I came in with atonement, but the flower director turned a blind eye and was furious...Why?

Daegu Lions Park on the 2nd. In the top of the fourth inning, when the KIA Tigers were trailing the Samsung Lions 0-4. Kim Do-young, the first batter, hit a solo home run over left-center field against Connor Seabold. It was a score that KIA could have a faint hope for pursuit amid the gap as it lost additional points to Samsung in the previous defense.
Kim Do-young, who turned around the base and homered, slowly headed to the dugout. In this case, it is common for coaches and coaches to extend their hands at the entrance of the dugout and encourage them with high-fives.
However, KIA manager Lee Bum-ho was not there.
Lee had been talking to defensive coach Park Ki-nam for a long time. His gesture with a rather rousing expression was a scene where anyone could see he was angry.

The two's mixed appearance is not irrelevant to the losing process in the bottom of the third inning. In the process of adding an out count by striking out with one out and runners on the first and second bases, all the runners started, and catcher Kim Tae-gun quickly threw to third baseman Kim Do-young. However, in a normal run-down situation, Kim Do-young threw the ball to first baseman Seo Geon-chang, not to second base. Seo Geon-chang missed the ball unexpectedly, and in the meantime, second baseman Koo Ja-wook settled on third base. In the end, KIA lost a point due to the interference of the nail's base running. The situation that could have easily ended the inning was lost due to an incomprehensible throw. Lee held Park, the head of defense, accountable.
However, the timing was strange.

Coach Lee eventually replaced Kim Do-young with Byun Woo-hyuk in defense at the bottom of the fourth inning. He fired atonement, but it was not enough to ease the manager's anger. Manager Lee, who advocated 'laughing baseball', could not let go of Kim Do-young's mistake at the end of the third inning.
