Lead-off to solve the problem?

Attack in the bottom of the 7th inning with a score of 2-3. Ryu Ji-hyeok chose a walk, and after a one-out, Kim Ho-ryeong hit a right-handed hit to take the 1st and 3rd base chances. Kim Do-hyeong retired with a bum hit in all three at-bats.
When the opportunity came, his face changed. He did not back down from the confrontation with Doosan Pilseung Man Park Chi-guk. In the middle of a ball count of 1-2, when a full ball came into his body, he reflexively attached his right elbow to his side and made a swing.
Although the batted ball missed, it was over the height of the shortstop, and third base runner Kim Gyu-seong (runner) lightly stepped on the groove to tie the score. It was a scene that stood out for his responsiveness at the plate. 스포츠토토
