Samsung Lions manager Park Jin-man expected Park Byung-ho, a center hitter who does not explode, to rebound at home.
Samsung will play the third game of the Korean Series against the KIA Tigers at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 25th. With both games lost in Gwangju's away game, Game 3 must win a counterattack at home unconditionally.
The batting line is important. I couldn't use my power in Gwangju. He hit 12 hits in the second game, but it was scattered. He only scored three points. Ahead of the third game, coach Park said "The efficiency of the second game decreased." Taking that into account, I paid a lot of attention to weaving the batting order."
Coach Park forward-deployed Ryu Ji-hyuk, who has a good sense of the Korean Series, in No. 2 on the day. And Kang Min-ho and Diaz were placed on No. 3 and 4. In the face of left-hander Lauer, he chose Lee Sung-kyu as the right fielder.
What matters is Park Byung-ho. If KIA faces the threatening Diaz with difficulty, Park Byung-ho should solve it behind him. However, Park Byung-ho remained silent with four strikeouts and no hits in nine at-bats in the first and second games.
When asked if Park Byung-ho is burdened, coach Park said, "I have to do a little bit, but veteran players seem to be burdened by the team's batting slump," and added, "Now that we're at home, we have to turn the mood around." he said.
