When will LG Twins be able to display a detailed base running performance that they had prepared by flying drones? The LG Twins ranked No. 1 in the "three-way street set" this year following last year. In the second game of a doubleheader on Thursday, the runner at second base, who was in the scoring position at the final of the ninth inning, jumped to third base on a one-bound ball that bounced very short, and was caught in vain. The base running back is overshadowed by leadoff hitter Moon Sung-joo's double. LG lost both games of the doubleheader and allowed the Hanwha Eagles to catch up by 1.0 game.토토사이트
LG lost the game 6-7 against KT Wiz in the second doubleheader of the "2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League" at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on Sunday. The team had been leading 6-1 until the fifth inning, but ended up with starting pitcher Koen Win failing to complete five innings in the second half. As the team's main bullpen pitchers were sidelined due to injury, LG tried to squeeze out available resources but failed to keep its five-run lead and collapsed. reckless running on base failed in the attack, resulting in the loss of chances for additional runs on its own. Ham Chang-gun hit the base in the sixth inning and Choi Won-young hit the base in the ninth inning.
LG was chasing after him by 6-4 by giving up three runs in the sixth inning. Still, the team had a chance to run away from offense in the bottom of the sixth inning. With one out, Park Hae-min walked to the base and stole second base, creating a scoring position. Here, Ham Chang-gun's hit to left field led to a lucky hit. Mel Rojas Jr. tried to blow himself, but the hit was a little short. Park Hae-min calmly grasped the situation in front of the second base and advanced to third base.
Then, Ham Chang-gun's baserunning took place. Ham was out while running to second base for additional bases. Austin hit with two outs and third base, not with one out and runners on first and third bases. Austin was caught with a fly ball to the right field. It could have been a sacrifice fly if the situation of out and runners was different.
In the ninth inning, a more absurd situation occurred. With Moon Sung-joo getting on base with a double, Park Dong-won drew a walk with one out and second base. Park Young-hyun's fourth ball was a slider that came in on a one-bound basis. Cho Dae-hyun couldn't catch the ball at once and blocked it with his body.
Choi Won-young, a pinch runner at the second base, ran to the third base. Cho casually handed the ball to the third base, and Hwang Jae-gyun waited for Choi to come before tagging along. Park Dong-won, who was taking off protective gear, and coach Chung Soo-sung, who was seen from the front, were also taken aback. The situation should have been one out and runners on the first and second bases with one out, has changed to two outs and runners on the first base. LG finished the game with Kim Hyun-soo's ground ball to the second base.
In the first doubleheader game that took place earlier, LG also had two baserunners. Oh Ji-hwan was caught once at home and Kim Hyun-soo at third base, respectively. When LG's failed stolen bases (18 times, the highest number), and baserunners (16 times, 3rd), which LG recorded in 45 games through May 17, combined with baserunners (16 times, 2 times, and joint 3rd place), LG ranked first overall. Last year, LG also had the disgrace of ranking first in the most stolen bases (79 times) and the most in the baserunners (61 times), and ranked second in the checkers (12 times), achieving the disgrace of ranking first in the "three sets of horizontal lines." In 2023, LG was the biggest winner in all three categories.
Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop describes LG as "the bat team." While using Jamsil as his home base, his team OPS came in second with 0.771, which is not wrong. At the same time, he has been playing baseball for the past three years, which reduces productivity by hitting the base. He says that such baserunning gives players boldness and confidence, while other teams confidently block LG's base running.
