Lotte is playing the KT Wiz match at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 4th.
A march of zero for both teams until the end of the fourth inning. More importantly, the hits, walks and errors were zero until the bottom of the third inning with two outs. None of Lotte KT's players went on the floor.
On this day, Lotte was in the lineup of Yoon Dong-hee (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (second base), Son Ho-young (third base), Reyes (right wing), Jeon Joon-woo (left wing), Jung Hoon (designated hitter), Na Seung-yeop (first base), Park Seung-wook (striker), and Son Sung-bin (catcher). The starter is Wilkerson.
KT faced off with Rojas (right wing), Kim Min-hyuk (left wing), Jang Sung-woo (fosu), Hwang Jae-gyun (third base), Moon Sang-cheol (first base), Kang Baek-ho (designated hitter), Kim Sang-soo (second base), Bae Jeong-dae (middle fielder), and Shim Woo-joon (striker). The first choice is Benjamin.
While Benjamin struck out seven through the fourth inning, Wilkerson had just two. Instead, Wilkerson (60 pitches) pitched less than Benjamin (68 pitches).
It is a game that has not much to record to compare these points.
Wilkerson and Benjamin struck out two side by side to end the first inning with three outs. While Wilkerson finished the top of the second inning with two ground balls and a fly ball, Benjamin struck out Jeon Joon-woo Jung-hoon in the bottom of the second inning.

However, Lotte had Son Ho-young 'Trade Blessing'. Son Ho-young hit Benjamin's fifth 130-kilometer slider to create a long-shot hit that fell on the right-field line. KT right fielder Rojas then ran to third base while he fumbled a bit and was safe.
Unfortunately, he failed to match the score. Benjamin struck out even the next batter, Reyes, and struck out seven until the fourth inning.
Wilkerson's perfect march was also broken in the top of the fifth. After two outs, KT Kang Baek-ho got on base with a heavy hit.
Here, Lotte's clumsy defense shook the pitcher once again. The next batter, Kim Sang-soo, hit a hit that fell in the middle of the left, and while Lotte center fielder Yoon Dong-hee fumbled the ball, first baseman Kang Baek-ho jumped home.
It was a bit of an unreasonable timing, but Lotte's defense did not play well. The throw was somewhat out of the home, and the catcher's port was also declared safe at home as a result of being behind the runner's main. KT got the first run.
KT took a 4-0 lead against the weak Wilkerson, with Bae Jeong-dae, Shim Woo-joon, Rojas and Kim Min-hyuk hitting a series of timely hits. Lotte managed to cut the long fifth inning from four runs, getting Rojas out of the home during Kim Min-hyuk's heavy hit.
