KIA Tigers coach Kim Jong-guk got angry during the game.

KIA lost 1-6 in the second game of the season against the 2023 KBO League Kiwoom Heroes held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 15th. After losing 2-9 the previous day (14th), KIA, which gave up to the game today, was in danger of losing a sweep in Gocheok 3 consecutive weekends.

During the game, there was even a scene where coach Kim strongly protested. The controversial scene occurred in episode 3.

KIA was dragged 1-5 at the end of the 3rd inning. Left-hander rookie Yoon Young-chul, who scored five runs in the bottom of the first inning, sent out catcher Kim Dong-heon, a freshman from Chungam High School, with a hit ball after one out in the bottom of the third inning.스포츠토토

Yoon Young-chul’s 137km/h fastball headed toward Kim Dong-heon’s body. Yoon Young-cheol’s pitch hit Kim Dong-heon’s elbow.

At this time, umpire Ham Ji-woong made a decision of four balls after discussing with the referees. Then coach Kim kicked out the dugout and came out.

Director Kim’s fierce protest continued. Director Kim’s complaint was that ‘Kim Dong-heon deliberately put his elbow inside’. But the verdict was not overturned.

It didn’t lead to a goal, but it was a questionable situation. After the bottom of the 3rd inning, coach Kim once again came out to the ground and protested to umpire Ham Ji-woong over the decision on the four ball. While the game was going normally, coach Kim argued strongly and went back to the dugout.
