No one thought that Hwang Jae-gyun would miss this ball...KT and Ko Young-pyo, who were caught in a fatal error
KT Ko Young-pyo, who finished the first game of the doubleheader between Samsung and KT and the defense in the top of the fifth inning at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 30th, is sharing his joy with Hwang Jae-kyun. Suwon = Reporter's wook@sportschosun.com/2024.06.30/
I can't believe Hwang Jaekyun made such a mistake...

It is said that one error can change the game, but KT made a fatal mistake at the beginning of the game.

KT will play the second game of three consecutive games during the week against the Hanwha Eagles at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 31st. The rise in the second half of the year was dampened by the loss to Hanwha the previous day. It is a game that must be caught unconditionally in order to prevent Hanwha's momentum from winning four consecutive games.

However, one error completely twisted the flow of the early game.

The top of the third when they were 1-1 against each other. Ko Young-pyo was shaken by allowing Kim In-hwan to make a timely RBI. Kim Tae-yeon even hit a hit, making it a crisis with one out and runners on first and second bases. Still, he took a breather by striking out No. 4 hitter Noh Si-hwan. And Chae Eun-sung, the fifth, seemed to be induced to fly and put out the fire.

It was a normal hit, floating high in the infield. Third baseman Hwang Jae-gyun made a call. But what's wrong with this. Hwang Jae-gyun missed this ball. No matter how many players only eat and play baseball, it is natural to make mistakes because they are people. However, it is usually divided into mistakes that can and cannot be made as a professional player, but Hwang Jae-gyun's case was the latter. It was a situation with two outs, so I just needed to catch the ball regardless of the next play. It wasn't even a situation where the ball went into the light that often came out. No one would have thought that Hwang Jae-kyun, a former national team member who hit the FA jackpot twice, would not catch the ball. Hwang Jae-gyun's ninth error of the season.

Hanwha's second baseman Kim In-hwan played steadily. Even though it was a ball that could be out, I played home hard because it was two outs, but what's going on. It led to a score.

A simple one wasn't the problem. Ko Young-pyo allowed An Chi-hong, who appeared next, to hit a two-run double to right-center. It was not possible to conclude that he had a hit due to an error, but it was clear that it was the aftermath of the error. The situation has become 1-5 on the 1-2 days.

Fortunately, second baseman Kim Sang-soo cleared the ball, which would be Ha Joo-seok's one-run timely hit, with a picturesque diving catch. If this score had been included, the atmosphere of the game would have completely flowed to Hanwha early on.
