‘Hero’s Captain’ Song Sung -moon (Kiwoom Heroes) drove four home runs in three consecutive weekends. He also led the team’s first sweep (three consecutive victories) this season. Samsung Lions fell into four straight streaks.
Kiwoom won 10-7 in the home match against 2025 KBO League Samsung held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro, Seoul on the 29th. Kiwoom scored the first sweep of the season by sweeping three consecutive games with Samsung.
Australia, who joined as an alternative foreign player, started his first win with two runs in five innings and five hits and two walks and two strikeouts. In addition, one replacement player, Stone Garret, also helped win the team with five at -bats and two hits and one RBI. On the other hand, Samsung, which was fifth place before meeting Kiwoom, fell to seventh place.
Kiwoom led the early steel plate by targeting Samsung’s starting pitcher Lee Seung -hyun from the beginning. Kiwoom earned three points with a series of hits and walks, starting with the ball that fits the body of Song Sung -moon. In the second episode, Kiwoom’s leading hitter Jeon Tae -hyun walked from Samsung Lee Seung -hyun, and Lee Seung -hyun was grasped after he was out of Song Sung -moon. Samsung benches, who have no retreat, have made a quick decision. However, Kiwoom added one point to Yang Chang-seop, who changed three times, and continued his 4-0 advantage.
Samsung counterattacked four times. Lewin Diaz, the first place in the home run category, opened the door with a hit in front of the center field, and went on chasing with Jeon Byung -woo walk, Lee Jae -hyun’s timely hit, and Kang Min -ho’s sacrifice.
Kiwoom added one point four times and ran away with the three -point home run of Song Sung -moon. Song Sung -moon pulled the 145km / h fastball of Samsung Salvation Pitcher’s 145km per hour in the first and third bases, and his 14th home run was the final.
Song Sung -moon drove a total of four home runs, including bursting a cannon in every game in three consecutive games. In the first game on the 27th, the team scored a 5-4 reversal by winning two home runs in the 8th and first base, which was 3-4, and on the 28th, he became the leader of the victory (9-0), including a batting home run once or twice.
Samsung, who was aiming to escape the losing streak, made the seventh lead hitter Kim Seong -yoon and Koo Ja -wook a chance with the walk of Diaz and Ryu Ji -hyuk, and made up of four points with the hits and sacrifices of subsequent hitters. But it was powerful to turn over the already scored car.
Kiwoom operated the bullpen, including Yoon Seok -won and the 9th Ju Seung -woo, and kept the score to the end.
