Fifty Fifty will return to the K-pop scene as a five-member group in September, about a year after its agency, Attrakt, was embroiled in a legal dispute with former members over their exclusive contracts.

In June of last year, the original members of Fifty Fifty — Sio, Saena, Aran, and Keena — filed for an injunction to suspend their contracts with Attrakt. They cited Attrakt’s failure to provide financial data and lack of care for their health conditions as reasons for seeking the injunction.

However, the Seoul Central District Court denied their injunction and subsequent appeal. The appeal was pursued by three members, excluding Keena, who later withdrew her legal action and chose to return to Attrakt. Subsequently, the company terminated its contracts with the remaining trio and filed a lawsuit seeking 13 billion won ($9.9 million) against the singers and their “supporters.” Among them is SIAHN, also known as Ahn Sung-il, the producer behind Fifty Fifty’s smash-hit, “Cupid” (2022).

According to Attrakt, the rebranded version of Fifty Fifty will feature Keena and four new members, who were picked through closed auditions.

“We confirmed the four new members in April,” the company said in a statement released Friday. “We previously announced that Fifty Fifty would make a comeback in June, but we postponed our plan to September to raise the quality (of its music and performance.)”

The label also recalled the “painful time,” briefly explaining in the statement what happened to the group over the past year.

“Last year, Fifty Fifty set good records with ‘Cupid, securing the No. 17 and No. 8 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S. and the Official Singles chart in the U.K., respectively,” it said. “It also won the K-pop Song of the Year award at 카지노 the 2023 iHeartRadio Music Awards in the U.S., among others, receiving so much love from K-pop followers worldwide. However, there was a painful time when we had to halt everything before showing more results.”

It added, “We are clearly aware that we have grasped this miraculous opportunity thanks to the group’s fans, who have been waiting for so long. To cater to their expectations, we plan to unveil a new song before the official release of our upcoming album and come up with diverse promotional activities. We will do our best to make Fifty Fifty the best K-pop girl group.”

Fifty Fifty, which arrived on the music scene with “Cupid” in 2022, rose to meteoric stardom after the retro-infused tune became a viral hit on the Chinese video-sharing platform, TikTok. Despite being a rookie girl group under a small K-pop label, it made international headlines for entering the much-coveted Billboard main singles chart only 130 days after its debut. However, its musical activities have been on a hold due to the ongoing legal tussle.

Last August, Attrakt secured an investment from David Yong, CEO of the Singapore-based investment firm, Evergreen Group Holdings, and started to search for new members to join Fifty Fifty. It reportedly held auditions in various countries including Korea, Japan, Singapore and Thailand.

Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) Gov. Lee Bok-hyun called for expanding the scope of a board of directors’ fiduciary duty to include shareholders and scrapping criminal punishment for breach of trust by corporate executives under Korea’s commercial law on Friday.

The move aims to restrict corporate boards railroading at the expense of minor shareholders. It instead seeks to lift the burden of potential stint in prison for top executives undertaking high-risk high-stakes business decisions.

Many in the business community say the revision reflects concerns of a greater number of frivolous criminal lawsuits that have long frustrated their corporate activities.

In his view, strengthening shareholder protections and the penalty provisions for breach of trust by corporate executives should be given equal priority.

“Challenges abound, but criminal punishment should be warranted with the clear evidence of misconduct,” he said 카지노 during a briefing at the FSS. “Instances include seeking personal gains, among definitions of the offense to be revised.”

Monetary compensation in a civil court is far more preferable and more appropriate than an outright indictment, he added.

“Criminal punishment for breach of trust is disproportionate to the offense in the context of commercial law. The priority objectives should be more about predictability, not penalties.”

At least 10 Danes have reported illnesses such as vomiting after consuming Buldak’s spicy noodles, according to Danish authorities, Friday. The Korean instant noodles produced by Samyang Foods were recalled earlier this week in Denmark due to their excessive spiciness.

“One of the hospitals in Denmark has a specialized unit for poisonings. They informed us that they received about 10 inquiries from individuals experiencing symptoms such as abdominal pain and vomiting,” a Danish Veterinary and Food Administration said in response to The Korea Times’ inquiry about potential illnesses linked to the Korean noodles.

