The match between LG and NC in Jamsil on Tuesday drew much attention due to a situation in the bottom of the ninth inning. When LG was finishing the game, the bench did nothing and left it to the promising player. LG lost the chance and ended up losing in overtime.
LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop should have listened to all sorts of instructions. The biggest complaint was "Why didn't you use Oh Ji-hwan as a substitute," but it turned out that Oh could not come out as a substitute in the first place due to a sore side.
If so, I wonder why he even went as far as to trust and leave it to Lee Young-bin.
At the bottom of the ninth inning with a score of 5-5, he had a chance to end the game with one out and third base. It was Lee Young-bin's at-bat. Earlier, Koo Bon-hyuk hit a double and was replaced by Choi Won-young as a pinch runner. Park Hae-min made a one-out third base with a send-off bunt.스포츠토토
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop had to make a decision.
"I had a lot of thoughts since the second base with no outs. It was a match against (Lee) Young-bin anyway. How should I compete? Should we play Suicide or Safety Squeeze since we have good runners?"
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop decided to strengthen the team. "(Former) Bon-hyuk also grew up by finishing the game under such circumstances. In the end, I thought that if I hit a sacrifice hit or a hit to finish it, the team would win and it would be the basis for some good growth for Young-bin," he explained.
Win or lose, give Lee Young-bin some opportunity and the result is that the coach himself will take responsibility.
This is by no means just for Lee Young-bin's 'individual'.
What if this situation had happened to the Korean Series? Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop gave a wise answer to Woo Moon.
"If it's the Korean Series, we don't use up all the entries that much. We'll save them all," Yeom said with a smile.
This is why I didn't ask Lee Young-bin to bunt me to try it. This is to make even one more card to use when facing extreme situations such as the Korean Series. He saw if Lee Young-bin could be that card.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "We have Koo Bon-hyuk and Song Chan-ui (back-up). Two players are very helpful, but we need one more team to become a normal team. Whether Young-bin comes up or Jeong-bin comes up, one more person should come up to the role of Chan-ui or Bon-hyuk. That's how you get another card in this situation."
He then emphasized, "To make that card, you are investing a lot now. It would have been better if the success experience had been achieved here, but if you go to failure, the team has a lot to lose anyway. There is definitely a reason why someone comes out and doesn't come out."
As for the outcome anyway, the coach will be hit with an arrow. Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "With many options, the coach makes a choice. The coach takes responsibility. I lost the game because of me. I thought hard about it, but I was wrong anyway. I need to reduce that part to achieve my goal," vowing to make up for it.
