Diving Catch & 3 consecutive battles → Sweeping ‘3 consecutive wins’…”He showed his determination to win”
Kiwoom won the home game against Lotte 7-6 at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 20th. Kiwoom won three consecutive games, recording its 46th win (3 draws and 64 losses) of the season.

Kim Joon-wan (left fielder), Kim Hye-sung (second baseman), Dawson (center fielder), Song Sung-moon (third baseman), Kim Hwi-jip (shortstop), Lee Joo-hyung (designate hitter), Jeon Byung-woo (1st baseman), Lim Byung-wook (right fielder), and Kim Si-ang (fourth baseman) started the game.
The starting pitcher is rookie Oh Sang-won. In 2023, he wore a Kiwoom uniform as a second-round pick.
He lost a point in the first inning. After two outs, Junghoon Lee hit a hit, and An Chi-hong made a ball that fell in front of the right fielder. Right fielder Lim Byung-wook flew himself, but it did not become a catch. As the ball fell out, the defense time was extended, and the first baseman stepped home.
He also gave up two runs in the second inning, but Kiwoom consistently scored from the third inning.
Kim Jae-woong pitched three consecutive games in the eighth inning with a 6-4 lead, but allowed two runs with two hits and one walk. With the score tied 6-6, he scored one run in the bottom of the eighth inning, and closer Lim Chang-min pitched three consecutive games in the top of the ninth inning. Lim Chang-min kept the team’s victory by neatly organizing An Chi-hong, Han Dong-hee, and Lee Hak-joo.
Lim Byung-wook, who failed to catch a dive in the first inning, played four base games with two hits and two walks, including a home run.
After the game, Lim Byung-wook said, “I think such a play came out in the first inning because I wanted to do something.” Should I say tenacity. “That kind of play came out because of the desire to catch the ball,” he explained. 먹튀검증
Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki said, “All the players showed their tenacity to win,” adding, “There were many bullpen pitchers today, but the pitchers gave their best pitching, so we were able to prevent the inning with a minimum number of runs.”
Head coach Hong went on to say, “I brought the atmosphere with Lim Byung-wook’s home run in the fourth inning, and thanks to the batters’ concentration in the seventh and eighth innings, I was able to succeed in reversing the game.”