The official did not provide specifics regarding the timing or severity of the reported symptoms.

Confirming that the three Buldak noodle products are being recalled in Denmark, the official added that no further measures are currently planned regarding Samyang’s products.

On Tuesday (local time), the Danish food administration recalled three types of Buldak spicy noodles — Samyang Buldak Hot 스포츠토토존 Chicken Ramen 3x Spicy, Samyang Buldak Hot Chicken Ramen 2x Spicy and Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen Stew Type — citing a risk of acute poisoning due to the high capsaicin content in these products.

Danish officials advised consumers who have these products to “discard them or return them to the store where they were purchased.” They also urged parents to contact the Poison Line if their child exhibits acute symptoms after consuming the noodles.

It remains unclear whether the 10 reported illnesses associated with the noodles directly prompted the Danish recall.

This marks the first instance in which Buldak noodle products, exported to approximately 80 countries, have been recalled for being too spicy.

Shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. (24, Kansas City Royals), who boasts perfection in offense, defense and baserunning, has risen to No. 1 in batting average.

Kansas City held a home game against the New York Yankees at Kapman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on the 14th (Korean time). 토토사이트 순위

Wit Jr., who started the game as Kansas City’s No. 2 and shortstop on the day, led the team’s lineup by making two hits and one walk from three times at bat. He is the only multi-hit player in his team.

Witte Jr. hit a hit by Nestor Cortes in the fourth inning, got on base, and made his team’s first run at the follow-up double. He also added a hit and a walk in the sixth and eighth innings.

Wit Jr., who was on third base including multi-hitters, had a batting average of 0.330, 11 homers, 50 RBIs, 59 runs and 93 hits, and an on-base percentage of 0.379 OPS of 0.943 in 70 games of the season.

As a result, Witt Jr. beat Luis Arraez with a batting average of 0.326 to become the lead in the Major League Baseball in this category. He is one cent shy of Juan Soto, who is ranking second in the American League.

Witte Jr. recorded 30 home runs last year, but his on-base percentage was very low at 0.319. However, he has shown a high on-base percentage this season due to improved walk-and-strike ratio.

Witt Jr. is also leading the team by excelling in defense and baserunning. Watchers say his 11-year-to-288.7 million-dollar contract is worthwhile.

Meanwhile, Kansas City allowed its team to come from behind by 2-3 by allowing three runs in the eighth inning due to setbacks in relief. The team is on the verge of losing all four consecutive away games against the New York Yankees.

However, Kansas City won the game 4-3 after successfully targeting New York Yankees closer Clay Holmes in the last nine innings. Maikel Garcia hit a walk-off hit.

Hitters are struggling due to strong pitching and batting performance in the Japanese pro baseball league. Pitchers are struggling due to strong performance by pitchers. They are witnessing a series of complete pitching wins and a flurry of shutout losses. Three of the 12 teams that played in six Interleague (alternative match) games on Tuesday failed to score a point. On the previous day, Nippon Ham Fighters right-hander Hiromi Ito (27) and Seibu Lions left-hander Jihiro Sumida (25) threw 98 and 99 pitches, respectively, to post nine scoreless innings and shutout of the Maddox Lions.

A batting average of .300 is very rare. Only four batters meet the requirements in both the Pacific League and the Central League. Competition for No. 1 in batting in the Pacific League is fierce among the all-time “throwers.” The batting race between a top-rated Japanese star and a rookie who started this year is exciting. 토토사이트 순위

Softbank Hawks outfielder Kondo Kensuke (31) had no hit in three times at bat at a home game against the Yakult Swallows in Fukuoka on Sunday. He went out as a designated hitter with five outs and two walks to get on base. He garnered an RBI single by allowing a walk with the bases loaded with one out in the bottom of the first inning.

He had 71 hits in 208 at-bats for a batting average of 341 percent as of Tuesday. He had seven hits in 14 at-bats in the previous five games. He continues to run relentlessly this year.

He joined Softbank in 2023 and has shown stellar performance since his first year. He hit .333-149 with 26 homeruns and 87 RBIs last year. He ranked first in homers, RBIs and on-base percentage (0.431). He joined the Pacific League’s “Best Nine” and received a Golden Glove.

