The second playoff game between LG and Samsung, which was scheduled to take place at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on Friday, was canceled due to rain from the afternoon. The second playoff game will be held at the same place on Saturday.먹튀검증
Samsung, which had a landslide 10-4 win in the first round, had an opportunity to continue its winning streak, but was canceled due to rain. However, Samsung is not just sad.
Samsung coach Park Jin-man said in an interview before the game, “It’s better not to rain. I’m worried about injury and I don’t think my normal performance will come out.” This means that it’s better to cancel the game than to play in the rain.
Samsung has many bad memories of this season’s rain. On June 29, the game started with a rain forecast, but when the game was canceled due to rain with a 7-1 lead, all the points scored were blown away. In the aftermath of the game, Kim Young-woong was found to have suffered micro-damage to his right large retirement muscle, and bullpen Kim Tae-hoon suffered a ruptured abdominal muscle. Coach Park has often said during the season, “The rain and we don’t match well.”
As Connor Seibold is out due to injury, Samsung, which plays a series with a foreign pitcher, has extended Danny Reyes’ rest day by one day. Reyes, who started Monday and threw 101 pitches during 6.2 innings, had to take the mound in Game 4 after resting for three days. Reyes can normally rest for four days and play in Game 4. Samsung kept its starting pitcher as Won Tae-in in Game 2.
LG, which was in a slump after losing in the first round, welcomed the rain. LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop smiled brightly when he entered the pre-match press conference room.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop welcomed the move, saying, “I thought it would be nice if we could take a day off. I thought it would help us a little bit, but it just rained.”
LG, which had previously announced Detrick N.S. as its starting pitcher in the second round, changed its starting pitcher to Son Joo-young. Manager Yeom, however, wanted to release Son, who had initially shown good pitching in the semi-playoff, in the second round. However, the team failed as he said that he needed one more day off in the training part. As he was able to earn extra day off due to rain, he was able to start as he wished. Son is also better than N.S. in matches against Samsung, with one loss and an earned run average of 3.00, while Son was strong with two wins and a draw and an earned run average of 1.04 in three matches.
“I got an ‘OK sign’ after checking the training part and Son Joo-young,” Yeom said. “The flow could change. ENCE can get enough rest and go out. Ellyager Hernandez, who is also a midfielder, will also rest. It was helpful because I was able to take options with high probability as it rained.”
