It's a three-game winning streak against LG, but there's no name for Kang Baek-ho...What about director Lee Kang-chul?

KT Wiz was missing a very important game, Kang Baek-ho. Why did head coach Lee Kang-chul make such a decision.
KT excluded Kang Baek-ho from the starting lineup for the LG Twins match to be held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 30th.
KT previously recorded a 2-1 winning series against LG in three consecutive games held in Jamsil during the week. It was originally scheduled until the previous day, and additional schedule will begin on the 30th. As a result, KT and LG will play four consecutive games. It is an opportunity to match the season's opponent against LG with eight wins and losses against three consecutive wins. Apart from this, every game is a war for KT, which competes for fifth place.
In this situation, it would not have been an easy decision to exclude Kang Baek-ho, who has 25 home runs and 87 RBIs. Coach Lee, who met ahead of the game, declined to say, `I don't think I'm in good condition.'

There is also the influence of Oh Jae-il. Oh Jae-il hit a decisive home run the previous day to change the atmosphere of the game against LG. Director Lee is very eager to continue the rise. Oh Jae-il plays as a designated hitter and fills Kang Baek-ho's vacancy.
Head coach Lee said, "(Kang Baek-ho will give you a shot when it's important,' signaling that he will use it as a substitute in the chance.