Kondo started as a catcher for the Nippon Ham team and moved to FA (free agent) in the winter of 2022. As a center hitter for the Nippon Ham team, he fought for recruitment. He posted a batting average of .300 and three-digit hits five times for the Nippon Ham team, and ranked first in on-base percentage twice.

Kondo’s annual salary this year is 550 million yen (about 4.81 billion won). He is ranked fourth in the Japanese pro baseball league this year, following Hayato Sakamoto (35, Yomiuri Giants), Munetaka Murakami (25, Yakult Swallows, 600 million yen) and Yuki Yanagita (36, Softbank, 570 million yen). Kondo signed a long-term contract with a contract of six years to four billion yen from 2023.

Kondo, who elevated his slugging capability through excellent contact, is at the top of various batting rankings. He ranks first in OPS (on-base plus slugging), tied for second in homers, fourth in RBIs, and sixth in on-base percentage. At a game against the Chunichi Dragons held at Escon Field in Kitahiroshima, Hokkaido on Sunday, Nippon-Ham catcher Damiya YooA (24) made it to the fifth in the lineup.

He had no hit in four times at bat. He hit a double play in the bottom of the first inning, and struck out swinging and striking out in the fourth and sixth innings. At the fourth batter’s box in the seventh inning, he grounded out to the first base.

He had two hits on the previous day, before taking his breath away. Damiya hit the final hit in the first inning at a game against the Chunichi Dragons on Wednesday. He is strong in chances. He has a batting average of 452 percent (19 hits in 42 times at bat). This is unique among batters who have met the standard number of at-bats. Kondo has runners in the scoring position and is recording 341 percent (19 hits in 58 times at-bats).

He was a professional in his sixth year as a member of the team in 2019. He had not been able to show his presence for five years until last year. He played mostly in the second division league. He played in 30 games in the first division for five seasons, with two homers, 13 hits and nine RBIs.

This year, he started in the first division. He started the opening game with the Chiba Lotte Marines as a catcher. He had two hits on the first day of this season.

He has maintained a consistent good trend, filling up the number of hits required by the government, and ranking No. 1 in batting average. He is competing with Kondo, who is fiercely competing with him.

He recorded 55 hits in 164 times at bat through Sunday. He fell from 344 to .355 on the previous day. He is six ri shy of Kondo, the No. 1 player. With strong shoulders and fast feet, Damiya is reinvigorating the batters.

In the Interleague, Damiya posted a batting average of 37 percent (ranking fourth) and Kondo (ranked fifth) posted a batting average of 304 percent. On Sunday, Softbank and Nippon Ham won against Central League teams. They had two wins and one loss, and finished three consecutive games with a winning series.

It was a scene that could have been misunderstood as the two seniors bullying their juniors if someone who didn’t know exactly the situation at the time, but both Son Heung-min and Kim Jin-soo, who were joking, and Seol Young-woo, who were being beaten, looked happy.

South Korea’s national soccer team won 3-1 in the match between South Korea and Bahrain at the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup Group E held at the Jasim bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar on the 15th (local time). The second match against Jordan on the 20th was 2-1 until the end of the second half, but Hwang In-beom’s shot hit Jordan Al-Rab’s foot and led to an own goal in the extra time of the second half, and the South Korean national soccer team escaped from the crisis of defeat.

“The training is repeated every day.” Captain Son Heung-min instantly created an atmosphere that could have become loose. When the training begins, he walks on the ground with more serious expressions than anyone else. Before the training, he looked playful and was a completely different captain.

Son Heung-min’s next target, full of mischief, was Seol Young-woo. This time, he joined Kim Jin-soo and approached his junior Seol Young-woo. Seol Young-woo, who was preparing for the training without knowing why, was surprised when he made eye contact with captain Son Heung-min. 토토사이트 순위

It was too late to run away, and Son Heung-min hung a headlock on Seol Young-woo. Kim Jin-soo joined and continued the prank. With the love of his seniors, Seol smiled brightly and enjoyed the prank.

