(Sports Seoul | Reporter Kang Yoon -sik) LG has changed. It looks stronger in the second half. The reversal defeat decreased and the reversal increased. Using this as a power. He is in the first chase with a terrible momentum.

Already two -thirds of the regular season. The KBO League, which seems to have started yesterday, is slowly entering ‘Climax’ in the hot heat. The fierce top ranking competition is now somewhat solidified. Hanwha, LG, and Lotte, who have been names in third place, have a sense of stability.

Of course, the ranking can change in it. It will be a picture that LG wants. He succeeded in narrowing the difference between the lead Hanwha, which was once up to 5.5 games. This is because of the decent flow of the second half. It is an atmosphere where you can recapture the first place.

The reversal defeat was reduced, and the reversal was great. LG’s reversal wins by June is a total of 14 wins. This is the eighth of the 10 KBO League teams. The reversal defeat was 16 losses. This is fourth overall. The number of reversal wins is the lowest in the league, and the number of reversals was the top of the league.

From July, the opposite data is shown. As of the 29th, LG’s reversal was ranked second in Hanwha (7 wins). On the other hand, the defeat is only two losses. As the number of Gyeonggi is small, there are not many samples. Nevertheless, the reversal is the top of the league and the reversal defeat is the lowest in the league.

Last week, KIA and LG’s ‘back heart’ was revealed in three consecutive weeks. The first game held in Gwangju on the 22nd. LG, which led to 4-1, allowed 6 points at the end of the eighth and was taken to 4-7. It also seemed to add another reversal. However, he won five points, starting with a hit at the beginning of the ninth, and completed the 9-7 reversal.

I took the momentum properly. Doosan’s first match with Doosan on the 25th. It was losing 3-4 up to nine times. The opponent’s finishing pitcher Kim Taek -yeon seemed to become darker. This time, he also made a party with Oh Ji -hwan. In the end, it is a thrilling reversal of 6-5.

Even if it is not necessarily a reverse victory, there are more games to win the score in the second half. On the 22nd, Gwangju KIA, the next day, the next day, won the home run of Moon Bo -kyung, which was extended. In the game on the 26th, Kim Hyun -soo’s final RBI came out.

The concentration of batters stand out. In particular, Oh Ji -hwan shines. Still, the feeling of blow has not come up completely. In July, however, Ojihwan’s 7-9 batting average was in the second half. In the midst of difficulties, the team has a great strength.

The strong team usually says ‘Jill Gyeonggi -do’. This is the case of LG showing in July. The ranking fight is not over yet. Based on the stronger background, it is the first place. skywalker@sportsseoul.com
