That's what Lee Seung-yeop emphasized… As soon as it started, I was in a hurry, and what should I do with Doosan, who was exhausted from "falling 9th place."

Doosan lost to SSG 3-5 at Jamsil Stadium on Tuesday. In fact, it was a bit of a shock. Doosan's starting pitcher on the day was Jack Rogue, a foreign pitcher. On the contrary, the starting pitcher was Jeon Young-joon, who will make his first appearance in the first division this year. It was a must-win matchup. It was all the more so considering that substitute starters should start on Wednesdays and Thursdays.스포츠토토

However, it was twisted from the beginning. He allowed Go Myung-joon, the leadoff hitter in the second inning when the score was 0-0, to get on base due to an error. Third baseman Lim Jong-sung made an error. The crisis that started from here eventually led to Chae Hyun-woo's two-run timely hit after two outs, giving up the first run. If there were no mistakes, the score did not have to be given. Considering the game's performance and the final score, there were still some regrets.

Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop recalled the previous day's situation ahead of the match against Jamsil SSG on the 21st, saying, "The team is a little bad, so I don't have enough power to defeat it," adding, "The team needs to return as soon as normal to have the power to prevent errors and to not make errors. These days, I think the players are a little depressed because they have lost consecutive games."

Lee requested to change the atmosphere of the team first and prevent leaking points first. "It became a bit difficult as I lost a point (due to mistakes) after the second inning with two outs yesterday. Yesterday was yesterday, and we have to play another game today," Lee stressed. However, Doosan players' bodies remained solid again on Wednesday, overshadowing Lee's emphasis. The game was twisted as he allowed points that he did not need to give in the beginning of the game.

The starting pitcher on the day was Choi Min-seok, a high school graduate who will make his debut in the first division. He had no choice but to be nervous. That was why it was important for his seniors to block variables by banking on their solid defense. After allowing three outs in the first inning, Choi cruised through the second inning by catching two out-counts. However, he gave up consecutive walks to Choi Joon-woo and Ahn Sang-hyun after two outs, and Jeong Joon-jae gave up his first run after a timely hit falling next to the right field.

There was nothing we could do about it up to this point. It was important to prevent extra runs since it was two outs. However, something got twisted starting with Cho Hyung-woo's at-bat. First baseman Jung Joon-jae attempted to steal second base. In that Ahn Sang-hyun, who is on third base, is also a fast runner, Doosan's defense had to defend to check the movement of the third baseman. Yang Eui-ji threw the ball to second base here, and third baseman Ahn Sang-hyun stopped the start and rushed home.

Second baseman Kang Seung-ho cut in the middle, but the cut position was somewhat ambiguous. He practices a lot in preparation for this situation, but there was a feeling of a rather late cut. In addition, time was slightly delayed as Kang Seung-ho couldn't get the ball out at once, and at that moment, Ahn Sang-hyun swept home first. Under the circumstances, Doosan's defense was also conscious of SSG's play and defended, but failed to defend. If Ahn Sang-hyun had been caught here, the inning would have ended as it was, and the atmosphere could have been transferred to Doosan, but it was not.

Cho Hyung-woo's infield hit was also expected to have good defense, but he failed to do so. One more decisive error came out here. When Jihoon Choi grounded out to first base, first baseman Yang Seok-hwan failed to catch it, which increased the number of runs. It was a fastball, but it was Yang Seok-hwan's pitch that went straight to the front. Even though he couldn't catch the ball at once, if he blocked it with his body, he would be out 100 percent. However, this hit fell through Yang's crotch. It was a fatal error.

Doosan, which was dragged 0-3 by giving two points that did not have to be given in the second inning, failed to target the opponent's starter Drew Anderson at all. Park Jung-soo and Park Shin-ji, who took the mound after Choi Min-seok, gave four more points as they collapsed in the fifth inning, and the game's lead was completely transferred to SSG. Doosan's batting lineup seemed to have lost its fighting spirit, and SSG saved the remaining three innings with Kim Gun-woo, Han Doo-sol and Choi Hyun-seok, saving the winning team, and even announced the game's prospects on the 22nd.

Doosan, which has been in the postseason for the past two years, is having a hard time this year, revealing problems in both pitching and batting. The mound has seen a number of injured people, and the batting lineup is showing limitations as the main hitters are sluggish. There is hardly an atmosphere of performance. In the meantime, Doosan had 19 wins and 27 losses (.413), which widened its gap with the first-runner LG by 11.5 games. It is 8.5 games behind the third-ranked Lotte, and four games behind the fifth-ranked KT. With a sense of crisis coming too soon, how to handle this mood has emerged as the biggest issue in the early race.
