KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-chul threw his hat in the first round of the fall baseball and the first round of the wild card game.
KT will play the first wild card game against the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium on the 2nd. KT, ranked fifth, is in a difficult situation, having to catch all two games in a row and playing a tiebreaker with SSG Landers until a day ago, but it is determined to continue its momentum in the postseason dramatically.
Coach Lee, who met ahead of the game, said, `In fact, yesterday I thought I had to win unconditionally, but I think I have a little leeway today. It's not that I'm complacent, but I want the players to play comfortably because I've achieved my fall baseball goal. "I'm suddenly nervous. I'm looking forward to it, too. Aren't we a legion of wizards. I want to get good energy and go up," he said with a chuckle. Since the introduction of the wild card system in history, there has never been a single 'Upset' for the fifth-place team to beat the fourth-place team.
Lee said, `Two years ago, I played a wild card game in fourth place. At that time, the opponent was the KIA Tigers, but the fourth place was more burdensome. He predicted that the opponent will be more burdened today as well."

In the end, he has to target Kwak Bin, the opponent's starter. Kwak Bin showed 5 wins and a 1.51 ERA in 6 games against KT this season. Manager Lee continued to meet Doosan and Kwak Bin when the starting lineup collapsed in the beginning, not an excuse. We are caught in a game where the alternative three starters go in. So I don't want to think too much about it." Then "The players to hit are coming up. In particular, Rojas got the hang of it from the Kiwoom Heroes match. The person who will hit should hit it," he stressed.
