Song Myeong-ki 6 innings, 7 strikeouts and no runs, counter-throwing… NC Exciting 5 straight wins

The NC Dinos took advantage of Song Myung-ki’s counterplay as a stepping stone to an exciting five-game winning streak and climbed one step up to fourth place.

NC won the 2021 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League home game 2-0, which was held on the 16th by the LG Twins to Changwon NC Park, Gyeongnam.

Last year, the champions of the regular league and Korean series, NC, achieved five consecutive victories and jumped to fourth place by pushing Kiwoom Heroes to fifth place ahead of them in win rate.

Starting pitcher Song Myung-ki struck out seven over six innings, allowed only two hits and two walks, and tied the LG line to zero.

Song Myung-ki, who had recently lost five consecutive games, added another victory in 84 days since the match against the Lotte Giants on June 24, recording his seventh win (7 losses) of the season.

In the 4th inning, in the only crisis with 2 outs 2nd and 3rd base, Kim Min-sung struck out and put out the fire himself.

LG starting pitcher Lee Min-ho also caught double-digit strikeouts (11) for the first time since his debut and pitched 6⅓ innings with two runs (one earned run), but he had no choice but to resent the lineup.

In the second inning, NC drew the finish line with a left-handed double by Yang Eui-ji, followed by Roh Jin-hyuk’s right-middle hit in the second inning.

Noh Jin-hyuk took advantage of the error of LG center fielder Hong Chang-ki, who failed to catch the batted ball at once, and went to second base, and then landed on third base with Lee Min-ho’s fierce pitch during Kang Jin-seong’s batting.

Then, when Jin-seong Kang’s left-handed hit came, he easily stepped on the home and widened the score to 2-0.

Kiwoom wrote a drama in two outs at the end of the ninth at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul and drew a dramatic 8-8.

Kiwoom, who had consecrated 7 points to Hanwha in the early 6th inning against 1-1, and was taken away, made up for three points at the end of the 8th, falling 2-8.

Then, at the end of the ninth inning, Hanwha finished in a draw that seemed to have won against Jung Woo-ram.

Kim Hye-sung hit a one-run time hit that fell to the left center at 2nd and 1st and 2nd base.

In the second and second bases that followed, Kim Woong-bin hit a sweeping double that fell on the left line, completely erasing the smile from Jung Woo-ram’s face.

It was disappointing for Kiwoom to end in a draw as the batted ball in compensation went to the left fielder in the two-team first and second base, which was followed by pinch hitter Lee Ji-young’s intentional walk.

Kim Hye-sung and Kim Woong-bin had three RBIs each. Kim Joo-hyung, who played as a shortstop for Kiwoom No. 8, was hit by Carpenter in three consecutive at-bats, setting the record for the most balls hit in a game (3).

Not only did Kiwoom’s Eric Yokishi lose 8 runs (4 earned runs) in 5 innings, but also Hanwha’s Ryan Carpenter’s victory with 2 runs (1 run) in 6 innings has completely disappeared.

At Jamsil Stadium in Seoul, 6th place SSG Landers and 7th place Doosan Bears drew 3-3 after tying three times.

When SSG took the lead with Choi Joo-hwan’s right-handed hit from 2nd and 3rd in the first inning, Doosan scored the first tie with Park Gye-beom’s ground ball at 1st 2nd and 3rd, which was made with two walks and a send bunt in the second inning.

As SSG tied three hits from Choi Joo-hwan, Han Yu-seom, and Park Seong-han in the early 5th inning to lead 2-1, Doosan also started the game at 2-2 with SSG third baseman Choi Jeong-e’s first-base error and pinch hitter Kim In-tae’s right-handed strike at the end of the 6th inning. turned

Doosan, who followed, turned the tide for the first time thanks to Jose Fernandez’s superior solo homer in the bottom of the 7th.

SSG balanced immediately in the eighth inning after conceding a goal.

Park Seong-han and Choi Ji-hoon’s hits and Choo Shin-soo’s infield groundballs caught in two-off first and third bases, and Lee Jeong-beom hit the left-handed strike that tied the score for the 3-3 third.

Choi Joo-hwan, who played for Doosan until last year and wore the SSG uniform as a free agent this year, appeared as first baseman in the fourth batter and wielded four hits in five at-bats.

The KIA Tigers struggled to beat the Samsung Lions 6-5, which had been chasing after Daegu away, and reached 40 wins in the season in 104 games.

Samsung, who was tied with two points until the 7th by Ki-Young Lim from KIA starter, caught up 3-5 with Jose Pirella’s home run in the 8th.

Then, at the end of the ninth inning, which was 3-6, KIA shortstop Park Chan-ho’s error took the opportunity and he followed Kim Ho-jae’s double RBI double to the bottom of the chin with a lead of 5-6.

Koo Ja-wook’s right-handed hit continued two-to-one chances at first and third base, but Pirella was caught with a ground ball at second base and Samsung fell to their knees.
