(Sports Seoul | Jamsil = Reporter Kang Yoon -sik) LG’s momentum that pursues the first place is not unusual. The second half was properly momentarily. First 10 games in the second half. Compared to the first 10 games, which were the first place in the same rate, it is different.

About two weeks have passed since the second half. The leaderboards are still shaking. Hanwha-LG-Lotte’s Version looks strong, but the atmosphere has changed subtly in it. Hanwha Pace falls a little, and LG-Lotte goes up.

The second place LG is scary. In the first 10 games in the second half, he scored 8 wins and 2 losses. The atmosphere comes to mind immediately after the opening. LG ranked first with 9 wins and 1 loss in the first 10 games. It’s similar, but it’s different from then.

At the beginning of the season, LG boasted a ‘perfect’ balance. Selection and bullpen average ERA are both second. Team batting average was also second with 0.294. One batting average is also 0.326. The batting average of 7-9 times is also 0.327, the second from above. The mound is high, but the bat broke from start to finish. The first place was natural.

The first 10 games in the second half are unfortunate. The average ERA is 3.15 (4th). But the bullpen is 5.05. The appearance of the game was also gone. One batting average is 9th with 0.256.

Of course, there are some similar parts. It is a overall blow. It has survived since July. Shin Min -jae and Moon Sung -joo are the top -of -the -line set -ups. Moon Bo -kyung and Park Dong -won also work on the center line. Park Hae -min, a lower batting line, is also active.

As a result, the batting average of the first 10 games in the second half was 0.285, followed by Samsung. The batting average seven to nine times is 0.360. Especially fire in the game. Many reversal wins.

The late concentration is not just a bat. Jamsil Doosan Exhibition is a typical example. LG, who scored three points at the beginning of the ninth, allowed a chase at the end of the ninth. A breathtaking situation. Koo Bon -hyuk, the third baseman, finished the game with a ‘super catch’ that hits the batting of reason. There’s a good defense for good attacks.

Players are confident. Koo Bon -hyuk, who is active in the early days of the airborne, was cautious, but was confident in recapture. “I think it’s not easy,” he said. “I think we can catch enough if we follow well.”

Overwhelmingly, the team that wins in the game is the strong team. The team that is likely to play is also a strong team. If LG is the former immediately after the opening, LG is the latter in the second half. It’s definitely strong since then. skywalker@sportsseoul.com
