Jamsil Rivalry’ LG Twins and Doosan Bears met at an important crossroads. It’s a three-game series from which you can never back down.
LG and Doosan will face off in the 11th game 토토사이트 of the season at Jamsil Stadium on the 29th. In terms of opponent performance, LG is ahead with 8 wins and 2 losses. This season, Doosan has the lowest win rate against LG among the nine teams. Both LG and Doosan will have a burdensome rivalry in Jamsil due to bad trends.
LG switched from the bullpen to the starting pitcher, and Lee Jung-yong, who has pitched well in the last three games in a row, will start as the starting pitcher. Brandon, who joined Doosan as a substitute foreign player, is the starting pitcher.
Absurd come-from-behind loss, shocking sweep loss, 2nd place KT narrowed the gap by 4.5 games
LG, which is aiming for a combined championship in 29 years, is in crisis with 36 games left. LG, which is running in first place, was swept by NC in the Changwon expedition last weekend.
The first game was completely defeated by NC Ace Pedy’s perfect pitch. It was shocking to suffer an absurd end-game defeat in the second game.
With two outs at the end of the ninth inning, the lead was 5-3, and the game was ending with Park Gun-woo’s ground ball from second baseman with two outs on first base. Afterwards, the flow of the game changed strangely, and LG was beaten by Kwon Hee-dong with a three-run home run to end the reversal.
In Game 3, starter Lim Chan-gyu hit Park Kun-woo’s helmet in the first inning, and the mound operation was twisted with a ‘head shot exit’ and lost.
As LG suffered three consecutive losses, the atmosphere became subtle in line with KT’s pursuit of second place. KT won a sweeping victory in Lotte’s three-game series last weekend.
In the last 10 games, LG has 4 wins and 6 losses, and KT has 8 wins and 2 losses. In just 8 days, the difference between LG and KT narrowed from 8 games to 4.5 games.
In particular, KT was at the bottom in early June, but it rose to second place in two and a half months. It has made an amazing rebound from -14 in early June to +15 now. In the second half of 31 games, 25 wins and 6 losses (.806 win rate) is a crazy uptrend. LG, which was running for first place with ease, has changed to a situation where it has to be nervous.
After a new club record of 11 consecutive wins, it was pushed to 6th place
Doosan is also in a bad situation. In mid-July, he set a new record for 11 consecutive wins, the most ever for the team, and tried to consolidate his 3rd place, but after that, he fell into a 5-game losing streak. In early August, it was pushed from 3rd to 5th. After losing to SSG on the 27th, it fell to 6th place. It handed over the 5th place to KIA.
After 11 consecutive victories, they have 10 wins and 12 losses, and are slipping off the leaderboard. It is 2.5 games behind 4th place NC, which is competing for the round of 5, and 0.5 game behind 5th place KIA.
Alcantara, Brandon, and Kwak Bin’s 1st to 3rd starters have a sense of stability, but the 4th and 5th starters are unstable and the bullpen is overloaded.
On the 15th, Doosan changed the position of the finisher and setup man. Finish Hong Gun-hee collapsed with 2-3 runs in the match against Samsung on the 8th and 9th, and the average ERA in August soared.
Setup man Cheol-Won Jeong was in charge of the closer, recording 2 saves in 5 games, but with an ERA of 9.64. He conceded runs in 4 of 5 games. He is 4⅔ innings, giving up 11 hits, 5 walks, 5 strikeouts and 5 runs.
In the other lineup, Yang Eui-ji has been active with a batting average of 30.7p5 (6 hits in 16 at-bats) since returning from injury, and foreign hitter Lohas is also batting in the 30% range in the last 10 games. However, Kim Jae-hwan, the main hitter, has not been able to get out of the bottom of the batting average (20190).