Seol Young-woo smiled once again at Son Heung-min’s affectionate headlock and touch of love. His love for his juniors also captured Son’s extraordinary image in a video.

Klinsmann wanted to advance to the round of 16 best teams with three undefeated matches in the group stage and the No. 1 ranking in Group E. He respects the Malaysian position of Kim Pan-gon, but hopes to garner three points in the final match.

The South Korean national team, led by head coach Jurgen Klinsmann, will play the final Group E match of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup against Malaysia at 8:30 p.m. on the 25th (Korea Standard Time) at Al Janov Stadium in Qatar.

Korea is aiming for its first championship in 64 years with its best record. It has top-class Premier League strikers Son Heung-min and Hwang Hee-chan, and has Lee Kang-in who plays with Kylian Mbappe and others in Paris Saint-Germain. Kim Min-jae, who transferred to Bayern Munich, the rival team for the UEFA Champions League, is also guarding the core line from the back. 토토사이트 추천

Expectations were high, but the start was thinly ice. Lee Kang-in scored multiple goals in the first group match against Bahrain, and allowed consecutive goals after the first goal in the second group match against Jordan, only one point. Some pointed out that even with all-time players, there was no particular team color.

For now, Korea should consider a single-game approach after passing the group stage. Depending on the results of Japan-Indonesia, Korea can advance to the round of 16 teams early on, but it will take a long time for Korea to compete in Group E rankings.

“Group E is a mixed match. We don’t know how we will finish our ranking. We have to do our best to win points and get good results,” Klinsmann told a pre-official press conference at the main media center in Doha, Qatar on Wednesday. “We expect a difficult match, but we will conclude our group stage with good results.”

There was a question from the Malaysian media. “Many media outlets have told me that they want me to avoid meeting Japan and Saudi Arabia early. Is it true?” Klinsmann said. “No, there is no team that I want to avoid. We are watching a game right before our eyes. The most important thing is the match against Malaysia. They understood that the Malaysian team’s performance is quite good. The next opponent does not matter. I will beat the match against Malaysia and show that it is the team that will advance to the round of 16 teams as No. 1 in Group E. There is no easy team in the Asian Cup. I will respect Malaysia and run for victory only.”

Another foreign media outlet asked, “The Korean team had high expectations, but its performance was not good during the two group matches.” Klinsmann said, “The performance is improving. As you play, your performance will improve and you will meet expectations. There are many areas that need to be improved and revised. This is positive. We need to show our team’s progress and growth through the competition. We will prepare well to meet expectations.”

Captain Son Heung-min scored a penalty kick in the match against Jordan. The team has great influence over the entire team, but has no field goal. Foreign media considered Son not to be in the best condition 100 percent at the upcoming match. “It is natural that he is checked on the pitch,” Klinsmann said. “As he is Son, he is checked. We will continue to see two or three players surround and put pressure on him. Any team has players like Son. We know how to solve the problem.”

The Malaysian national team is led by Kim Pan-gon. Kim is well aware of Korean soccer as he served as vice chairman of the Korea Football Association through the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. When asked about the Malaysian national team led by Kim Pan-gon, Kim said, “Malaysia showed incomparable improvement in the first and second rounds. It was a pity that the team lost the match at the 94th minute in the second round. Kim must be well aware of the Korean players. But what matters is how we prepare and show the best performance.”

The Korean national team showed cracks in its left defense. Lee Ki-je has been in individual training due to an injury, and Kim Jin-soo has just returned to team training. Manager Klinsmann’s concerns could deepen. However, he said with a smile, “There will be changes of course,” and added, “I will be able to check at the stadium.”

Toronto Blue Jays Japanese left-handed fireballer Yusei Kikuchi (33) earned a valuable start in Game 7 of the best-of-seven series.

Kikuchi started the Blue Jays’ 2024 Major League Baseball regular season opener against the Baltimore Orioles at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on Sunday (July 7) and pitched six innings, allowing one run on four hits (one home run) with one walk and six strikeouts. Kikuchi picked up his third win of the season (5-2) in Toronto’s 6-5 victory. He lowered his season ERA from 3.66 to 3.48.

