LG Twins are on the brink of becoming the first team to surpass 1.6 million spectators in a single season in the history of Jamsil Stadium.

On the 4th, LG officially announced, "In the home game against KIA held at Seoul Jamsil Stadium on this day as part of the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League regular season, we recorded a cumulative attendance of 1,550,988 for the 2026 season, setting a new club record for the highest single-season attendance."

The previous record was 1,542,458 spectators in the 2025 season.

Additionally, LG explained, "We achieved our 44th sold-out crowd this season, also surpassing the club's all-time record for the most sellouts in a single season (43 times) set in the 2025 season."

LG stated, "Including the game on the 4th, we have attracted an average of 22,157 spectators per game across 70 home games this season. At the current pace, it is highly likely that Jamsil Stadium will see its first-ever breakthrough of 1.6 million spectators in the remaining three regular-season home games."

However, despite creating club history, LG fell to a 5-6 defeat after their bullpen wavered on the 4th, sinking into a seven-game losing streak. Now, LG will attempt to break the losing streak against KIA at 2 p.m. on the 5th, led by foreign ace Tolerhurst.

Meanwhile, LG has once again secured a spot in the postseason this season, marking their eighth consecutive appearance in the playoffs. This is a first in the 10th-team era. Furthermore, considering the entire history of the KBO League, this record ranks fourth, following Samsung (12 consecutive years, 1997-2008), and tied for second place are Samsung (9 consecutive years; no postseason held in 1984 and 1985, 1986-1993) and KIA (1986-1994).
