For Moon Jung-bin (22, LG Twins), the 23rd will remain an unforgettable day.
Moon Jung-bin, who came out as a pinch hitter in Hong Chang-ki's at-bat in the bottom of the eighth inning with an 8-1 lead, hit Lotte pitcher Koo Seung-min's fork ball in 2B1S and crossed the left fence.
Moon Jung-bin, who was drafted by LG in the second round of the 2022 Rookie Draft (ranked 77th overall), was named in the first team for the first time as he was included in this year's opening entry.
After spending his first year without making his first debut in the first division, he appeared in 28 Futures League games last year after returning from military service and showed off his 'fire bat' with a batting average of 489 and six home runs.
He finished his debut at-bat with a strikeout against Lotte on the 22nd, and was able to mark his first hit with a home run.
After the game, Moon Jung-bin said "I thought I would move on as soon as I got hit. But it was my first time running, so I was a bit puzzled", he also expressed his feelings. In addition, he "I didn't know if I would go out today, but I was preparing." It's an honor to go out and get a good result and be able to help the team win a little bit. It was my first at-bat, so I was so nervous as if my legs weren't my legs. It was a good blow thanks to the words of the seniors and older brothers, 'Don't think about the results and show me you can do it.' Thank you very much."
As much as he performed well, he was also listed in the starting lineup. Moon Jung-bin will start the game against Hanwha in Jamsil on the 25th as the seventh designated hitter.

On this day, LG organized the starting lineup in the order of Hong Chang-ki (right wing), Song Chan-ui (left wing), Austin Dean (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), Moon Jung-bin (designated hitter), Park Hae-min (middle fielder), and Koo Bon-hyuk (second baseman).
The lineup is without Kim Hyun-soo and Moon Sung-joo. Manager Yeom said, `Kim Hyun-soo will play at an important moment with Moon Sung-joo. Now I'm trying to make a substitute agent like that. Leaving the starting line-up (the main game) out, the main players are looking to play a decisive role in the second half. In the meantime, young players will be given a chance. Young players are more likely to play when they are good. If you go out when you're in a bad situation, you're less likely to hit than the main players.
