Although Lotte Giants foreign right-hander Jeremy Bisley (31) did not become a winning pitcher, he helped his team win the game with an overwhelming ball and mature attitude.

Lotte won 3-1 against the Kiwoom Heroes of the "2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League" at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 11th after a close game in overtime. With the victory, Lotte won three consecutive games.

It was the starter Bisley who laid the foundation for victory. Bissley threw 92 pitches on the day, scoring five hits, seven strikeouts, one walk, and one run in six innings. In particular, he overwhelmed the opponent's batters with power, recording a maximum speed of 154 kilometers in the fastball. There was a loss in the middle of the game, but he did not falter and maintained his pace and performed his role as a starter perfectly. Above all, it was encouraging to shake off the bad performance of six runs in four innings against SSG, which was the previous appearance. Although he did not become a winning pitcher, he played a role in laying the groundwork for the reversal.

After the game, Bisley said, "I tried to implement the plan I prepared before the game as much as possible on the mound," adding, "I lost a few runs without luck, but I think the opposing batter hit well." After the loss, I quickly regained my rhythm and focused on maintaining my pace," he said.

The joy of the team's victory was greater than the regret of not being a winning pitcher. Above all, Bissley credited his teammates, saying, "It is meaningful that the team did not lose concentration until the end and played well and led to victory."

He also thanked Lotte fans for their enthusiastic support. He said, "As Rodriguez said, the fans' passionate support is definitely felt in the stadium. That energy is a big boost on the mound. We will continue to show better performances so that we can repay our expectations," he said.

Coach Kim Tae-hyung also highly evaluated Bisley's performance. Manager Kim mentioned the height of the mound, saying, "The starting pitcher Bisley pitched well with one run in six innings, and the following must-win teams, Choi Lee-joon, Park Jung-min and Choi Jun-yong, blocked well without additional runs."

Lotte will be able to seek to enter the mid-range early in the season by confirming Bisley's rebound, starting with Elvin Rodriguez's good pitching of one run in eight innings against Kiwoom in three consecutive games this weekend.
