The defending champion, the "No. 1 winner," lost three consecutive games with the opening. But LG Twins worries were a luxury. Already, he has won seven consecutive games and is firmly in the lead.

LG, led by head coach Yeom Kyung-yeop (58), beat SSG Landers 9-1 in the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League home game at Jamsil Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 12th.

LG, which had 9 wins and 1 loss in 10 games played in April, maintained its joint top position with KT Wiz with 9 wins and 4 losses.

He penetrated the weaknesses of the shaky opponent's defense. Moon Sung-joo and Austin Dean took the lead with consecutive timely hits in the third inning with one out and second base, and added two more points in the fourth inning amid SSG's successive defensive errors. In the fifth inning, the SSG defense failed to stabilize and scored five runs with two hits and two outs, solidifying its victory.

He made nine runs on just nine hits. Despite SSG's failure to take center stage and self-destruction, LG players showed well-organized batting and defense. It was a game and series that showed why LG was the winning team last year.

On the mound, starter Anders Tolhurst's good pitching shone. He pitched 94 pitches in six innings, giving up four hits, three outs, and four strikeouts. Even when the offense was prolonged and it was easy to lose the tempo, he pitched scoreless pitches by neatly blocking the fifth and sixth innings.

Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop praised "Tollhurst as an ace and gave him good pitching to continue his winning streak."

"Moon Sung-joo's first RBI and Austin's additional RBI in the first half of the game in the batting line were able to bring the overall flow of the game," he said. "In a situation where additional points were needed, Oh Ji-hwan's good contact play start made additional points, and he was able to play comfortably by scoring with the batters' good base play and concentration." Oh Ji-hwan led the overall lineup with three hits," he said, expressing satisfaction.

The week ended with a victory. Coach Yeom said, "I want to praise the players who produced the result of five consecutive wins in a week."

Although he won last year's championship, it is the first time in more than eight months that he has swept the series in Jamsil since his three consecutive wins against KT Wiz from July 29 to 31 last year. Moreover, 23,750 seats were already full an hour before the game began. It was the second consecutive sold-out game following the previous day and the sixth full-capacity case among seven home games this season.

Coach Yeom thanked, "Thanks to the passionate support of the fans, I was able to sweep after a long time at Jamsil Home."