It was his first start in 45 days. Kikuchi hasn’t won in seven games since picking up his second win of the season on April 23 against the Kansas City Royals (two runs in six innings). In three of those seven games, he was unable to get the win after posting a quality start, including a loss on May 11 against the Minnesota Twins after allowing two runs in eight innings.

Kikuchi was in need of a rebound, having allowed five or more runs in his last two starts (five runs in three innings and five runs in 5 1/3 innings). Facing a Baltimore offense that leads all major league teams in home runs (95) and has the third-best OPS (.753), Kikuchi was in trouble in the first inning. He struck out Jordan Westberg and Adley Rutchman on consecutive wild pitches, but gave up a single to Ryan Mountcastle and a double to Gunner Henderson to put runners on second and third. Kikuchi induced a fly ball to left field off Anthony Santander to end a tough first inning.

The second inning settled down. After striking out leadoff hitter Austin Hayes on a wild pitch, Kikuchi gave up a single to Connor Nobby. But he induced a grounder to third base against James McCann to end the inning.

After Kikuchi worked around a strikeout and two groundouts in the top of the third, the Toronto offense answered in the bottom of the 스포츠토토 inning. Vladimir Guerrero gave the Jays a 3-0 lead with a leadoff three-run homer to center field with runners on first and second.

With run support, Kikuchi walked Henderson with one out in the top of the fourth, but got Santander to fly out to center field and Hayes to strike out to end the inning. In the bottom of the fourth, Toronto extended its lead to 4-0 on an RBI single by Isaiah Kainer-Palepa.

After getting out of the fifth inning with three ground balls, Kikuchi gave up his first run in the sixth. Facing Lurchman with one out and a 2-0 count, Kikuchi hit a three-pitch curveball up the middle for a solo home run over the left field wall. Kikuchi didn’t falter after the homer, retiring Mountcastle on a straight fly to right field and Henderson on a swinging strikeout to end the inning.

Toronto extended its lead to 6-1 in the bottom of the sixth on Ernie Clement’s RBI double. Baltimore scored two runs in the eighth and ninth innings to cut the deficit to 6-5, but Kikuchi was able to hold on for the win.

Kikuchi threw 89 pitches (60 for strikes) on the day, with his fastball reaching 98.1 miles per hour (157.9 km/h). “He had a good curveball that stayed out of the strike zone, and he had good fastball velocity,” Toronto manager John Schneider said. Baltimore 카지노사이트 추천 manager Brandon Hyde, who also struggled against Kikuchi, said, “That was the best pitch I’ve seen him throw. His changeup, his fastball, his changeup, they were all sharp.”

Kikuchi added six more strikeouts to surpass 700 strikeouts in his major league career (702). He is eighth all-time among Japanese big leaguers, joining Darvish Yu (1,982), Hideo Nomo (1,918), Masahiro Tanaka (991), Hiroki Kuroda (986), Kenta Maeda (981), Daisuke Matsuzaka (720), and Hisashi Iwakuma (714). Kikuchi also surpassed 1,600 career strikeouts in Japan (1,605), adding to his 903 strikeouts in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB).

Kikuchi, who won his third game of the season in seven starts, said, “I had good command of my pitches, a good fastball, and I was able to work favorable counts. My changeup was very effective,” he said. “I had the mindset that I had to win today,” he said of his first win in 45 days.

This season’s NBA playoffs have been characterized by more compatibility than ever before. The Denver Nuggets are a powerhouse team led by point center Nikola Jokic (29‧211cm). Despite being criticized for his weaknesses in athleticism and mobility, Jokic has dominated the league by maximizing other aspects of his game, such as his size, power, fundamentals, versatility, and shooting touch.

His vision, BQ, and passing ability have been compared to some of the best pure point guards of all time. With Jokic as the control tower, Jamal Murray (6-foot-9), Aaron Gordon (6-foot-9), and Michael Porter Jr. (6-foot-8) are able to synergize with each other through their high volume of activity. This type of basketball helped Denver win the championship last season.

This season, teams have been chanting “Takedown Denver”. In a way, Denver’s weaknesses are obvious. They just need to stop Jokic. Of course, he has such deceptive stats that it’s almost impossible to stop him properly at the moment, but even a little bit of harassment can have an impact on Denver’s performance.

