Moon Bo-kyung, Consecutive Home Runs Against Yang Hyun-jong... 5 Consecutive Wins, LG Twins ‘Solidifies the Lead’

Led by Moon Bo-kyung's consecutive home runs, the LG Twins continued their 5-game winning streak and took a big step towards taking first place in the regular season for the first time in 29 years.

In the visiting game against KIA in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 19th, LG shook off the opponent's last-minute chase and won 4-3.

LG, which had set a goal of 85 wins to qualify for a direct ticket to the Korean Series, achieved its 75th win (47 losses, 2 draws).

With only 20 games left in the regular season, LG needs just 10 more wins to achieve its own goal. 카지노사이트킹

On the other hand, KIA gave up a game even with Yang Hyun-jong in place, and fell into a 6-game losing streak at the threshold of fall baseball.

The player responsible for LG’s attack that day was third baseman Bo-kyung Moon.

In Moon Bo-kyung's first at-bat in the second inning, he targeted Yang Hyun-jong's second pitch fastball and hit a first-run home run that went over the right wall.

Moon Bo-kyung, who came to the plate in the 3rd inning with 2 outs and 1st and 3rd bases, once again knocked down Hyun-jong Yang and hit a 3-run home run to make it 4-0.

Moon Bo-kyung, who hit 8 home runs in 2021 and 9 home runs in 2022, achieved his first 10 home runs since his debut with this home run.

In addition, this is Moon Bo-kyung’s first consecutive home run since his debut.

KIA started the chase with Choi Hyung-woo's 1-run home run in the 6th inning, and then Na Seong-beom's 2 RBI hit in the 8th inning gave them a 1-run lead.

Then, the LG bench made a big move by bringing in closer Go Woo-seok with no outs in the 8th inning.

Go Woo-seok was in danger of giving up a run in the 9th inning with one out and runners on first and third base, but he caught Kim Do-young with a double play and preserved the team's victory.

LG starting pitcher Lee Ji-kang earned his first win as a starter in 5 innings, pitching 4 hits, 1 walk, 1 strikeout, and no runs.

KIA starter Yang Hyun-jong lasted 7 innings with 5 hits, 2 walks, and 4 strikeouts, but suffered his 10th loss (7 wins) of the season by allowing 4 runs on two home runs to Bo-kyung Moon.
