How long has it been since we won like this.

The Kiwoom Heroes had to cry on the 1st due to the massive unfavorable factor. Dawson, a foreign hitter who has established himself as the league's strongest second hitter with a batting average of 331 home runs, 57 RBIs and 69 runs, suffered a knee injury.

In a game against the NC Dinos on the 31st, he collided with his teammate Lee Yong-kyu during the outfield defense. Dawson's knee hit Lee Yong-kyu in the chest, and at first, I was worried that Lee Yong-kyu would be seriously injured, but a day later, a shocking news came out that Dawson was injured in the anterior cruciate ligament of his knee.



Serious injury with a complete rupture of the cruciate ligament that requires a rest of more than a year. Fortunately, it appears to be partial damage, not rupture. Still, with only about 40 games left until the end of the league, if a key foreign hitter who doesn't have any, was left out, it was too big to hit. We are waiting for the results of the detailed examination, but it seems difficult to run for the time being.

So on the 1st, the atmosphere against NC seemed to be not good. This is because he lost the game on the 31st, and rookie Kim Yoon-ha was dragged to 3-9 after being hit hard from the beginning on the 1st.



However, Kiwoom did not give up the game until the end in front of its home fans. In the fifth and sixth innings, he turned the game upside down with four points and three points, respectively, and in the eighth inning, he scored four points to make the game, which was pushed 3-9, 14-9.

Bae Sang-kwon, who came up to the first team on the day, said that he would endure with his gums without teeth, drove three hits in Dawson's second position. He even changed the team's atmosphere by playing hustle. The main players also cheered up. Captain Song Sung-moon drove in three hits, including a home run, and Kim Tae-jin also played three hits. Choi Joo-hwan hit a wedge three-run shot from opponent closer Lee Yong-chan in the eighth inning. Considering that the bullpen is weak Kiwoom, it was a valuable home run.

A game between the Kiwoom Heroes and the KIA Tigers at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 27th. Kiwoom Dawson hits an RBI sacrifice fly with one out and runners on the second and third bases in the bottom of the eighth inning. Gocheok = Reporter Park Jae-man pjm@sportschosun.com /2024.07.27/
Kiwoom is recognized as the strongest last place ever. As of the 1st, he won 43 games and 57 games, with a winning rate of 40 percent. The winning rate of Hanwha, the last place in the 2022 season, was 3.24 percent. It's a huge car. There is only one game against the ninth-ranked Lotte Giants and 2.5 games against the eighth-ranked Hanwha Eagles.

Kiwoom overturned its 8-0 win over KT Wiz on the 18th of last month to 8-12. On the 28th, the match against KIA collapsed by giving up consecutive home runs to Kim Sun-bin and Byun Woo-hyuk with two outs in the ninth inning when they were leading 3-2. Kiwoom, who was only the protagonist of such a shocking reversal tragedy, stood tall this time as the main characters of the reversal. It's a pity that Dawson is out, but in that case, the team's atmosphere can be completely changed by the miraculous victory made by HIMLE. Kiwoom will play three consecutive games against the Doosan Bears on the weekend. Furado-Heysus-Ha Young-min will start 1-2-3.
