Lotte played its second match against Taiwan's WBC (World Baseball Classic) national team at Taipei Dome on the 13th.
The first round was a 4-3 one-point victory for the Taiwanese national team. On this day, Taiwan changed home and away, and Taiwan went first and Lotte went second. However, the stands and dugout positions remained unchanged for convenience.
Lotte was in the lineup of Hwang Sung-bin (center fielder), Na Seung-yeop (first base), Son Ho-young (third base), Reyes (designated hitter), Yoon Dong-hee (right wing), Jeon Joon-woo (left wing), Park Seung-wook (striker), Jeon Min-jae (second base), and Information-geun (catcher). It is almost the same lineup as the previous day, but Reyes was the designated hitter and Jeon Jun-woo was in left field. Jeon Min-jae and Information Geun also exchanged batting orders. Taiwan made a big change in its lineup compared to the previous day with Song Cheng-rae (left wing), Cheng Zhi-yu (third base), Zhang Yu-cheng (striker), Li Ji-hong (designated hitter), Chen Ji-won (middle fielder), Uni-ting (first base), Chen Chong-yu (fosu), Wang Bo-shuan (right wing) and Li Zongxien (second base). The first choice is Lee Dong-ming.
Lotte starter Kim Jin-wook's control was shaky in the beginning. The first batter, Song Cheong-rae, walked again after one out and gave a walk to Jjang Wi-cheong, causing a crisis with one out and runners on first and second bases. However, he overcame the crisis with difficulty by handling fourth batter Lee Woo-ji-hong and Cheon Won-ji in the outfield.
