The LG Twins, who have only one game left in their long journey at the beloved Jamsil Baseball Stadium, finally broke their frustrating losing streak in front of home fans who filled the stadium.
LG, led by manager Yeom Kyung-yeop (58), defeated the NC Dinos 6-1 in a home game against them on the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League schedule held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul City on the 6th.
LG, which had fallen to 4th place in the standings after suffering an 8-game losing streak late in the season, erased the gap with the 3rd-place KIA Tigers, who lost that day. Since they are only behind in winning percentage, they have reached a situation where they can reverse the ranking on their own in the final head-to-head matchup.
LG players burned with the will to win from the early stages of the game. Starting from the bottom of the 1st inning, Park Hae-min and Song Chan-ui set up a base-loaded opportunity with consecutive hits, resulting in runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs. Austin Dean did not miss an errant pitch by Choi Sung-yeong, smashing a lead-off three-run home run over the left-center fence. With this home run, Austin tied KT's Sam Hilliard for second place in that category.
While Moon Bo-kyung widened the score gap with a solo home run, starting pitcher Park Si-won delivered his best performance of the season. Although he allowed one run in the 2nd inning, he pitched 5⅓ innings while throwing 86 pitches, covering his personal single-game career-high innings (previously 5 innings against SSG on September 30). Park Si-won, who pitched well with 5 hits allowed, 2 walks, 4 strikeouts, and 1 run allowed, secured his second win of the season (4 losses).
The bullpen that took the mound after Park Si-won also exerted their strength. Starting with Go Woo-seok (⅔ innings), Woo Kang-hoon, Kim Young-woo, and Jang Hyun-sik (all 1 inning) each delivered perfect pitching in succession to secure the victory.
After the game, manager Yeom Kyung-yeop praised the team, stating, "Thanks to Austin's lead-off three-run home run early in the game and Moon Bo-kyung's home run, we were able to bring the overall flow of the game to our side. In a situation where additional runs were needed, Mun Jung-bin's RBI and Song Chan-ui's home run laid the foundation for victory."
He continued, "Park Si-won did his job well as the starter, and Go Woo-seok, who followed, shut down the inning in a situation where we could have been chased. The remaining pitchers also finished well until the end, allowing us to win," giving them a thumbs up.
Now, LG will prepare to say goodbye at Jamsil Baseball Stadium with the Doosan game on the 7th as their final match. This is their last regular season game there. Perhaps thanks to this, all 23,750 seats were filled despite it being a weekday. It was the 46th sellout of the season.
Manager Yeom conveyed, "Many fans came today and made Jamsil Baseball Stadium a sellout. Thanks to the support you sent, we were able to break the losing streak and win. I am grateful."
With this victory, LG has made it possible to secure 3rd place on their own power and advance directly to the Junior Playoffs. They are still in 4th place due to a lower winning percentage, but if they win all four remaining games, they can swap rankings with KIA. This is because there is one head-to-head matchup against KIA scheduled as the final game on the 12th. A fierce battle is expected until the very end.