One team that has accomplished such a difficult mission is the Minnesota Timberwolves. They have the best defensive big man in the league, Rudy Gobert (32-216 cm), plus the “Twin Towers” of Karl-Anthony Towns (28‧211 cm) with Taliban-level outside shooting ability, plus reigning Sixth Man of the Year Nazr Reed (25-206 cm).

Yokichi was still a force to be reckoned with, but was eventually forced to concede a close game seven. With a backup big man to take some of the physical strain, it might have worked, but unfortunately, Denver was too cavalier about reinforcements for the new season. Jokic wasn’t a robot.

The idea of having Anthony Edwards (23‧193cm) lead the scoring up front with quality and quantity of perimeter players didn’t work for the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals. Having knocked off perennial favorites Denver, Minnesota was in a position to make a run at the Finals, but alas, the odds were stacked against them.

Like Denver, Dallas is a team that relies heavily on its ace in Luka Doncic (25‧201cm). But Doncic is a guard. With Jokic, they can get to the rim and 토토사이트 harass him, but they don’t have the resources up front. Add to that the one-two punch of Kyrie Irving (32‧187.2cm), their best two-option, and the pressure is on JUCO Edwards.

If they lost the backcourt battle, they could have tried to attack the post with their deep perimeter resources, but that didn’t work. Minnesota’s bigs were solid defensively, but they didn’t have the firepower to overwhelm their opponents. Derrick Lively II (20‧216cm), Daniel Gafford (26‧208cm), and others were more than enough to handle it. In the end, the game came down to the backcourt, where Doncic and Irving were so dominant that the Wolves bowed out.

The Wolves have a lot of momentum after sweeping Minnesota, but the Boston Celtics will have their work cut out for them in the Finals. First, they drank the bitter pill of defeat in Game 1, 107-89. It wasn’t just a one-game loss. Boston’s stifling defense has rendered many of Dallas’ weapons useless.

Dallas’ most potent offensive pattern is to create mismatches with its one-two punch. As one of the league’s most productive offensive players, Doncic is extremely difficult to stop one-on-one, which is why most teams that face Dallas double- and even triple-team him. Combine that with Irving, who is an unenviable one-option playmaker, and you’ve got a recipe for cracks in opposing defenses.

Dallas’ winning formula has been to have Doncic and Irving draw defenses inside and out, and then slip the ball into the openings for easy baskets by their teammates. But it’s not working against Boston. The Celtics are also known for their wings in Jayson Tatum (26‧203cm) and Jaylen Brown (28‧196.2cm), but their entire top five is actually a threat.

Jerry Holloway (34-119) and Derrick White (29-193) are also capable of taking over games on any given night, as is Kristaps Porzingis (29-221), who returns from the Finals. That’s why the term “big five” doesn’t sound like an exaggeration. Add to that the strength of their backups, such as Sam Hauser (27‧201cm) and Al Horford (38‧206cm). The scariest part is that they are all offense and defense.

In Game 1, Boston tried to defend Doncic primarily one-on-one, and it worked. Their combined size and defense prevented them from opening up holes when switches were made, which prevented any passes from Doncic. This is evidenced by the fact that Doncic only had one assist.

The one assist is Doncic’s fewest in the playoffs. He’s averaged 8.8 assists in his last three playoff series, so you can see how badly this game went. To make matters worse, Irving, perhaps distracted by the boos from the Boston fans, also struggled, sealing the fate of Dallas’ one-two punch.

Of course, the Finals have just begun. Boston has looked flawless on offense, but there are no guarantees that their stingy defense and high field goal percentage will continue throughout the series. Dallas will do everything in their power to find a way to break the current trend and crack it somehow. To do so, they’ll need more explosions from Doncic and Irving, among others.

The Doosan Bears of the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) enjoyed a thrilling come-from-behind victory in front of a sold-out crowd.

The Doosan Bears won the 10th game of the 2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League against the Kia Tigers on Sunday at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul, South Korea, with a 6-5 walk-off win in 11 innings.

Doosan swept the three-game series and improved to 36-2-27 on the season with a four-game winning streak. They also snapped a three-game losing streak at home.

