LG beat KT 6-2 in Game 5 of the Korean Series best-of-seven series on the 13th and won the title with 4 wins and 1 loss in the series. It was the third time in his career that he rose to the top following 1990 and 1994. 토토사이트링크 Coach Lee, who was delighted with the team, made unforgettable memories by taking commemorative photos with his family after the award ceremony. His son-in-law Ko Woo-suk, who became a new family member in January, was also with him.
Ko Woo-suk, who ranked No. 1 in the KBO League save category last year, signed a hundred-year marriage with Lee Ga-hyun, coach Lee\'s daughter and sister of his friend Lee Jung-hoo 25, Kiwoom Heroes. And the father-in-law and son-in-law led LG to the top a year after becoming a baseball family.
This is the fifth Korean Series victory for coach Lee, who left a clear mark with his outstanding skills during his active career. In his first professional debut seasons, he led Haitai to the Korean Series title in 1993, 1996, and 1997, and helped KIA rise to the top in 2009. Coach Lee, who was strong in big games, won the Korean Series MVP twice in 1993 and 1997.
It\'s his first win as a leader. Coach Lee, who has been a leader since 2013 after retiring from active duty, was not able to wear the championship ring until more than 10 years later. Coach Lee said, I think I have a special feeling because it\'s my first win as a leader, adding, I only played a role in supporting the players. I just feel good to win, he said.
I was able to win because the players did well, not the coach or coach. I know well because I\'ve been through it when I was active, but the players have the biggest role to win. It\'s possible because I\'ve implemented the instructions of the coach and coach well, he said, adding, "I want to give all the credit to the players.
Coach Lee\'s son-in-law and closer Ko Woo-suk were also in the LG squad. Ko Woo-suk, who is in charge of the back door, went back and forth between Heaven and Hell in this Korean Series, but he pitched in the ninth inning in Game 5 and neatly blocked the last inning to confirm his victory. Coach Lee said, I think the late Woo-suk finished well though he had ups and downs in the Korean Series, so I think the hard part will go away. Everything is fine now, he said, encouraging his son-in-law.
Wooseok suffered a lot from injury at the beginning of the season. Still, I would have received a big gift by winning the championship at the end like this, he said. I hope I will prepare better next year and finish another season well without getting hurt.
Coach Lee spared no advice and corrected Ko Woo-suk, who could shake his mind. Ko Woo-suk said, The coach said, I\'ve never lost the Korean Series. He thanked me, saying, I\'m a person with that energy, so we\'ll win no matter what, and added, I played in a team with my father-in-law and won, and it\'s a different experience.
Coach Lee also said he was proud to wear a winning ring with his son-in-law. It\'s my first time to win with my son-in-law, and it\'s a very meaningful and special victory, he said. Lee Jung-hoo also visited the scene and watched his father and brother-in-law hold the trophy. Coach Lee said in response, It would have been better if Lee Jung-hoo had won playing in one team together, adding, I hope that such an opportunity will come in the future.
