‘5% collapse crisis’ savior was Kwak-Bin, 115-pitch outing halted LG’s 6-game winning streak…Doosan escapes 3rd straight loss thanks to Park Kye-Beom’s 3 RBIs

Doosan was on the verge of collapsing after three straight losses. The saviors were Kwak Bin and Park Kye-beom.

The Doosan Bears won their sixth game of the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League against the LG Twins 7-4 on Sunday at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul.

Doosan escaped a three-game 먹튀검증 losing streak with a win the day before to improve to 30-1 and 29-1 on the season. LG, on the other hand, saw its five-game winning streak come to an end, falling to 38 wins, two draws, and 24 losses.

LG’s starting lineup was Hong Chang-ki (right fielder), Park Hae-min (center fielder), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Austin Dean (first baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (shortstop), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Kim Min-sung (second baseman), Moon Sung-joo (left fielder), and Heo Do-hwan (catcher).

Park Kye-beom followed with a leadoff single and Heo Kyung-min followed with a sacrifice fly to left field for a 2-0 lead.

In the fourth inning, LG’s leadoff man, Oh Ji-hwan, drew a full-count walk. Following walks to Moon Bo-kyung and Kim Min-sung, Moon Sung-joo revived the rally with an infield single, and Heo Do-hwan followed with an RBI single to center to cut the deficit to 2-3.

Doosan loaded the bases in the eighth inning with a leadoff double by Kim Jae-hwan, a wild pitch by Yang Yang-ji, and a walk to Kim Dae-hyun. Kang Seung-ho then drew a bases-loaded walk, and after a wild pitch brought home Yang Ji, Park Kye-beom hit a two-run double to drive in the winning run.

LG put the game out of reach in the bottom of the ninth with two outs after a throwing error by the shortstop and a single by Park Hae-min, but Kim 메이저놀이터추천 Hyun-soo’s RBI triple sent the game to the 18th.

Doosan starter Kwak Bin improved to 5-2 with six innings of five-hit ball, five walks, three strikeouts and two runs on 115 pitches.
