D.H. Lee Leads Seoul, Korea to 2018 P13WS Title

Asia-Pacific Zone Representatives Seoul, Korea becomes back-to-back Pony-13 World Series Champions, after defeating the West Zone’s Champion Placentia, California 9-0 at York Field in Whittier, California. The game was highlighted by Seoul’s combined no-hitter by pitchers, D.H. Lee and J.W. Moon. Lee did the bulk of the work, going 6.1 innings, striking out nine and walking just one batter.

 

Seoul’s leadoff man J.W. Moon got on base after getting hit by a pitch to start off the game. A few batters later, S.J. Park launched a bomb to right field and brought in Moon for the early 1-0 lead after the first inning.

Moon came up to bat in the fourth with D.H. Lee on third base. Moon hit a ball the Placentia shortstop couldn’t control, and D.H. Lee crossed home to give Seoul a 2-0 lead after four innings.

S.J. Park kept the scoring going for Seoul in the fifth inning with a double to right field. Park’s double allowed J.W. Lee and D.C. Kim to score the third and fourth runs for Seoul.

 

D.H. Lee was dealing on the mound for Seoul. D.H. Lee was perfect in the ballgame until he walked a batter in the top of the sixth inning.  Placentia was unable to do anything with the runner, though and left him stranded on first.

When Seoul came up to bat in the sixth, leadoff man J.H. Kim was able to get on base with T.K. Yeo coming to bat.

Yeo smacked a ball out of the Placentia right fielder and rounded the bases for a triple that brought J.H. Kim home to score. Two more runs came across to score a couple batters later, making it a 7-0 lead for Seoul.

Seoul tallied a total of five runs in the sixth inning and put the game out of reach for Placentia.

S.J. Park led the way with his bat for Seoul. He hit 2-for-4, driving in two runners and scoring twice in the championship game win.

 

Seoul’s 9-0 win earned them their second-straight Pony-13 World Series title at York Field in Whittier. Following the game, D.H. Lee was awarded the Easton ERA Award, after finishing the tournament with a 0.00 ERA on 8.1 innings pitched. J.W.
