Seoul Auto High School wins first cold game in a major competition
Ji-won Ahn of Busan High School was selected as the MVP of last year's Golden Lion, becoming the first freshman to do so.
‘Defending champion’ Busan High School has taken the first step toward winning the Golden Lion for the second time in a row.
Busan High School defeated Incheon High School 6-0 in the first round of the 78th Golden Lion National High School Baseball Tournament and Weekend League King of Kings Tournament held at Mokdong Baseball Stadium in Seoul on the 18th.
This was the first time that Busan High School defeated Incheon High School in the Golden Lion Cup since 1971, when high school baseball established the four major tournaments (Golden Lion Cup, Blue Dragon Cup, President's Cup, and Phoenix Cup).
It has been 31 years since Busan High School defeated Incheon High School in a major tournament, winning 2-1 in the 1993 Bonghwanggi quarterfinals.
Busan High School later lost three consecutive games to Incheon High School in a major tournament, but ended the losing streak on this day.
Last year's Golden Lion Most Valuable Player (MVP) Ahn Ji-won (2nd year) helped the team win by hitting a two-run home run over the left wall in the top of the fourth inning with one out and two on second base when the team was ahead 2-0.
Busan High School will play the second round of this tournament at 12 PM on the 21st against Masang High School, which they have not defeated in a head-to-head match since winning 5-4 in the second round of the 1996 Phoenix Cup.
Se-Gwang High School, attempting to win the Golden Lion for the second time in 42 years since 1982, defeated Shinil High School 8-2.
Shinil High School is the team that holds the record for the most wins in the Golden Lion (8 times), but has never recorded a win in the Golden Lion since entering the 2020s.
Se-Gwang High School's fifth hitter, third baseman Lee Jeong-jae (junior year), led the team's victory with 2 hits and 3 RBIs in 3 at-bats, including hitting the winning hit in the top of the first inning with 2 outs and 2nd and 3rd bases.
Segwang High School will play the second round at 9:30 a.m. on the 21st against Sewon High School, which passed the first round by default.
Sewon High School, located in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, is a team that has been participating in the high school baseball weekend league since this year.
In the third game in Mokdong, Seoul Automobile High School won 7-0, 7th inning, against Jemulpo High School.
In this tournament, if there are more than 7 points after the 7th inning, a cold game is declared.
Seoul Automobile High School completed a cold game by scoring two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, leading 5-0.
This game is the first time that Seoul Automobile High School, which has participated in the weekend league since 2022, recorded a cold game win in a major tournament.
This was the first time that Seoul Automobile High School won the Golden Lion Cup.
At Shinwol Baseball Stadium, Raon High School advanced to the second round with a 3-2 win over Yulgok High School Baseball Team.
The Yulgok High School baseball team converted to a club team last year and has been using the name Yulgok High Baseball Team.
Cheongwon High School, which advanced to the quarterfinals by defeating Yulgok High School in the 2022 Golden Lion Cup, defeated Daegu Buk-gu SC, which was playing for the first time in the Golden Lion Cup, 4-0 on this day.
In the previous game, Jangan High School defeated Yeongseon High School, which was playing for the first time in the Golden Lion Cup, 4-2 and advanced to the second round of the Golden Lion Cup for the first time in two years. 한국야동
