The Resentful Ceiling of Gocheok Dome
The Resentful Ceiling of Gocheok Dome... Lotte Na Kyun-an, Return After 25 Days<\/h2>
5 innings, 6 hits, 5 strikeouts, 3 runs against Kiwoom
Professional baseball Lotte Giants right-handed pitcher Na Gyun-an (25) finished his comeback game leaving a feeling of regret.
Na Kyun-an started as a starting pitcher against the Kiwoom Heroes held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 19th and allowed 3 runs with 99 pitches, 6 hits, 2 walks and 5 strikeouts in 5 innings.
On the 25th of last month, in the match against Doosan Bears, Na Kyun-an, who went down the mound after complaining of thigh pain, returned to the first team after 25 days, and continued to pitch well in the early stages of the game.
In the second inning, he struck out Siang Kim and Taejin Kim as an outfield floating ball in the crisis of a bases loaded with one out, and passed without a run.
Lotte batters attacked Kiwoom starter An Woo-jin and scored 1 point each in the 1st and 2nd innings to lighten Na Kyun-an’s shoulders.
Na Kyun-an, who had endured well, gave up a double to lead hitter Kim Hui-jip in the fourth inning, and then scored the first run on a sacrifice fly to Lee Ju-hyeong from first out and third base.
In the 5th inning, bad luck overlapped and allowed a turnaround.
It was good to deal with picky hitter Kim Hye-seong with a fly ball in the outfield in 1st out and 2nd base, but Dawson got an infield hit and did not finish the inning.
When Lotte first baseman Ahn Chi-hong tripped and fell, Na Kyun-ahn went directly to first base defense, but Dawson"s feet were quick by a narrow margin.
In the following two outs, 1st and 3rd base, Lotte left fielder Lee Jung-hoon failed to catch the falling ball to Song Seong-moon"s outfield floating ball, giving up 2 RBIs and a double.
Unless you are an experienced outfielder, you often complain of difficulties defending outfield fly balls during daytime games because of the color of the ceiling of Gocheok Dome.
In the end, Kyun-an Na passed the mound to In-bok Lee at the start of the bottom of the 6th inning, when the team was trailing 2-3, and finished the return match.
