KIA Tigers manager Lee Beom-ho apologized for giving up 30 runs, the most in KBO League history. On July 31, KIA gave up 28 hits, 13 walks, and 1 walk in the 2024 pro baseball game against Doosan Bears at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field, giving up 30 runs. They lost 6-30.

It was the first time since the KBO League was launched in 1982 that 30 runs were given up in a single game. It was more than the previous record of 27 runs. Starting pitcher Kim Do-hyun collapsed in the 3rd inning after failing to pitch long innings, and the bullpen pitchers who followed showed poor pitching, resulting in a humiliating 30 runs. They also gave up a new record for the most runs (24).

It was a crushing defeat that prevented the commander from properly taking control of the night.

The manager apologized on the 1st, saying, “I gave up a lot of points yesterday. I’m sorry to the fans for showing such a disappointing performance,” ahead of the 3rd game of the midweek series against Doosan.

He continued, “We’ve had a lot of difficult games recently. There was a situation where the starting pitchers in April and May were replaced in the 2nd and 3rd innings, and the middle pitchers are having a hard time right now. 안전놀이터 When they go up, they should be cut off at around 15 to 20 pitches, but the number of pitches has increased. The weather is getting warmer, and they look tired. I’m worried.” He sighed.

He continued, “It’s a game that’s already over. It won’t help to be obsessed with it. Having a separate meeting and talking about what to focus on won’t help the tired players. They know better and are angry. The players must have felt it a lot. Even if they do well, they felt that any team will give up the game if they let their guard down.”
