Two misses in defensive judgment put the LG Twins into a 5-game losing streak. Two fielder selections, it was a throw worth trying in terms of timing. However, LG field pitcher overlooked Bae Jeong-dae (KT Wiz)’s quick feet and base run sense. The LG Twins lost 3-4 after an overtime game against KT Wiz in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 26th, losing 5 consecutive losses.
There were two disappointing defenses. First, it was the situation at the end of the 4th inning. LG, which was drawn 1-2, chose forward defense in the crisis of 1 company and 3 base. At this time, Kim Min-hyeok’s ground ball hit second baseman Shin Min-jae, and Shin Min-jae, who caught the ball with his backhand, threw the ball home. However, the home rush of the third base runner was faster. 먹튀검증 As soon as they heard the sound of the hit, the batting team rushed home and arrived at the home ahead of Min-jae Shin’s throw and scored.
Shin Min-jae’s decision to throw home to prevent a run was not bad. He was a forward defense, and if his main focus was an ordinary runner, he could also aim for an out. However, he was unable to put full effort into the throwing motion because he caught with his backhand, and crucially overlooked the fact that the runner on third base was the fast-footed team. In the end, LG had to face another crisis with conceding points by sending all runners alive.
After that, LG led the game to overtime with the score tied in the beginning of the 8th inning. They failed to score until the beginning of the 12th inning, and the victory was gone. At the end of the 12th inning, with 2 outs on 1st and 2nd base, finisher Go Woo-seok induced Kim Sang-soo to ground the ball in front of the shortstop, and it seemed like a draw.
But here again a disappointing defense came out. Third baseman Bo-kyung Moon ran up to the shortstop and caught the ball, and threw it to second base instead of first base, saving all the runners. Even before Moon Bo-kyung threw the ball to second base, Bae Jeong-dae had already arrived at second base, but Moon Bo-kyung, who was already making a throwing motion toward second base, could not change his stance.
Even at this time, the batting team’s sense of base running shone. The assigned team was far from first base (skip) before the pitcher threw the ball. Bae Jeong-dae, who ran toward second base with the batting, had already passed two-thirds of the way before Moon Bo-gyeong caught the ball. It could have been out without the skip action and quick feet, but LG overlooked the feet of the batting team again.
In the end, LG lost with a final hit to KT Moon Sang-cheol in the ensuing two-run crisis. It was the loss of not being able to stop the quick feet of the assigned team. Bae Jeong-dae made a big success with 2 hits and 2 RBIs, including a sacrifice fly and a timely hit, and overcame the come-from-behind crisis with a decisive home care in the beginning of the 9th inning, leading the team to 3 consecutive wins.
