Joy and sorrow were mixed when the pitch, which was thought to be a ball, became a strike that hit the low outside the ABS and was declared to strike out. KT Hwang Jae-kyun bowed twice to Samsung's Won Tae-in's sharp pitching using ABS.

Hwang Jae-kyun, who came on first base with no outs in the bottom of the second inning in the first game of a doubleheader between Samsung and KT at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 30th, was surprised by the ball being hit by the knob at the end of the bat while trying to avoid the first pitch thrown by Won Tae-in. Won Tae-in held the end of his hat to Hwang Jae-gyun and gave him a nod and expressed his sorry feelings.

Hwang Jae-gyun, who calmed down his embarrassment, cut Won Tae-in's ball one after another. After that, Won Tae-in's eighth pitch from 1B2S stopped the bat and sank.

At the moment when he judged it to be a ball, the referee's strikeout call rang out, and Hwang Jae-kyun could not hide his embarrassment. Won Tae-in's 137km slider was declared a strike slightly outside the ABS zone. Hwang Jae-gyun, who was embarrassed by the strikeout decision, had to walk despondently while looking at Kang Min-ho's face.

At the bottom of the fourth inning, when the leadoff batter Bae Jeong-dae walked and got on base, Hwang Jae-kyun had another chance. Hwang Jae-gyun tried to send a bunt, but he fouled both times and was driven to two strikes.

Hwang Jae-kyun watched Won Tae-in's outside fastball without throwing a bat in the ball count 2S situation. It was a pitch that Won Tae-in also tilted slightly. The ball, which was thought to be a ball, was struck out this time as a strike was declared slightly over the ABS zone.

Like his first at-bat, Hwang Jae-gyun, who had a standing strikeout by an unexpected ball, was frustrated by dropping the bat from his hand, and Kang Min-ho comforted Hwang Jae-gyun's bitter heart by handing over the dropped bat.
