KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-chul threw a game-winner in Game 3 of the semi-playoff against the LG Twins. It's a contrast between batting order.
KT will play a match of fate against LG at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 8th. With one win and one loss in the semi-playoff history, the winning team of Game 3 went to the playoffs 100% of the time.
Coach Lee put the batting order in the order of Rojas, Kang Baek-ho, Jang Sung-woo, Oh Jae-il, Hwang Jae-gyun, Kim Sang-soo, Bae Jung-dae, Shim Woo-joon and Jung Joon-young. It's a big change. Rojas, who was hitting No. 2, went up to No. 1, and No. 4 Kang Baek-ho is the table setter. And it is also notable that Hwang Jae-kyun entered No. 5 and Jung Joon-young started in left field No. 9. Top hitter Kim Min-hyuk was completely excluded.
The starter is Benjamin, as he foresaw. Swap order with Cuevas and throw in important Game 3. Benjamin is known as the LG killer.
The following is a question and answer session with coach Lee before the game.
-The batting order has changed a lot.
▶ Kim Min-hyuk is out because he has symptoms of a cold. It is said that the sap has also been injected since yesterday because it has not been good, but it is still not good. You can't even tell a substitute.
-Hwang Jae-gyun was forward-deployed.
▶The second game hit came out, and the swing changed. I think the batting coach also liked it.
|
▶I tried to make Kang Baek-ho do it, but rather than suddenly doing it, I moved Rojas, who had experience once, to No. 1.
-Jung Joon-young's pick is.
▶I'm good at defense, but I thought the hit was okay, so I put it in. He also played a lot as a regular season starter. I also thought about Chun Sung-ho, but I also have to think about defense in important games. I put Jung Joon-young in because I thought the player would be a burden.
-I took a day off from playing.
▶It got better after watching the players practice batting. It's been a long time since I took a break. If you lose, you fall, but this time you didn't fall.(laughs) I'll play the postseason at home again, so I'll do well with my fans.
|
▶I'll wake up right away. The team that won Game 3 will definitely go up. You have to use all the cards you can win.
-Will Ko Young-pyo stand by for the bullpen.
▶Not today. Tomorrow might be possible.
-The player who hasn't been on the field is.
▶It's Cuevas, Um Sang-baek.
-Benjamin Condition is.
▶It looks okay. I usually threw it after a four-day break. I think he'll try to make up for it.
|
▶I've been doing well on my own for six years. I was involved Jang Sung-woo can be rather confused.
-LG rarely changes its lineup.
▶They are so good hitters. Anyone can play at first base if they go out. It's a tough team. We don't have left-handers, so we're a tough opponent in that regard.
