'If you lose, you're out. If you win, you'll go to Daegu.'" Director Yeom Kyung-yeop "Today's Son Joo-young is Hernandez "

Son Joo-young is the must-win card for LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop in Game 4 of the playoffs. Hernandez is unlikely to take the mound.
LG will play the fourth playoff game against the Samsung Lions at Jamsil Stadium on the 19th. LG set the tone with one victory in counterattack after two consecutive losses. He plans to win the fourth game and go back to Daegu.
There are variables in the bullpen. Hernandez, a must-win card, is in a difficult situation to take the mound. Hernandez, who threw 60 pitches in Game 2, is a break, despite Game 4 being pushed back by rain a day. Instead, Son Joo-young waits for an important moment. The following is the question and answer before the game with coach Yeom.
-Hernandez's condition.
▶I think I should let him rest until today. I think that's right. If you take a break until tomorrow, it could be a good card for Game 5. I think I need to give you a complete break. It's a symptom of shoulder clumping, but there's nothing wrong with the body at all. I didn't even talk with the players. I only discussed with the training part and concluded that it would be better to take a break.

▶Our winning team and Son Joo-young are on standby. Son Joo-young plays the role of Hernandez. Son Joo-young will only enter the new inning, and Yoo Young-chan and Kim Jin-sung will be in charge of one inning in the middle. Son Joo-young keeps going if she throws well. Because there's no tomorrow.
-The player who hasn't been on the field is
▶It's Choi Won-tae and Lim Chan-gyu.
-Yoo Young-chan's ball power is not recovering.
▶The direct ball pitching is not very problematic, but the slider angle is not sharp. We are making adjustments on that part.

▶ Since the first, second, and third games didn't explode, wouldn't it explode at least once. There was also a problem with pitchers during the process of 1 win and 2 losses, but there were also some parts we didn't do well. Until Game 3, the pitching power was also pushed back, but the batting lineup was largely pushed back. The fielders seem to be exhausted and slightly behind in timing. Fatigue has built up.
-I'm seeing Reyes again.
▶I don't think there's anything wrong with the first game. A lot of hit balls went straight ahead. Our batters' timing was not bad in the first game. The number of on-base hits in the lineup has decreased, leading to good pitching against the opponent. He struck out a lot, and it's not that he's bad.
