“Please, get some runners on base” — KIA can’t leverage Kim Do-young; Nos. 1 and 2 batting average “just 0.083”… Manager Lee’s worries grow [PO3]
Kim Do-young (23, KIA Tigers), who collected three home runs and eight RBIs in the three-game Junior Playoffs, is swinging a hot bat with a .455 batting average (five hits in 11 at-bats) despite intense defensive attention in the Playoffs. The problem, however, is that he is rarely being set up for success. KIA suffered a 4-6 comeback loss to Samsung in the third game of the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO Postseason Playoffs (best-of-five series) at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 29th. KIA had won three

One more loss and it is over. Cornered, the KIA Tigers are launching a counterattack led by their foreign ace James Neal. Additionally, veteran pitcher Yang Hyeon-jong, who can be called the heart of the KIA Tigers, is on standby. On the 29th, KIA lost 4-6 to the Samsung Lions in Game 3 of the 2026 Shinhan KBO Postseason Playoffs (best-of-five series) held at Gwangju-KIA Champions Field. KIA had successfully taken the early lead by winning Game 1 of the playoffs 5-1, but after losing Game 2 3-8,
Even if Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae are left out, is it still a secret? Moreno’s 'confidentiality' principle... Also silent on the reason for Cho Gue-sung’s exclusion: Between player protection and fans’ right to know [Cheonan On-site]
If Son Heung-min (LAFC) or Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich) are ever excluded from the national team in the future, will the reasons remain unknown then as well? The cautious answers given by Robert Moreno, head coach of the South Korea national football team, have left behind yet another layer of curiosity. On the 29th, Coach Moreno held a press conference at Cheonan Korea Football Park in Chungnam Province and announced the list of 26 players selected for the November A-matches. South Korea will pl
From "Neighborhood Baseball" to "All Cards on the Table": Im Chang-yong Criticizes KIA Again... Predicts Samsung Will Clinch Korean Series Berth with 3 Wins and 1 Loss
"All their cards are on the table." Having predicted an upset by the KIA Tigers based on the overwhelming momentum they displayed in the Junior Playoffs, he has now reversed his stance, stating that the Samsung Lions will ultimately advance to the Korean Series. He once again expressed disappointment with KIA's management during the Playoffs. KIA suffered a 4-6 comeback loss to Samsung in Game 3 of the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO Postseason Playoffs (best-of-five series) held at Daegu Samsung Lions Par
"There are pitchers like this in the world": Ashby, who volunteered for a slave-like role, sets new record with 89⅓ innings of heroic effort and 18 scoreless innings in postseason... Praise: "He tried to go back up again"
18 scoreless innings. Although he rested for the final game that decided the World Series championship, Aaron Ashby (28) was an indispensable pitcher in the Milwaukee Brewers' title run. On the 29th (Korean time), at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, USA, the Milwaukee defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in Game 5 of the 2026 Major League Baseball (MLB) World Series to claim the championship. Behind this historic achievement of reaching the top of the World Series for the first time since
