KT Changes Direction, Focuses on Second Place Shooter… “Focus on Games you can Win”

Chasing down first place LG has become realistically difficult... “I’m worried about next week’s starting rotation.”

KT Wiz, who won 1 win and 2 losses in 3 consecutive games against the 1st place LG Twins, reset the team's direction for the remainder of the season. 카지노사이트

Focus on the second-place shooter rather than the unreasonable pursuit of the first place.

KT coach Lee Kang-cheol said, “We have a tight schedule ahead of us,” ahead of the 2023 professional baseball visiting game against SSG Landers at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 8th. “We need six starting pitchers next week, but there are no replacement starters in sight.” He said.

He went on to say, "I will not put all my effort into the tough games, but rather focus on the games I can win."

KT poured in the first three starters, including William Cuevas, Wes Benjamin, and Go Young-pyo, in a three-game series against LG on the 5th to 7th, which was the watershed in the chase for first place, but achieved a record of 1 win and 2 losses.

The gap between KT Wiz and LG widened to 6.5 games, reducing the momentum of the chase.

In order for KT to rise to first place, it must achieve overwhelming results in the remaining 26 games, but realistically, this is not easy.

As coach Lee Kang-cheol said, it is difficult to create a starting rotation right away.

The double header against the Hanwha Eagles held at Daejeon Hanwha Life Eagles Park on the 17th is also problematic.

Coach Lee said, “I am thinking about which game to focus on,” and added, “I will give my strength to the games we can win.”

Coach Lee Kang-cheol also said about the power of first-place LG, which recently played three consecutive games, “I felt that it was very strong.”

Manager Lee said, "LG's batters were strong. I think the pitchers had a difficult game because they kept trying to steal even after getting on base."

Regarding Korean ace Ko Young-pyo, who performed poorly in the game against LG on the 7th, allowing 6 runs in 6 innings, he said, "It seems like his stamina has declined somewhat," and "He was a bit shaken at this time last season as well."