Kia, on the other hand, lost the top spot to LG Twins, who beat KT Wiz in Suwon in the same time frame. 36 wins, 1 draw and 25 losses on the season. It’s been 59 days since April 9 since KIA dropped to second place.

For the road trip, Kia fielded the following starting lineup: Park Chan-ho (shortstop), Kim Do-young (third base), Na Sung-beom (right field), Choi Hyung-woo (designated hitter), Socrates Brito (left field), Kim Sun-bin (second base), Seo Gun-chang (first base), Kim Tae-gun (catcher), and Choi Won-joon (center field).

The lineup changed drastically when Lee Woo-sung, who was born on July 7, took a one-day maternity leave. Lee Bum-ho said, “(Lee) Woo-sung could have taken two days off, but he only took one. It’s something to celebrate, and I hope he can relax and take a day off while watching his baby,” Lee said, adding, ”I inserted Seo Gun-chang when Woo Sung-ki was out. It was a matchup of aces, so we expected a low-scoring game, but we tried to put together a lineup that would dig into the gaps.”

The home team, Doosan, responded with Jung Soo-bin (center fielder), Heo Kyung-min (third baseman), Henry Ramos (right fielder), Yang Ji (catcher), Kim Jae-hwan (designated hitter), Yang Seok-hwan (first baseman), Kim Jae-ho (shortstop), Cho Su-hyung (left fielder), and Lee Yoo-chan (second baseman).

Regarding the exclusion of starting second baseman Kang Seung-ho, Lee said, “He’s not as explosive as he was at the beginning of the season. I’ve been thinking about different ways to save him, but for now, I’m going to give him time to replenish his physical strength.”

It was all Doosan from the start. With the bases loaded in the bottom of the second inning, captain Yang Seok-hwan led off the inning with a solo home run. He took a high sinker (149 kilometers) outside the first pitch from Kia starter James Nail, who leads the 바카라사이트 league in ERA, for a three-run home run to left field (125 meters). It was his 14th home run of the season, his first in five games since hitting one against the LG Twins in Jamsil on April 1.

Kia countered in the top of the third inning. Two batters later, Kim Do-young and Na Sung-beom singled to put runners on first and third, and Choi Hyung-woo hit a tying RBI single to center field. Socrates followed with a straight ball to load the bases, and Kim Sun-bin followed with an infield single. Kim took advantage of shortstop Kim Jae-ho’s slow throw to first base.

Doosan regained the lead in the bottom of the third inning when leadoff hitter Jung Soo-bin singled to center field. Ramos then reached on a throwing error by first baseman Seo Gun-chang to put runners on first and second, and Yang tied the game at 2-2 with an RBI single to left.

Doosan responded in the bottom of the fourth inning. The leadoff hitter faced a 0B-2S unfavorable count against Nail, but took a five-pitch slider (131 mph) to center field for a solo home run (130 mph). It was Yang’s 17th home run of the season, 1187th of his career, and the fifth in a row in the KBO.

Kia responded to the home run with a home run of their own. In the top of the fifth inning, Kim Do-young led off with a home run to tie the game again. After watching Doosan starter Raul Alcantara’s first pitch, Kim took the second pitch, a high fastball (150 kilometers), for a 125-meter home run to left-center field. It was the second straight day he hit a home run, after hitting one against the Gwangju Lotte Giants the day before, and his 16th home run of the season.

The home run was the first of his career and second of the KBO season against his former club. KT Wiz foreign-born hitter Mel Rojas Jr. hit his first home run of the season against a former team on March 31 against KIA in Gwangju.

Kia didn’t stop there. Choi Hyung-woo calmly 바카라사이트 추천 drew a walk after an eight-pitch at-bat, and Socrates followed with an exquisite RBI triple that just cleared the first baseman’s height.

In the top of the seventh, leadoff hitters Kim Do-young and Na Sung-beom singled to put runners on first and third with no outs. Choi Hyung-woo struck out swinging after a nine-pitch at-bat against Choi Ji-kang, but Socrates extended the lead with an infield single. However, an error by shortstop Kim Jae-ho and a wild pitch put runners on second and third, but Seo struck out swinging.
