Kim Min-seok · Roh Jin-hyeok ‘Boom Boom’… Lotte beats Hanwha to chase lead
Lotte Giants decorated the midweek game with a winning series and closely pursued the lead.
Lotte won the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League Hanwha Eagles away match held today (18th) at Hanwha Life Insurance Eagles Park in Daejeon, with starters Han Hyun-hee’s strong fight, Kim Min-seok and No Jin-hyuk’s home run, and a 7-3 victory.
2nd place Lotte, who avenged the loss the previous day and recorded a win rate of 0.636 with 21 wins and 12 losses, pursued the first place SSG Landers (24 wins, 13 losses, 1 draw, win rate 0.649) with a difference of 0.013 odds, whose match was canceled due to rain that day.
As soon as Lotte started in the first inning, first batter Kim Min-seok hit a superior solo home run against Hanwha starter Jang Min-jae to take the lead.
It was the first home run by Kim Min-seok, a ‘new high school graduate’, in 29 games.
