely hit on 2nd 1st and 2nd base, made with hits by Byun Woo-hyuk and Lee Woo-sung. It was a wedge score.
Hanwha pursued until the end. Noh Si-hwan’s solo shot exploded in the first company at the end of the 9th inning. The no-hitter that had been going on since the 14th was broken. But there was no further pursuit. It ended with KIA’s victory.
