Two forward deployments that have become a `God's move'...The winner and loser have already been decided by "Sunbin Play"

KIA Tigers have reached the threshold of winning the Korean Series for the first time in seven years.
KIA won the 4th game of the Korean Series against the Samsung Lions 9-2 at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 26th, and will be able to lift the long-awaited trophy if it wins one more game in the remaining three games.
It was KIA, which was ahead of the team as the winner of the regular season, and KIA, which had an advantage by sweeping both the first and second games in Gwangju. However, he did not let his guard down. I lost the third game. On top of that, the Samsung starter in Game 4 was Won Tae-in, who pitched perfectly in Game 1. If it happened, the series could be balanced, and then no matter how much the rest of the games were played at home, it was not guaranteed to win. Samsung also considered the possibility of winning Game 4 highly because it is Won Tae-in.

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that the decision to play on the day came out early. No. 2 Kim Sun-bin's double should be noted. Kim Sun-bin doubled to second and third base with no outs, and KIA scored the first run.
Is it because of the score. No. Kim had Won throw as many as 10 balls. Won Tae-in continued to cut the ball that he wanted to hold the count, and after making the seventh foul, he hit the 10th ball and connected it to a double. Won Tae-in wouldn't know if he had caught the out here, but he allowed a double, so he had no choice but to lose more power in a difficult situation.

Won Tae-in cooked KIA batters with just 66 balls before the game was suspended due to rain in the first game. Was that why he intentionally cut the number of pitches Won Tae-in was trying to increase. "It wasn't like that," Kim Sun-bin said after the game. As good batting continued to come out in the Korean Series, he hit actively. In the process, a lot of fouls came out and the number of pitches increased, he explained. "I don't think Won Tae-in's pitch was much different from the first game."
KIA placed Kim Sun-bin, who had a good sense of touch, forward in No. 2 as No. 4 Choi Hyung-woo fell out due to a back injury, which became a `one-shot of God.'
