# Samsung for the third consecutive time, No. 2 Koo Ja-wook-4 against KIA on the 9th
Samsung, which has lost three consecutive games since the match against Lotte in Daegu on the 3rd, unveiled its home batting order against the KIA Tigers at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 9th.

What stands out most is Koo Ja-wook's deployment as No. 2 and Kim Young-woong's first start as No. 4 hitter. Samsung formed its starting lineup with center fielder Kim Ji-chan, designated hitter Koo Ja-wook, David McKinnon, third baseman Kim Young-woong, shortstop Lee Jae-hyun, second baseman Ryu Ji-hyuk, left fielder Kim Heon-gon, catcher Lee Byung-hun, and right fielder Kim Hyun-joon.
Coach Park Jin-man told reporters ahead of a home game against KIA on Tuesday, "The batting pace has declined these days, and the batting order has changed. I raised the batting order overall."
On Kim Young-woong's appointment as No. 4, coach Park Jin-man said. "He is playing a good role as a cleanup hitter. He is producing both on-base hits and long hits when the team needs him. He is a young player, but he will display his capabilities as a cleanup hitter."
Kim Young-woong, who has taken the helm of No. 4 for the first time since his debut, said, "I felt good to see the lineup. However, rather than placing special importance on the batting order, I just want to think that the batting order has been pulled one more time than yesterday." "I think there will be many moments when I take the batter's box during the chance, but I don't feel pressured. I had a good batting sense today. I have always been confident, and I am confident today as well," he added.
"Blue blood ace" Won Tae-in, who started the match against KIA on Tuesday, showed off his perfect pitching by allowing two hits, three walks and five strikeouts in six innings. In other words, Won Tae-in was the starter. Samsung lost 2-4 after a close game in the 12th inning of overtime.
Coach Park Jin-man said, "Won Tae-in showed the best pitching. It was the best pitch ever. I had to win, but it was a disappointing game."
15,421 spectators visited the stadium on Sunday. "We have a low win rate at home, but young players seem to be under psychological pressure. If we gain experience, we will show good performance later on," coach Park Jin-man said.
