Lotte still remains at the bottom
The LG Twins stopped the Lotte Giants’ six-game winning streak.
LG won 9-1 in the away game against Lotte in the ‘2024 Shinhan Solbank KBO League’ held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 10th.
LG (21 wins, 2 draws, 18 losses), which recorded 3 consecutive wins, maintained its 4th place.
LG starting pitcher Dietrick Enns pitched 6⅓ innings, allowing 4 hits, 2 walks, 4 strikeouts, and 1 run, earning his 4th win (1 loss) of the season.
Foreign hitter Austin Dean led the victory with 2 hits in 4 at-bats, 2 RBIs, and 1 run, including the final two-run home run (9th of the season) in the top of the first inning.
Park Dong-won contributed to the victory by hitting a 3-RBI double in the 6th inning, and Park Hae-min hit hard with 3 hits in 5 at-bats, 1 RBI, and 1 run.
Oh Ji-hwan achieved 2,500 bases for the 42nd time in the KBO League.
Lotte, which failed to win six games in a row (13 wins, 1 draw, 23 losses), still ranked last. Sajik Stadium’s winning streak also ended with three consecutive wins.
Lotte starting pitcher Park Se-woong suffered his third loss (3 wins) of the season after giving up 6 hits (1 home run), 4 walks, and 6 runs (5 earned runs) in 5⅔ innings.
LG took the lead from the top of the first inning. Moon Seong-joo’s walk was followed by Austin’s two-run home run, easily scoring the first run.
Lotte, who launched a counterattack, had a chance to reach second and third bases with one out and a double by Ko Seung-min in the bottom of the third inning with a hit by Dong-hee Yoon and a double by Seung-min Ko. Then, one point was made up for by an opponent’s mistake.
However, Lotte failed to score additional points in subsequent chances as both Jeon Jun-woo and Jeong Hoon struck out.
After two outs in the sixth inning, with a slight lead of 2-1, LG created an opportunity with the bases loaded thanks to consecutive walks by Kim Beom-seok, Moon Bo-kyung, and Hong Chang-ki. Immediately after, Park Dong-won’s double came out, adding 3 points. Afterwards, Park Dong-won even scored due to an opponent’s error and base running interference. In an instant, the score gap widened to 6-1.
LG, which had secured the victory, added one more point in the 7th inning with consecutive hits by Kim Hyun-soo, Austin, and Oh Ji-hwan, effectively splitting the game.
LG added one run in the 8th inning through Shin Min-jae’s walk and Park Hae-min’s triple, then scored with Moon Seong-joo’s timely hit.
LG’s second pitcher, Dae-Hyun Kim, took the mound in the 7th inning with one out and one on first base and recorded no runs in ⅔ innings, and follow-up pitchers Woo-Young Jeong and Jong-Jun Lee took charge of one inning each and ended the game.
