At the beginning of the game, he was a bit weak, but his ability to manage crises stood out. In the 1st inning, Kim Hye-sung doubled and Edison Russell walked, and Lim Byeong-wook struck out 3 pitches with 1st and 2nd base, and after 2 outs in the 2nd inning, Kim Hui-jib hit a double, but Lee Hyung-jong was struck out again with a miss swing. . He showed off his power struggle by striking out all three out counts in the second inning.
Na Kyun-an gave up the first run in the third inning, leading 3-0. Starting with a hit by leader Kim Jun-wan, Kim Hye-seong walked, and Lee Jung-hoo hit right-handed, and the bases were safely loaded. Again, his managerial skills shined through. He met Russell and induced a double hit, exchanging two outcounts and conceding points. The 2nd out and 3rd baseman overcame it by catching Lim Byeong-wook as a floating ball in center field.
[OSEN = Correspondents Gocheok and Min Kyung-hun] Lotte starter Na Gyun-an, who allowed Lee Jung-hoo, who came out as Kiwoom’s leading hitter at the end of the 6th inning, to hit in front of the right fielder, is regretting it. 2023.05.28 / rumi@osen.co.kr
Na Gyun-an met the requirements for a winning pitcher by making three-way innings in a row in the 4th and 5th innings. And he was in the 6th inning with a hit and a stolen base by Lee Jung-hoo, who led the team, but he caught Lee Won-seok with a floating ball in center field and achieved his 7th quality start of the season.
Na Kyun-an was replaced by Kim Do-gyu in the 7th inning, leading 5-1, and the game ended happily. 94 pitches. After winning 6 innings (86 pitches) against Sajik NC on the 23rd, he only had four days off and went to the mound twice a week.
The problem was the back door. The signs were not good from the time Kim Do-gyu and Kim Jin-wook gave up one run in the 7th inning with a 5-1 lead. In the 8th inning, veteran Kim Sang-soo came out, but Edison Russell, Lim Byung-wook, and Lee Won-seok hit 3 hits in a row, and the bases were loaded safely, and Kim Dong-heon hit a sacrifice fly. Kim Hwi-jip, the follow-up, was also allowed a hit, and it was difficult to find stability.

Another veteran, Myung-jun Yoon, took over the baton in the ongoing crisis of bases loaded. He struck out Hyung-jong Lee on three pitches, the first batter, and took a breather, but met Ji-yeol Lim and allowed a come-from-behind home run. 2B-1S A 140km fastball thrown from an unfavorable count savagely headed over the left-middle fence. It was the moment when Na Kyun-ahn’s victory flew away.
Lotte was unable to attack Lim Chang-min, the opponent’s finisher, in the 9th inning and suffered a 5-7 come-from-behind defeat. If they had won that day, they could have surpassed SSG and climbed to second place alone, but from 3rd place, they would have to play a fateful 3rd match against 1st place LG on the 30th. I always regretted the hunting of the transfer student duo that I believed in.
