The LG Twins had recently improved their performance and were aiming to leap into the mid-tier rankings. The Doosan Bears attempted a counterattack with ace Kwak Bin, but failed to provide support to the batting lineup.
The professional baseball LG Twins swept all three games against the Doosan Bears and Jamsil and won four games in a row.
LG won a thrilling 1-0 victory after a pitching battle against Doosan in the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League visiting game held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 3rd.
LG, who had won 4 games in a row, widened the gap with 4th place KIA Tigers, whose game was canceled due to rain, to 2.5 games and set out to solidify 3rd place.
LG selected Doosan ace Kwak Bin to pitch in the game with second-year pitcher Park Si-won.
Park Si-won blocked the Doosan batting lineup with 2 hits, 2 strikeouts, and no runs in 5 innings, earning his first win since his debut.
Doosan Kwak Bin pitched well in 7 innings, allowing 3 hits (1 home run), 1 walk, 8 strikeouts, and 1 run, but was unable to smile due to the batting failure.
The first point scored by LG came from Austin Dean's bat.
After one out in the 4th inning, Austin targeted Kwak Bin's 157 km/h fastball and drew his 36th solo arch of the season, crossing the center fence.
Austin narrowed the gap with Kim Do-young (KIA, 39), who ranked first in the league in home runs, to three.
Go Woo-seok, who signed a contract with LG the day before with an annual salary of 500 million won and returned to the KBO League, was registered in the first team that day.
However, he was not able to pitch on this day as the club decided to give him additional rest.
For LG, Park Si-won took charge until the 5th inning, and then Lee Woo-chan, Kim Jin-soo, and Kim Young-woo each pitched one inning without allowing a run.
LG closer Son Joo-young, who pitched in the 9th inning, maintained victory in the first 3 consecutive games of the season and earned his 26th save of the season.
Son Joo-young allowed a triple to Kim Min-seok with one out, but struck out Yunio Severino and took the lead.
After allowing Jo Soo-haeng to walk and then stealing bases, he was in danger of being tied with 2 outs and 2nd and 3rd bases, but he held pinch hitter Park Ji-hoon to a grounder and maintained the victory.
