Seo Ho-cheol's first postseason hit is a grand slam home run... Kim Hyung-jun is the youngest WC home run

Seo Ho-cheol (27, NC Dinos) hit the first bases-loaded home run in the KBO League wild card game.

It was even more thrilling because it was a grand slam that turned the game around. 카지노사이트킹

Seo Ho-cheol hit a 149 km/h fastball on the 3rd pitch of Doosan Bears starting pitcher Kwak Bin with the bases loaded and 2 outs in the bottom of the 4th inning when the 1st game of the professional baseball 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO postseason wild card decision held at Changwon NC Park in Gyeongsangnam-do on the 19th was down 0-3.

I went over the left wall.

Seo Ho-cheol, who played his first postseason game on this day, scored his first hit with a grand slam.

Seo Ho-cheol is the first to hit a grand slam home run in the wild card game introduced by the KBO in 2015.

Even in the past postseason, grand slam home runs have occurred only 17 times, including Seo Ho-cheol's on this day.

It was a home run that came at a time when NC had lost the lead by conceding runs in the first to third innings, so it had greater meaning.

The next batter, Kim Hyeong-jun, also hit Kwak Bin's 137 km/h slider and hit a left-handed solo shot.

The home run by consecutive batters is also the first wild card game in history.

Looking at the postseason as a whole, Seo Ho-cheol and Kim Hyeong-jun hit their 27th consecutive home run together.

Kim Hyeong-jun hit the mark at the age of 23 years, 11 months, and 17 days, shortening Jeong Jin-gi's record of being the youngest wild card home run hit in the NC game in 2017 when he was with the SK Wyverns (24 years, 11 months, 25 days) by nearly a year.

Doosan starting pitcher Kwak Bin, who hit a grand slam by Seo Ho-cheol and a solo home run by Kim Hyeong-jun, gave up a walk to Do Tae-hoon and came down from the mound with his head down.

Kwak Bin's performance on this day was 4 hits and 5 runs in 3⅔ innings.

Doosan's native ace Kwak Bin hit a left-field hit from the first batter, Son A-seop, in the bottom of the first inning, and then succeeded in hitting 10 batters in a row, cruising to 1 out in the 4th inning.

However, he allowed a walk to Park Geon-woo and a walk to Kim Joo-won, who was on first and second base with two outs after Kwon Hee-dong hit a hit to right-center, causing a crisis with the bases loaded with two outs.

As Seo Ho-cheol and Kim Hyeong-jun hit home runs in succession, Kwak Bin's dream of achieving his first postseason victory was dashed.

Kwak Bin made a total of four starts in the 2021 wild card game, semi-playoffs, and Korean Series, losing two without a win and posting an ERA of 4.40.

Even in this year's wild card game, where he took the mound with the title of 'local ace', Kwak Bin failed to secure a victory and allowed his first and second individual home runs in the postseason.

On this day, Doosan was on the verge of leaving the stage this fall as Kwak Bin, whom he had trusted, gave up without even completing the 4th inning.
