Lotte Giants manager Kim Tae-hyung's expression briefly brightened up in celebration of his birthday. He looked as if he had forgotten the sourness of baseball for a while.
Lotte will play the third game of the weekday series against the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium on the 15th, the National Liberation Day.
On the first day, the rain was canceled, and on the second day, the team won 12-2. Lotte is on the rise with 7 wins and 1 loss in August.
Park Se-woong and Choi Won-joon are selected on the day. Park Se-woong is having the hardest season since his debut. He ranks 19th in ERA (5.34 and 20th place Kim Kwang-hyun 5.38) among the 20 pitchers who met the regular innings as of the previous day. Choi Won-joon is also having a sluggish year with four wins, six losses and a 6.40 ERA this year.

As for Kim Jin-wook the day before, "He threw well." I hope you can throw 6 or 7 innings by reducing the number of pitches"I'm throwing well, but I'm more greedy from the coach's point of view, but it's most important to keep the pace now without shaking." Don't you throw well these days without any energy?"

On this day, Lotte will play as the best lineup of Hwang Sung-bin (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (second base), Son Ho-young (third base), Reyes (left wing), Na Seung-yeop (first base), Jeon Joon-woo (designated hitter), Yoon Dong-hee (right wing), Park Seung-wook (striker) and Son Sung-bin (second base).
