Doosan Bears achieved 5 consecutive wins in professional baseball exhibition games.

Doosan defeated the KIA Tigers 5-4 in the home game held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 15th, winning all five exhibition games.

Doosan starting pitcher Choi Won-jun did not give a walk and held the KIA batting line to 4 sporadic hits and 1 run.

Doosan, which took a 3-0 lead thanks to Yang Seok-hwan’s sacrifice fly in the first inning and Heo Gyeong-min’s two RBI double to left-center in the third inning, allowed a solo home run to KIA’s fourth batter Na Seong-beom in the top of the fourth inning.

KIA captain Na Seong-beom decorated the first arch of the exhibition game with a 130-meter home run that scooped Choi Won-jun’s curveball and flew over the center wall.

KIA turned the game around to 4-3 thanks to Socrates Brito’s lead-off home run in the top of the 6th inning, but in the bottom of the 7th, Seung-Hyeon Jang hit a timely hit to the right field to tie the score, and then lost to Min-jae Jeon, who hit a 1-run home run to left.

Doosan’s Lee Young-ha, who is playing as a bullpen pitcher this year, cleaned up the first inning in the 8th inning, and rookie Kim Taek-yeon, Doosan’s closer candidate, hit three batters in the 9th inning and earned his second save.

In Daegu, the Samsung Lions, who were on a three-game losing streak, defeated the Lotte Giants 3-2.

Samsung, which was down 0-2 thanks to solo shots from Ko Seung-min in the first inning and Yoon Dong-hee in the third, turned the game around with shortstop Kim Young-woong’s superior three-run home run from first and second base with no outs in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Lotte starting pitcher Na Kyun-an, who had been pitching well without any major crises, collapsed after a single home run and became the losing pitcher.

Even though Lotte got 8 hits and 4 walks, it struggled to score, leaving 8 bases remaining due to two double plays.

The LG Twins gave up 14 hits in Changwon and defeated the NC Dinos, who were on a 4-game winning streak, 11-7.

Except for 4th hitter Austin Dean, all 8 elite starting batters hit hits, showing off their power as the best batting line for the second year in a row.

Son Joo-young, a candidate for LG’s starting spot, gave up 4 hits, including 1 home run, and 2 walks in 4 innings, allowing 2 runs.

Right-handed hitters Park Geon-woo and Kwon Hee-dong, the center of NC’s batting lineup, got their first taste of the game in an exhibition game by hitting home runs that went over the right and left fences, respectively. 섯다
