“We just need a +5 (win-loss margin) every month.”토스카지노
That’s the goal for the LG Twins in the second half of the season, according to manager Yoon Kyung-yeop.
As of the 1st, LG leads the season with a record of 46 wins, 1 tie, and 27 losses, a winning percentage of 0.630, and a win-loss margin of +19. They have finally caught up with the SSG Landers, who are the only team in the top six (0.611) and have been battling for position throughout the first half of the season. They have more than eight games in hand over the third-placed NC Dinos (36-1-33, third) and Lotte Giants (36-34, fourth). “Despite losing three games in a row twice, we won five games in a row with good content at the end, which is why we were able to finish June well,” said Yeom.
The reason LG was able to create such a flow was because of its unwavering form from month to month. After a slow start to April, the team soon picked up the pace and finished the month with a 15-11 record, a winning percentage of over 5 per cent. Riding the momentum, LG went on to top the monthly win rate in May with a staggering 16 wins, 1 draw, and 6 losses for a win percentage of 0.727. It continued the trend last month with 15 wins, 1 draw, and 9 losses for a winning percentage of 0.625. After starting April with a +4 win-loss margin, he has maintained his pace in May (+10) and June (+6).
The offence is flawless. As of day 1, LG’s team batting average is 2.085, which is first overall, and their team ERA is 3.56, which is second only to the Kiwoom Heroes (3.52). It’s a testament to the team’s strength that they’ve been able to pull through after a rough start to the season, with early injuries to closer Jeong Woo-young, struggles from set-up man Jeong and a lacklustre performance from captain Kim Hyun-soo. Now that Go Woo-seok is back, and Jung Woo-young and Kim Hyun-soo have found their pace, there are no gaps. This is why LG is expected to continue its dominance in the second half of the season.
“We just need to have a +5 (win-loss margin) every month. If we can do that in the remaining months, I think we can achieve our goal,” he said. “We’ll have to make adjustments in July (due to fewer games), but other than that, our goal is +5 every month,” he emphasised.LG is off to a 1-1 start in the first two games of July against KIA. How LG fares in the remaining 10 games before the All-Star break will determine whether they achieve the goals Yeom set for them in the latter nine games.
