LG-Kium match held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 2nd. Park Hae-min, who was running home in front of Shin Min-jae's pitcher with one out and third base in the top of the eighth inning, is hesitating. Gocheok = Reporter Jung Jae-geun cjg@sportschosun.com /2024.7.2/
The atmosphere has changed for a moment.

Who knew Park Hae-min, who is good at running base, would make such a mistake. Joy soon turned into despair, and the atmosphere led to the game.

The LG Twins suffered a painful upset loss to the Kiwoom Heroes. LG led 2-1 in an away game against Kiwoom at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 2nd, but lost 2-4 by giving up three runs in the bottom of the eighth inning.





He was able to score an additional point in the attack in the top of the eighth inning, but Park Hae-min's absurd baserunning dampened the atmosphere, and the mound allowed Kiwoom's bat to turn around in the bottom of the eighth inning.





I couldn't help but feel sorry for the top of the eighth inning.





LG came from behind 2-1 in the top of the fifth inning with Park Hae-min's solo shot, which was tied 1-1. Recently, Park Hae-min, who had a bad hit, hit a solo shot from Kiwoom starter Ariel Furado, who was pitching well, and the atmosphere rose to LG.

LG starter Kelly also met the requirements for a winning pitcher with one run in six innings.



Park Hae-min, who hit a home run in the top of the eighth inning, seemed to have luck as he stepped on first base due to an error by the second baseman. Hong Chang-ki perfectly succeeded in stealing second base at bat. Hong Chang-ki hit a ground ball in front of the second base, and Park Hae-min advanced to third base, creating an additional scoring opportunity for one out and third base.

Shin Min-jae hit a squeeze bunt on the first pitch. Park Hae-min rushed home after seeing the bunt. However, the ball was fast and pitcher Joo Seung-woo rolled in front of him. As soon as Joo Seung-woo tried to catch it, Park Hae-min ran home and stopped. However, the ball bounced off Joo Seung-woo's glove, and Park Hae-min ran home again, but Joo Seung-woo quickly caught the ball and threw it home to tag out. A situation in which Park Hae-min could have been safe enough if he had run without stopping. Catcher Kim Jae-hyun was pointing to Joo Seung-woo at first base because he thought Park Hae-min was running. However, Joo Seung-woo saw that Park Hae-min had not yet come, so he tossed home and tagged out to save a valuable point.

Shin Min-jae, who buntted, as well as Yeom Kyung-yeop's expression in the dugout, seemed to be incomprehensible that Park Hae-min stopped.

The timing of Joo Seung-woo's catch was that Park Hae-min could be out. Even so, it is questionable whether Park Hae-min had to stop because he had to tag out. Park Hae-min may have tried to send Shin Min-jae to second base because he was intimidated by the timing of the outing. In the beginning of the game, it was in the top of the eighth inning, and the squeeze bunt was a game, so LG was left disappointed by Park Hae-min's play, which stopped in the middle.

Kim Hyun-soo's line drive hit was then caught by the second baseman's jump catch, and the top of the eighth inning ended.

LG was ahead 2-1 but Kiwoom was in a better mood. And Kiwoom created an upward atmosphere against the changed LG's Jung Woo-young with Kim Hye-sung's double that bounced sideways after hitting the shortstop glove, and Song Sung-moon's tiebreaking right-handed hit made Choi Joo-hwan's come-from-behind double to make it 3-2 in an instant. LG lost 2-4 in the top of the ninth inning when pinch hitter Ham Chang-gun stepped down with a double play in front of the second baseman in the last chance with one out and runners on first and second bases.

Park Hae-min almost gave the team a victory with an unexpected home run, but rather provided the cause of handing over the flow of the game due to his mistake on the base.
