LG Son Joo-young is regretful when Samsung Diaz's check swing was not recognized in the bottom of the third inning with two outs and runners on first base.
LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop is also in a position to make a video review of the check swing.

The fact that baseball rules do not have clear standards makes them hesitant to read videos, but they actively argued that they can make standards through meetings. Most of them acknowledge that they swung when the bat turned more than half, so there is no problem in setting a standard.

As the referee's different judgment on strike-ball disappeared due to ABS, check swing and balk are now being pointed out as problems. This is because there is no video review, causing unfair damage.

In the second round of the playoffs, LG was directly hit by the misjudgment, and manager Yeom made another determined remark.

LG starter Son Joo-young was robbed of one point due to a misjudgment. Son Joo-young induced the opposing batter Diaz to swing and miss in the bottom of the third inning with two outs and a runner on first base, trailing 1-2 in the second round of the playoffs against the Samsung Lions at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 15th, but the third base referee ruled it North Wing and later lost a point due to an error in the hit.

Son Joo-young, who allowed a walk to No. 3 Lee Sung-kyu after two outs in the bottom of the third inning, met with No. 4 Diaz. In the first meeting in the bottom of the first inning, he induced a missed fly, but he allowed one run as a lucky hit to fall on the left field line. This time in 1B2S, he sprayed a slider that bent outside 126km for the fourth pitch, and Diaz stopped while giving out the bat.

At this time, catcher Park Dong-won was confident and asked the third baseman whether he would swing, and the third baseman declared North Wing. Park Dong-won jumped up and looked unfair, but the check swing was not a video review.

However, on the broadcast screen, Diaz clearly swung. If the referee or the third base judge had seen it properly, the inning should have ended with a strikeout. However, neither the referee nor the third base judge saw it, and after the sixth pitch, Diaz hit a right-handed hit and a right fielder's throwing error came out, and first baseman Lee Sung-kyu homered to make it 1-3. When the ball is thrown home, Diaz tries to go to second base, but Austin, the first baseman, cuts the ball and catches Diaz, and three outs.

Son Joo-young also had a case of damage in the regular season when she lost a point due to misjudgment of check swing. At the bottom of the first inning against the Gwangju KIA Tigers on June 18, he induced Lee Woo-sung to take a check swing with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, but he later gave up two runs due to a misjudgment that it was not the first base. It was 0-2 with a strikeout that should have ended 0-0 and eventually lost the game 4-11.

In the regular season, he suffered damage due to misjudgment, but even in the postseason, where one point is important, he lost a point due to misjudgment.

Coach Yeom said after the game, "The referee is also feeling the burden, so if he makes a video review, it will ease the burden."It doesn't matter if you set the criteria ". If the broadcaster draws a line on the screen according to the standard, it will be helpful because the fans watching can agree immediately."

It seems that KBO needs to seriously consider the video review that manager Yeom insisted on. Yeom said, `The referee is also feeling the burden, so if you do a video review, it will ease the burdenIt doesn't matter if you set the criteria ". If the broadcaster draws a line on the screen according to the standard, it will be helpful because the fans watching can agree immediately."
