With the LG Twins winning seven consecutive games to overcome their slump at the beginning of the season and take the lead, LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop (58) credited the team's upward progress to the team and coaches. And he expressed satisfaction with the appearance of multi-resource Chun Sung-ho (29) and new bullpen card Woo Kang-hoon (24), who appeared newly this season.

When asked about the secret to his long winning streak ahead of the Lotte Giants match at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 14th, Yeom said, "The result of the seven consecutive wins is entirely thanks to our coaches and senior players' good defense of the team's color that has been emphasized over the past three years."

Coach Yeom cited "details" and "basics" as LG's strengths. "In fact, if you look back on the past games, there are times when the bat doesn't fit, but defense and base running have no slump," he said. "The fact that seniors took the lead and created a culture of focusing on defense and base running helped us endure difficult times." Although he faced a crisis due to injured players and poor condition at the beginning of the season, he mentioned that so-called "new cards" such as Chun Sung-ho and Woo Kang-hoon filled the vacancy well.

Coach Yeom also showed a firm attitude toward the so-called "after-effects of winning" that the winning teams have historically experienced through winning the 2025 season. "I've won in the 2023 season and I've learned a lot as I've played the 2024 season," he said. "This season, not only the coaches but also senior players are leading the juniors."

Coach Yeom said at the end, "The coach is the place where he has to say the result in the end. We will make good results through a good process and continue to keep the colors of the LG Twins, which are recognized by fans through the results," he said.

Meanwhile, in order to challenge for the eighth consecutive win, LG made the starting lineup in the order of Chun Sung-ho (third baseman), Moon Sung-joo (left fielder), Austin (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (designated hitter), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Hae-min (middle fielder), Hong Chang-ki (right fielder), Lee Joo-heon (capture), Lee Joo-heon (capture), and Shin Min-jae (second baseman). The starting pitcher is left-hander Song Seung-ki.

Prior to the game, he called up another left-hander Kim Yoo-young instead of canceling left-hander Lee Woo-chan, who complained of symptoms of elbow collision syndrome. Coach Yeom said of Lee Woo-chan's condition, "I took him out of the entry for a while for injection treatment. "I will be able to fill it up for about 10 days and come back up," he explained.
