Hong Chang-ki scored 1 point with 2 at-bats and 2 walks that day. The pattern of ending Seongju Moon when Hong Chang-ki reached base continued. Moon Sung-joo recorded 2 hits and 4 RBIs in 5 at-bats that day.
LG was dragged throughout the game with Lee Jeong-yong scoring 3 runs in the beginning of the game. He made up for 1 run in the 5th inning, but the defeat was dark. So, in the second half of the game, Jamsil Bee started to fluctuate with Hong Chang-ki and Moon Seong-ju. In the bottom of the 7th inning, Hong Chang-ki went on base with a walk, and Moon Seong-joo exploded a triple in the middle right. And with Kim Hyun-soo’s timely hit, LG made it 3-3.
In the 8th inning, another chance was taken by Hong Chang-ki and Moon Seong-ju. With Park Seung-wook and Ahn Chi-hong making a mistake in combination play, Hong Chang-ki, who entered the plate with 1 out and 12 base, got on base with a dead ball to Lotte closer Kim Won-joong. It was the moment when the first company and the bases were made. And against Kim Won-jung, Moon Seong-joo’s heavy hitter broke out. The score gap widened to 7-4, and the hit effectively ended the game.

In the game yesterday, Hong Chang-ki recorded 2 hits in 4 at-bats, and Moon Seong-joo recorded 1 hit in 3 at-bats. It can’t be a huge firepower. Hong Chang-ki recorded more than two on-base a day during the three-game series, and Moon Seong-ju solved it behind Hong Chang-ki.
The great thing about Hong Chang-ki and Moon Seong-joo is that they monopolize the first and second place in batting average and on-base percentage in the team even though they are both table setters. Including today’s game, Hong Chang-ki ranks first with a batting average of 0.317, and Moon Seong-joo ranks second with a batting average of 0.315.

In terms of on-base percentage, Hong Chang-ki was overwhelmingly first (0.442) and Moon Seong-joo was second (0.407) until the game. Both of them hit base twice, so the on-base percentage ranking will remain the same after the game. It literally means that they are the best hitters in LG. Of course, compared to other table setters, there are evaluations that run base play is disappointing, but there is no perfect player in the world. And there are players like Shin Min-jae and Park Hae-min in the team who make up for that shortcoming.
Behind Hong Chang-ki and Moon Bo-kyung, 꽁머니 good hitters such as Kim Hyun-soo, Oh Ji-hwan, Austin Dean, and Park Dong-won are holding on. Even if they just get on base, LG has nothing more to hope for. At least, it is not an exaggeration to say that Hong Chang-ki and Moon Seong-joo have virtually finished their three-game series against Lotte.
The LG Twins caught up with SSG, who lost to Samsung, by half a game thanks to the performance of an invincible table setter. Starting next Tuesday, LG will compete against SSG for first place in Incheon.
