“Today was an important game that could lead to a good flow, and Moon Sung-joo hit a crucial three-run RBI, bringing the momentum of the game to our side.”

LG Twins, led by manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, swept the three-game weekend series against the Samsung Lions.

LG defeated Samsung 7-4, buoyed by Moon Sung-joo's performance, which included four RBIs in the away game held at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 11th. This sweep allowed LG to head to Seoul in good spirits.

Starting pitcher Koen Win recorded 5 innings, allowing 7 hits (2 home runs), striking out 3, and giving up 4 runs. Jang Hyun-sik, who took the mound in the 9th, pitched an inning scorelessly and earned his third consecutive save. Hong Chang-ki (3 at-bats, 1 hit, 2 runs, 2 walks) and Kim Hyun-soo (4 at-bats, 2 hits, 1 RBI) also contributed to the team's victory.

Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop noted after the game, “It's disappointing that starting pitcher Koen Win allowed 2 home runs in the 6th inning, but he did his role well as a starting pitcher.”

He added, “Today was an important game that could lead to a good flow, and Moon Sung-joo hit a crucial three-run RBI, bringing the momentum of the game to our side.”

Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop also said, “We were in need of additional scoring, and Hong Chang-ki helped us secure the victory with his good plate discipline.”

He did not forget to praise closer Jang Hyun-sik, who earned 3 saves over two days. Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop stated, “I want to tell closer Jang Hyun-sik, who recorded 3 saves over two days, that he did a great job, and given that it was a 2 p.m. game following a doubleheader, the players must have been tired, but I want to commend them for showing focus on the victory.”

Finally, he expressed his gratitude to the fans, saying, “We were able to win thanks to the many fans who came to the away game and showed passionate support. Thank you.”

Meanwhile, LG will face the Kiwoom Heroes in a midweek three-game series at Jamsil Stadium starting on the 13th. Foreign hitter Austin Dean, who had been experiencing dizziness, is expected to rejoin the lineup, adding more strength to the batting order.
