The NC Dinos monopolized the victory over the LG Twins for three consecutive weekend home games despite unfavorable factors that coach Kang In-kwon was sent off.

The fourth-place NC beat the leading LG 5-3 in the home game of the professional baseball 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League at Changwon NC Park on the 27th.

On this day, both teams played in a chaotic situation.

Referee Yoon Sang-won, who was slightly hit by NC Park Kun-woo's pitch in the bottom of the ninth inning the previous day (26th), missed the game. If the ball reaches the referee first, not the fielder, it becomes an "infield hit."

LG suffered a walk-off reversal in the bottom of the ninth inning in the game on the 26th, and an article was posted online signaling referee Yoon Sang-won's terror.

The KBO referee committee decided not to put referee Yoon Sang-won, who was originally scheduled to be the referee on the 27th, in the game.

In the bottom of the first inning, LG starter Lim Chan-kyu hit NC Park Kun-woo's head with a fastball in the bottom of the first inning, which began in a strict atmosphere, with police inspecting the baseball field.

After the top of the third inning, NC coach Kang In-kwon was ordered to leave automatically while protesting the video reading results.

The game proceeded amid tense tension inside and outside the stadium.

Choi Dong-hwan, who took the mound in a hurry after Lim Chan-kyu went down the mound with no outs in the first inning, threw a ball that hit Jason Martin.


LG tied the score 1-1 with Shin Min-jae's "second baseman sacrifice fly" in the top of the third inning with one out and runners on first and third bases.

Shin Min-jae's missed ball headed to the center fielder and second baseman, and NC second baseman Park Min-woo caught it as a dynamic.

First baseman Hong Chang-ki ran to second base, turned around and ran to first base, and third baseman Park Hae-min headed home with a "retouch" after Park Min-woo's catch.

Park Min-woo threw to first base and caught Hong Chang-ki, who failed to return to base.

NC expected an "inning shift without LG scoring," but the referees ruled that Park Hae-min stepped home before the first baseman was out after an agreement.

NC manager Kang In-kwon objected to the request for a video review when the decision was not reversed. Coach Kang, who knew that he would be sent off automatically if he protested against the results of the video reading, continued to protest. 스포츠토토


NC players also had a strong desire to win.

NC took a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the third inning when Yoon Hyung-joon hit a sacrifice fly to left field with no outs and runners on second and third bases made by Son Ah-seop's left-handed hit and Park Min-woo's double to right field.

At the bottom of the fourth inning, Park Min-woo hit a two-run double to the left field with two outs and runners on first and second base to run away 4-2.

When LG recovered one run with Austin Dean's timely double in the top of the sixth inning, NC also added one run with Park Min-woo's heavy timely hit at second base with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning. Park Min-woo had four hits and three RBIs in five at-bats.

LG chased 3-5 with pinch hitter Kim Hyun-soo's timely hit to the right from first and second bases with one out in the top of the eighth inning, and continued the opportunity to first and third bases with one out.

However, when Austin grounded out to third base, Shin Min-jae, who was digging home, was tagged out, and Moon Bo-kyung stepped down with a grounder in front of second base with two outs and a full base made by Oh Ji-hwan's walk.

The gap between the two teams narrowed to 4.5 games as the leading LG lost three consecutive games and the second-place KT Wiz won three consecutive games.
