KT’s starting pitcher, Ko Young-pyo, got the win on the mound. Ko pitched seven innings of four-hit ball with one walk, three strikeouts and one earned run to pick up his fourth win of the season.

At the plate, infielder Lee Ho-yeon, who was acquired from Lotte on the 19th of last month, was the hero of the game. Lee, who started in the seventh spot and batted second, hit an RBI single with runners on first and second in the top of the second inning.

Hwang Jae-gyun went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored, and Kim Min-hyuk went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and a walk, while other key batters also had solid performances to attack the Lotte mound. Second-year right-hander Young-gun Park and closer Kim Jae-yoon shut down the Lotte offence with a triple play in the eighth and ninth innings, respectively, to earn holds and saves.

“Starting pitcher Ko Young-pyo pitched well as usual, and Young-hyun Park and Kim Jae-yoon, who came on after him, also did a good job,” said KT manager Lee Kang-cheol. “I would like to congratulate Young-hyun on his 10th hold.”

Lee Ho-yeon’s hit in the first chance of the game brought us the win, and with high concentration at the plate, the batters were able to get on base and create good opportunities.” “All the players worked hard and we are grateful to the fans for their support,” he added.
