Winning streak + possibility of reaching the top = Tigers fans nationwide are excited…8 million spectators. It’s up to KIA?

He has recently won seven consecutive games with a great victory against the Incheon SSG on the 3rd. At the beginning of the second half, the return of the 50% winning rate was a ground task, but now it is chasing the third-place SSG Landers beyond the fourth-place NC Dinos, which is one game behind. The “Autumn Baseball Promotion in Gwangju,” which seemed not easy, is already in sight.

The value stands out because it is seven consecutive wins made in variables. KIA recently left after foreign pitcher Mario Sanchez was diagnosed with an injury for three weeks. In the meantime, the batting line is exploding, leading the winning streak. Yang Hyun-jong, who had been sluggish on the mound, was revived, Thomas Panoni and Yoon Young-chul are also in charge of more than five innings, and the bullpen, which is organized around Lim Ki-young, is also helping.

The autumn baseball season deserves excitement from KIA fans across the country.
