Will they win in 29 years
from web site
There is only one win left. The LG Twins are on the verge of winning the Korean Series in 29 years.
LG won a great 15-4 victory over kt wiz in Game 4 of the 2023 KBO Korean Series (four wins out of seven) at KT Wiz Park in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province on the 11th.
The game was a new record. In the top of the seventh inning, LG broke the previous record of most consecutive hits (six batters) in the Korean Series with eight consecutive hits from No. 1 Hong Chang-ki to No. 8 Moon Sung-joo. Oh also hit home runs in three consecutive games from the second game to the day, setting a new record for most consecutive home runs in a single Korean Series. LG captain Oh Ji-hwan, who recorded eight RBIs, emerged as a strong candidate for the MVP of the Korean Series
He recorded 17 hits, including starter Kim Yoon-sik's 5 2/3 innings of one run and three home runs by Kim Hyun-soo, Moon Bo-kyung and Oh Ji-hwan.
As a result, LG's Korean Series record is 3 wins and 1 loss. After losing 2-3 in the first game, he turned the tables with consecutive come-from-behind wins in the second and third games. If he adds just one more win in the fifth and seventh games at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul, which will be held from the 13th to the 15th, he will win the Korean Series for the first time in 29 years since his second victory in 1994. Until last year, 16 out of 17 teams with 3 wins and 1 loss (including a draw) in the Korean Series have won the championship champagne. Currently, LG has a 94% chance of winning.
Among baseball fans, attention is being paid to whether Rolex watches and Awamori soju, "symbols of LG's desire to win," will finally see light. President Koo Bon-moo, who died in 2018, brought Awamori soju from Okinawa, Japan, shortly after winning LG in 1994, saying, "Let's toast if we win again." During his overseas business trip in 1998, he bought a Rolex watch that was worth 80 million won at the time as a gift for the MVP when he won the next championship. Since then, as LG has not won, Awamori Soju and Rolex watches have been sleeping in LG Champions Park in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province and in the safe of the club's office, respectively.
