(Suwon = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Kyung-yun = The 20th 0-0 draw in professional baseball came out.

1st place kt wiz and 3rd place LG Twins drew 0-0 with starting pitchers Young-pyo Ko and Chan-gyu Lim in the lead in the Shinhan Bank 2021 SOL KBO League match held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 25th.

The 0-0 draw, in which the two teams failed to draw a single point, came after the match between NC Dinos and LG on May 14, 2015 in six years and four months.

The game was played in the form of a ‘luxury pitcher battle’ between KT’s Ko Young-pyo and LG’s Lim Chan-gyu.

Koh Young-pyo escaped the crisis by striking out Chae Eun-seong with a vain swing and treating Oh Ji-hwan with a second-base infield ground ball in the 1st inning, 2nd and 3rd base.

The 2nd and 3rd innings were blocked by a tripod. In the 4th inning, he allowed Oh Ji-hwan to walk, but he finished the inning by catching a stealing attempt.

Young-pyo Ko threw 105 balls in 8 innings, with 3 hits, 2 walks, 6 strikeouts and no runs.

(Incheon = Yonhap News) Reporter Sang-yeon Kim = A professional baseball game between SSG Landers and LG Twins held at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 8th. LG starting pitcher Lim Chan-gyu is working hard in the bottom of the first inning. 2021.9.8 goodluck@yna.co.kr

LG starter Lim Chan-gyu also played as hard as Ko Young-pyo.

Chan-gyu Lim gave up a walk to Cho Yong-ho in the first inning, but escaped the crisis by striking out Jae-kyun Hwang, a foul fly by Baek-ho Kang, and striking out looking at Seong-woo Jang.

Since then, Chan-gyu Lim has maintained a goalless streak with a near-perfect match operation.

He pitched 3 hits, 1 walk, and 3 strikeouts with 92 balls in 7 innings.

LG had a decisive opportunity in the final attack in the ninth, but failed to score.

In a one-on-one and third-base opportunity made by Hong Chang-ki and Kim Hyeon-soo’s consecutive hits, Seo Geon-chang hit Cho Hyeon-woo with a double-blow blow that led to second baseman – shortstop – 1 baseman.

kt also failed to score a goal in the bottom of the ninth, so it was hard to distinguish between superiority and superiority.

KT’s leading hitter, Kim Min-hyeok, hit a right-handed hit against Ko Woo-seok in the ninth inning, but was slaughtered due to Hwang Jae-gyun’s failed bunt operation.

kt continued the opportunity with Hwang Jae-gyun’s walk, but the match ended as the follow-up batter Baek-ho Kang hit second base – shortstop – 1 baseman.

In the second half of this season, the KBO League only plays 9 regular innings and does not play overtime.

LG director Ryu Ji-hyun was sent off after protesting the decision to read the video about Kim Yong-ui’s check-and-check in the 7th episode.
