(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kang Yoon -sik) The mound is shaken. It is not difficult to see anxiety at the time of the fall baseball game. After all, you have to do it in the blow. Fortunately, there is a place to lean. The main characters include Choi Hyung -woo (42), Kim Sun -bin (36), and Na Sung -bum (36).

In the second half, KIA’s pace is jagged. It seemed to have a mid -range competition in the early stages. Then he was twisted with seven consecutive victories. Since then, he has been struggling with a streak and streak.

It is great to be disappointed in the mound. This is especially true. Finishing pitcher Jung Hae -young went down to the second group. It is close to censure. The problem is that Jeon Sang -hyun, who was in charge of the back door, was also anxious. I only heard a representative case. As of the 20th, it is the 9th overall with a 4.72 ERA in August. Overall, it flutters.

The bullpen is not good, but the starter has a variation for each player. James Nail and Yang Hyun -jong form a one -to -one punch of KIA in the second half. All of them are good at one -point average ERA. However, the remaining three to five starts are greatly wounded. It is painful that Adam’s return from the injury was sluggish with an average ERA in 3 games after returning.

It is having difficulty in keeping the score. The regular season is also short. There is not enough time to change something big now. You have to save what you can do well. Bats are also ups and downs, but veterans are focusing on.

Choi Hyung -woo, who was hotter than anyone else in the first half at the age of ‘disruption’, is also strengthening in the second half. It is true that the pace is somewhat dropped. It is a mid -20th batting average. Still, he is a player with a shot, so he is afraid of his opponent. As of the 20th, it is second in the home run in the second half.

Kim Sun -bin, who suffered in the first half due to injury, has completely raised a sense of blow. Immediately after returning, I had a child, but it exploded properly from mid -August. The batting average in August is close to 40 %. Na Sung -bum has a similar flow. It has struggled in July, and has been empowering the team since August.

How powerful it is when they burst at the same time, it was revealed in Gwangju Kiwoom on the 19th. Choi Hyung -woo and Na Sung -bum wielded two hits and three RBIs including home runs. Kim Sun -bin also helped with two RBIs. I was anxious with nine points in the mound, but I was able to win 12-9 victory thanks to the explosion of the veteran three musketeers.

The truth of the veteran is revealed in a decisive moment. I have experienced the prenatal faucet. From KIA’s point of view, expectations for Choi Hyung -woo, Na Sung -bum and Kim Sun -bin are inevitable. It is no exaggeration to say that these bats have KIA autumn baseball. skywalker@sportsseoul.com
