The 12-point gap could have been overturned. Park Myung-geun of the LG Twins managed to prevent the disaster and kept the team at the top.토토사이트
In an away game against the Lotte Giants held in Busan on Tuesday, LG was leading 10-0 until the second inning and 14-3 until the fifth inning. After starting pitcher Song Seung-ki allowed seven hits and three runs until the fifth inning, Sung Dong-hyun came up in the bottom of the sixth inning.
At that time, the mood started to get weird. He allowed walks to Yoo Kang-nam on consecutive hits by Na Seung-yeop and Yoon Dong-hee, and loaded the bases with no outs, before giving up one run due to Son Ho-young's infield hit to the third baseman. After all, lefty Kim Yoo-young came up and gave up another run on Jang Doo-sung's critical hit. In the ensuing at-bat, Ko Seung-min gave up one run as the ball fell backward, and then got a double to the left-center field, adding another two runs. Reyes' double to the right field line quickly widened the gap to 9-14 and five runs.
Still, LG added Park Myung-geun, a must-winner, and replaced catcher Park Dong-won, who was resting on the bench.
Jeon Jun-woo, the first opponent, hit the left-handed hit to become the first and third bases with no outs, and gave up a straight walk to Jeon Min-jae, who was on the verge of loading the bases with no outs. However, Park began to show his performance as a "Mr. Zero" from then on. He was on the verge of being pushed out by 3B1S in the game against Na Seung-yeop, but he managed to catch his first out count by catching a catcher's foul fly after a full count match, and ended the sixth inning without losing a point by successively striking out Yoon Dong-hee and Yoo Kang-nam.
As Park Myung-geun stopped Lotte's wave offensive in the sixth inning, LG was able to continue the flow again.
At the bottom of the seventh inning, rookie Kim Young-woo came out and was on the verge of a one-out, first and second base with consecutive hits, but he blocked Reyes and Jeon Jun-woo with misfires, and in the top of the eighth inning, he scored three more runs with one out and a full base, clearly breaking Lotte's willingness to chase again by 17-9, eight points, and then Baek Seung-hyun blocked the 8th and 9th innings, allowing LG to win.
Park allowed one hit, one walk and no run during the first inning. He did not become a winning pitcher and had no saves or holds, but he made "super saves" to keep his victory.
He has pitched in 21 games this season, recording 2-1 with two saves and nine holds and an ERA of 2.79. Park Myung-geun, who played as a "Mr. Zero" in the first 13 games and 13 innings, is an indispensable player in the LG bullpen. He is a two-top player who should protect LG's victory along with Kim Jin-seong as Jang Hyun-sik and Kim Kang-ryul are missing Bae Jae-joon.
After the game, Park Myung-geun said, "As I went up in a chaotic atmosphere, I couldn't even get zero points and had a lot of strength," adding, "It was very helpful for (Park) Dong-won to come up and calm me down. When I go up to the mound, I try to throw most of the time as Dong-won's lead is. Throwing according to the lead definitely works out well. I always thank you," he said, describing the situation that broke through the crisis at the time.
Park said, "These days, I don't think it's bad, so I try not to be too careful when I go up. Especially, I don't care about the front runner or the situation, and I try to throw my own ball. I feel like I'm throwing more comfortably than before," he also said.
Even on Tuesday, Sajik Stadium was sold out as it was the first and second place game on the day. LG fans also cheered in the third-base stand, so LG players could play without feeling lonely. Park Myung-geun said, "I rested on Monday, and it was a tough game from the first day of Tuesday, but I think I was able to win with strength because many fans came. Thank you for your support."
