Hernandez 'All-in' LG Baseball, which was not tomorrow, will the sky save this time...I'm excited about the rain forecast on the 18th.

The LG Twins died and came back to life. He made a comeback by winning the third round of the playoffs. There is good news for LG like that. Rain. I didn't see the effect of rain properly in Game 2, but will rain help LG this time. Or is it just a forecast.
LG beat the Samsung Lions 1-0 in Game 3 of the playoffs at Jamsil Stadium on the 17th thanks to starter Lim Chan-kyu and Hernandez, who came out as the second pitcher. LG had been on the brink of collapse after losing to Samsung in consecutive away games in Daegu. However, it changed the mood with one victory in counterattack.
In short, it was a baseball without tomorrow. Even before the game, LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `The second pitcher after Lim Chan-kyu is Hernandez. I took five days off. I'll let you throw it regardless of the number. It will be used as a starter. It's a cliffhanger, so you have to use a winning card" he said. It was a declaration of war to end the game with two pitchers, Lim Chan-kyu and Hernandez.
It was a natural choice. At this point in the LG bullpen, Hernandez was the only card that could be trusted and used in this desperate moment. Closer Yoo Young-chan has long lost his ball power, and Kim Jin-sung also failed to overwhelm his opponent with ball power.

This was also an operation that could be implemented under the premise that Lim Chan-kyu would draw more than five innings. Lim Chan-kyu fully lived up to that belief, and after five ⅓ innings, he handed over the baton to Hernandez.
Hernandez was strong. Of course, he allowed Yoon Jung-bin, the first batter in the sixth inning, to hit a big hit right in front of the fence, but he also met Diaz in the eighth inning with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, but saved LG without losing a point. And I won. Coach Yeom's calculation was right.
The problem is that Hernandez threw 60 pitches that day. I'm worried about Game 4, which will continue on the 18th. Even Hernandez, who has a strong spirit of sacrifice for the team, is too much to throw the fourth game that follows a day later. There is a risk of injury, and even if I come out, my ball power will inevitably drop. You can expect good pitching from the starter of Game 4, Ence, and the burdensome lineup could explode, but if the game is played without the strongest bullpen, the team will inevitably tremble with anxiety.

LG had not been able to play the second game scheduled for the 14th due to rain. At the time, Yeom welcomed it, saying, `It will be a helpful rain for us.' This is because he was able to change the selection of the second game from Ens to Son Joo-young. Even tired players in the semi-playoff were able to replenish their stamina. However, as Son Joo-young's card failed, LG lost and Heaven did not help LG.
Will it rain in Jamsil on the 18th.
