LG Wins Against SSG with Great Mobility… Choi Won-tae Allowed 1 Run in 6 Innings
The LG Twins, the defending professional baseball champions,
won a complete victory over the SSG Landers thanks to the good pitching of starting pitcher Won-tae Choi,
who recorded a quality start (less than 3 earned runs in 6 innings) for the first time this season, and the mobility of the batting line.
LG defeated SSG 4-1 in the 2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League visiting game held at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 19th.
LG gave up the first run in the first inning due to Choi Won-tae’s poor ball control. 메이저사이트
