LG Twins pitcher Kim Yoon-sik battled through inclement weather to pitch five innings and pick up his fifth win of the season.

LG snapped a three-game losing streak with a rain delayed 4-3 victory over Hanwha in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon on Friday, improving its record to 71-2-47 on the season. Kim Yun-sik earned the win with five innings of four-hit ball, three walks and three strikeouts.

It rained off and on throughout the day. Kim Yun-sik had no choice but to pitch in the scattered rain. After the game, Kim Yun-sik said, “It was not an easy game as it kept raining in the first and second innings, but my brothers scored runs for me, so I was able to hold on.” “The ground was bad, so the plate was very slippery and I couldn’t throw my pitches properly, but I think I found my groove as the rain stopped in the third inning.”

LG struck first in the top of the second inning, but Kim Yun-sik, who was shaky after giving up a leadoff walk to Choi Jae-hoon, gave up a double to Nick Williams to tie the game at 1-1. After a sacrifice bunt by Lee Jin-young, he caught a squeeze attempt to extend the inning, but gave up back-to-back doubles to Moon Hyun-bin and Kim Tae-yeon for two more runs.

However, LG immediately capitalized on its opponent’s mistakes in the top of the third, scoring two runs on a sacrifice bunt by Shin Min-jae and an RBI single by Kim Hyun-soo with the bases loaded to tie the game at 3-3. Kim Yun-sik held on until the fifth inning without allowing another run, and LG regained the lead in the top of the fifth on a triple by Shin Min-jae and an RBI single by Austin Dean. With the help of a rain delay, they held on for the win 카지노.

Kim Yun-sik said, “Hanwha’s hitters have been hitting well lately, so I tried to dig in according to my analysis, but I struggled with my changeup. Both my fastball and changeup didn’t work well. I think I need to pay more attention to my pitches in the next game.” “The weather was bad, but I want to thank the fans for coming out. I will try to win all my remaining games,” he said.
