Wedge three-pointer in the seventh inning of Game 4
LG Twins "Captain" Oh Ji-hwan homered in three consecutive games in the Korean Series (KS-7 best-of-four).
This is the first time a player has homered in three consecutive games in a single series.
Oh hit a home run in the top of the seventh inning of Game 4 of the 2023 Shinhan Bank Solar KBO KS against KT Wiz at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on Nov. 11.
With runners on first and third with one out in the top of the seventh inning and his team leading 6-1, Oh pulled a fastball changeup from reliever Joo Ju-kwon and launched a three-run blast over the right field wall.
It was his third consecutive home run.
Oh hit a solo home run in the top of the sixth inning of the second game against KS at Jamsil Stadium on Aug. 8, when his team was down 0-2. 카지노사이트랭크
The day before, in the KS Game 3 at KT Wiz Park in Suwon, he hit a come-from-behind three-run shot with runners on first and second in the ninth inning, when his team was down 5-7, to lead LG to an 8-7 victory.
This is only the second time in history that a KS player has homered in three consecutive games, following Kim Jae-hyun of the SK Wyverns (now SSG Landers) in 2007-2008.
Kim homered in three consecutive games from Game 6 of the 2007 KS to Games 1 and 2 of the 2008 KS.
Oh is the first to homer in three consecutive games in a single KS. 섯다
With the score at 6-1 in the top of the seventh inning, he took a 1-3 pitch changeup from KT reliever Joo Woo-jung over the right field fence for a three-run home run. Following his solo homer in the sixth inning of Game 2 and a game-winning three-run shot in the ninth inning of Game 3, Oh stamped his presence with the first three-game homer in a single series in KS history. Oh added an RBI single to right field in the top of the eighth inning with runners on first and second for a 12-1 lead.
"Winning is more important than anything else," Oh said after Game 3 of the series, "We had the lead, but you never know what's going to happen. One ball can turn it around. I don't plan to relax. I just want to lead a good atmosphere," he warned. Oh Ji-hwan, who joined the team in 2009, wants to win the KS more than anyone. LG's KS title clock has been stopped since 1994. Oh did not let go of his nerves and came close to fulfilling the Twins' dream with a series of blasts in the KS.
