The Samsung Lions, who waited for the LG Twins in the playoffs as the second place in the regular season.

The atmosphere was the opposite. It was as if Samsung players were challengers.

The first round of PO was held at Lions Park in Daegu on the 13th. The players were dejected.



They gathered in front of the dugout under the leadership of captain Koo Ja-wook. When "Hero has a good winning rate, let's play together" Kim Young-woong said, "It's my first game, but I prepared well, so I think I'll win no matter what. I'll do my best and do my best"Then they chanted, putting their hands together. When Kim Young-woong introduced "Ipan", the players responded "Sapan".

As if there was nothing to lose, the young people's determination to fight without hesitation was felt.



In fact, Samsung won 10-4 with Kim Young-woong Diaz responding to Koo Ja-wook's three-run shot with a home run.

Captain Koo Ja-wook played a three-hit game "Ipan", and Kim Young-woong pitched a third base game with a home run and two walks in his first fall baseball game since his debut. Diaz, a foreign hitter who sensed the team atmosphere, also scored three RBIs, and starting Reyes led the victory with one earned run and one out in six ⅔ innings.

"Ipan Saban" became a hot topic of Samsung's first fall baseball in three years.



Starting with Koo Ja-wook, 'Captain'He threw his whole body and literally realized 'Best'.

The pitcher threw the strongest ball at every ball because his arm fell out. The defender threw his whole body on the ground without fear of hitting. The runner did his best to get another base. An autumn baseball game called 'Using up your physical strength as if you had played 10 games. Spilling everything like a villain quickly exhausted the players. To make matters worse, the ground was withdrawn due to heavy rain in the middle of the series. Injuries during defense and baserunning were inevitable as they overlapped with declining physical strength. Nam

'Captain' Koo Ja-wook collapsed first. I hurt my knee while trying to steal a base on the ground that was receding from the rain. He went all the way to Japan to receive emergency treatment and burned his will to play in the remaining fall baseball, but he was no longer on the ground. The steal was regrettable, but it was an inevitable injury that was hurt while trying to lead by example.

The next nightmare came to 'Ace'Wentain.

I felt uncomfortable with my right shoulder in Game 4 of the Korean Series at Lions Park in Daegu on Oct. 26. Close examination revealed joint and spondyloid damage and rotator cuff tendonitis. He retired after two ⅓ innings, which is the end of the fall baseball season. Samsung's autumn fighting spirit ended there.

Kim Ji-chan, who ran around in center field during the fall baseball season, was also sick.

His first outfield position this year. The fall baseball defense was bound to be especially tense. The accumulated tension and fatigue caused the injury. He was replaced as he felt uncomfortable with his left ankle during the defense of Game 5 of the Korean Series in Gwangju on October 27. Three or four weeks of pre-diagnosis. The national team's lack of outfield is on alert.

Even Kim Young-woong, the only survivor of the national team among Samsung players, is on the verge of elimination.

He hit a home run against Yang until Game 5 of the Korean Series, setting a new postseason record of four home runs in a single season (21 years, 2 months and 4 days), beating Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop (23 years, 2 months and 2 days) with his first postseason home run.

However, the aftermath of all efforts to the end led to discomfort in the right shoulder. He has not been able to perform normal training due to symptoms of gall. Kim Young-woong is scheduled to undergo a checkup at the hospital on the 4th, the day of rest.

Ryu Joong-il, the coach of the national team, said, "(It is difficult to use him at the tournament) if he does not even play in a practice game with the Sangmu Baseball Team on the 6th", and set the Maginot Line. After the match against Sangmu, the national team will confirm the final entry excluding one fielder and four pitchers.

Following Koo Ja-wook, Won Tae-in, and Kim Ji-chan, Kim Young-woong is likely to be excluded from the injury.

Coach Ryu Joong-il will not be able to take a single Samsung player to Taiwan who has frequently visited Lions Park and watched it.
