Drew Luchinski (32, NC Dinos) and Raul Alcantara (28, Doosan Bears) meet again on the stage of the Korean Series (KS) after a week.
Luchinski climbs the mound with the aim of taking down the KS, and Alcantara in the seventh KS game.
Luchinski and Alcantara will start in the sixth round of the KBO 2020 KS postseason game that will take place at Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro-gu, Seoul on the 24th.
The two, who opened the KS stage in 2020 with the selection of the first game on the 17th, will celebrate a ‘second leg’ before the sixth game, one day later than expected.
In Game 4 on the 21st, Luczynski took a 2-0 lead in the seventh inning, blocking two no-hit innings and saving himself.
NC coach Lee Dong-wook chose Luchinski, who threw 39 balls on the 21st, as the starting game for the sixth round.
Doosan’s coach, Kim Tae-hyung, chose Chris Flexen, who played tough in the postseason every day in the postseason over Alcantara, the multiple regular-season winner, as the starter for the fifth leg, and delayed the Alcantara appearance for a day.
The date was delayed a day, but the confrontation did not change.
There are only two pitchers, Luchinski and Alcantara, who have won 20 regular season and postseason victories in Korean professional baseball this year.
Alcantara ranked number one in the regular season with 20 wins (2 losses).
However, he did not score a win in all three postseason games.
Luchinski, who had been pushed one step into the multi-win competition with 19 wins (5 losses) in the regular season, won 20 wins by winning the first game in the KS on the 17th.
In the regular season multi-win competition, Alcantara had 6 wins in October and a “reverse win”, but at KS, Luchinski laughed first.
In the first KS game, Luchinski blocked 5 1/2 innings with 5 hits and 3 runs (1 ERA).
The beast made two mistakes, but they did not collapse.
Alcantara, meanwhile, had 7 hits in 5 innings and scored 4 runs.
In the fourth inning, after allowing two balls to enter the body and inviting a crisis, the scene where Aaron Altair hit a 3-point home run was painful.
It was unfortunate for Doosan and Alcantara that Na Sung-beom, who completely blocked Na Seong-beom, who had been completely blocked in the regular season with no hits in 9 at-bats and 3 hits in 3 at-bats.
In Game 1, Alcantara allowed hits to Sung-beom Na (3 hits in 3 at-bats), Min-woo Park (1 hit in 3 at-bats), Euiji Yang (1 hit in 3 at-bats), Altair (1 hit in 2 at-bats) and Jin-seong Kang (1 hit in 2 at-bats). did.
Alcantara attended Choi Dong-won’s award ceremony on the 19th and said, “I was disappointed with the results of the first game, but as soon as the game ended, I trained with a bright expression.
The day I start, I’ll do my best to win the team and eventually win the KS. “
Luchinski, who has already garnered 1 win and 1 save in KS, took on the heavy lifting once again.
In the first game, Luchinski was beaten by Gyeong-min Heo (2 hits in 2 at-bats), Se-hyuk Park (1 hit in 2 at-bats), Sue Bin (1 hit in 2 at-bats) and Fernandes (1 hit in 2 at-bats).
In the fourth game, which ended with a long inning, all 9 batters were hit (1 error).
If Luchinsky wins in Game 6, he will quickly rise to the top of the best player in the series (MVP).
In the regular season, Alcantara made four appearances against NC and played with a 2.63 ERA.
Luchinsky’s performance against Doosan in the regular season was 3.50 with an average ERA of 1 win 1 loss in 3 games.
In the regular season, Alcantara had the upper hand, but KS’s result was different.
The results of the sixth game on the 24th, which will meet after a week, are also unpredictable.
