“I’m looking forward to the next game” Manager Yoon Kyung-yup thumbs up
“Thanks to the power analysis and the pitching coach’s hard work, Enes pitched well today (Tuesday), and I’m looking forward to the next game.”
The LG Twins won the first game of a three-game weekend series against Lotte of the 2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League 9-1 on Tuesday at Sajik Stadium. The win extended the team’s winning streak to three games. Their season record now stands at 21 wins, 2 draws, and 18 losses. They remain tied for fourth place in the league with SSG Landers (21 wins, 1 draw, 18 losses).
LG was led by a strong pitching performance from starter Dietrich Enns. His final line was 6 1/3 innings of four-hit ball, four strikeouts, two walks, and one earned run to improve to 4-1 on the season. It was the first quality start (six innings of three earned runs or less) in four games since last month’s win over Jamsil Lotte.
At the plate, Austin Dean was the star of the show. In the top of the first inning, he took advantage of a four-seam fastball from Park Se-woong for a 110-meter, two-run home run (his ninth of the season) over the left field fence. Park Dong-won extended the lead in the top of the sixth inning with a two-run double to center field, ending Lotte’s hopes of a comeback. In the top of the eighth inning, Park’s RBI triple and Moon Sung-joo’s RBI single made it 7-1, and the KO punch was delivered with a 9-1 victory.
LG manager Yoon Kyung-yup said after the game, “Enns pitched well as a starter, and I would like to praise the power analysis and pitching coach for making the changes. The power analysis changed the pitching design, which allowed catcher Park Dong-won to get a good lead. The pitching coach adjusted the pitcher’s plate to the third base side to increase the strike rate of the changeup and increased the angle of his arm, which helped him to pitch well. Thanks to the power analysis and the pitching coach’s hard 먹튀검증 work, Enns pitched well today and we’re looking forward to the next game.”
“At the plate, Austin’s two-run home run set the tone for yesterday’s win. We were in a little bit of a chase situation with no runs scoring, but Dong-won Park came through with a big double in a crucial situation to put the game away. Thanks to the fans who traveled a long way to support us, we were able to continue our winning streak. We are grateful to them.”
Meanwhile, LG has announced Son Joo-young (1-2 with a 3.82 ERA in seven games and 33 innings pitched this year) as the starter for the 11th. Son, who 스포츠토토 사이트 추천 pitched a six-inning, three-run quality start in his last outing (April 4 against the Doosan Bears in Jamsil), will be making his first start of the season against Lotte.
Lotte, on the other hand, chose foreign pitcher Aaron Wilkerson (2-3, 4.73 ERA in eight games, 45⅔ innings) to start, who bounced back from a season-high seven innings of two-run ball in his last start against the Samsung Lions in Daegu on April 4.
