The Doosan Bears secured a winning series against the KIA Tigers.
Doosan won 5-1 in the match against KIA of the ‘2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League’ held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 13th. Doosan won 2 consecutive wins and recorded a season record of 16 wins, 16 losses and 1 draw, recovering a win rate of 50%, while KIA suffered 4 consecutive losses and only recorded 14 wins and 16 losses.
Substitute starting pitcher Choi Seung-yong’s good pitching stood out. Choi Seung-yong started in place of Gwak Bin, who left due to a back injury, and won his second win (third loss) of the season by pitching well with 80 pitches, 5 hits, 1 walk, 5 strikeouts and 1 run in 6 innings. From the 7th inning, Park Chi-guk (2 innings) and Kim Kang-ryul (1 inning) kept the victory.
The other line started to support the score early and lightened the shoulders of Choi Seung-yong. After one out at the end of the first inning, Yang Chan-yeol and Yang Eui-ji got four balls in succession and connected them with a chance for one out and first and second base. Kim Jae-hwan seemed to stop at the shortstop ground ball, but the ball fell into the outfield due to a catch error by the shortstop. Afterwards, Yang Seok-hwan’s sacrifice fly to the right field and Jose Rojas’ timely hit to the right center tied together and ran away 3-0.
In the bottom of the 5th inning, Yang Eui-ji’s home run sealed the win. Leading hitter Sue-bin Su hit KIA with a bunt hit to the left of the first baseman. In the ensuing 1 company and 1st base, Yang Eui-ji opened the distance to 5-0 by bursting the left-handed two-run gun. Yang Eui-ji hit a home run for the first time in Jamsil after returning from a free agent contract with Doosan this year. 토스카지노
Doosan coach Lee Seung-yeop said, “Starter Choi Seung-yong overcame the crisis wisely and laid the foundation for the team’s victory. Park Chi-guk threw his own ball and took care of the second inning, and Kim Kang-ryul also finished the game cleanly, even though it was his first appearance.”
He added, “Yang Eui-ji is Yang Eui-ji. Not only did the pitcher lead, but he also hit a decisive home run. I was able to set the mood at the beginning through the 3 points that came through the center line in the first inning.”
