SSG overpowered Kiwoom with firepower.
In an exhibition game against Kiwoom at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 15th, SSG won 11-6 against Kiwoom by combining Guillermo Heredia’s solo shot and Choi Jeong’s two-run home run. Heredia, who started as the second left fielder, had three hits and one RBI from four times at bat, and Choi Jeong got on base 100 percent with three hits from three times at bat.
At the bottom of the second inning when his team was trailing 1-2, SSG scored five runs thanks to Kim Sung-hyun’s timely hit, Park Sung-han’s timely hit, and Ko Myung-joon’s walk to force out the game. At the bottom of the fifth inning, when his team was trailing 7-6, he ran away again with Choi Jeong’s two-run shot, and added one run in the sixth and seventh innings to secure his win.
SSG starters Shin Heon-min (three runs in three innings) and Baek Seung-gun (three runs in 0.2 innings) slowed down, but Song Young-jin (1.1 innings), Lee Kun-wook, Cho Byung-hyun, Lee Ki-soon and Lee Woo-woon (one inning) later blocked no runs. Choi Joo-hwan, who left SSG for Kiwoom in the second draft last year, hit a magic trick with a superior solo home run in the third inning.
After the game, SSG coach Lee Sung-yong said, “The team won thanks to the wildebeest’s aggressive attacks. More than half of the team’s hits and RBIs were recorded in the table setter and in the central lineup. I think the hitting conditions of the fielders are getting better.”
Manager Lee continued, “It was bullpen day for pitchers. Hunmin and Seunggun lost points, but the pitchers who followed recorded no runs. There are still shortcomings, but his speed and condition are gradually improving. There were many four outs, so I hope young pitchers will pitch more aggressively,” he added.
