Daejeon New Stadium, Hanwha Life Ballpark' To the right is a huge wall with the highest height in Korea.
It is a unique structure that is built with media glass and can see through, with a height of 8m 'monster wall'.
Five home runs were hit in the three consecutive games between Hanwha and the KIA Tigers at the new stadium last weekend. Three of them are home runs recorded by KIA Wisdom. However, none of them exceeded the Monster Wall.
The game between the Lotte Giants and the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Ball Park on the 2nd. Finally, for the first time since its opening, a hit over the 8-meter fence came out.
Unexpectedly, the hero of the home run is Lotte's Yoon Dong-hee. He is a mid- to long-distance hitter who hit 14 home runs last year, but he is not a typical big shot like Wisdom.
However, he is strong in fastballs and has a beastly sense of playing ball. Yoon Dong-hee appeared as the leadoff hitter in the top of the second inning and pushed Hanwha starter Moon Dong-ju's 150km fastball to the right fence with a ball count of 3B1S.

However, in addition to Yoon Dong-hee's home run, Moon Dong-ju gave up four hits and one walk until the second inning, allowing four runs and being replaced after 42 pitches. Initially, Hanwha allocated 70 to 80 pitches to Moon Dong-joo, but Cho Dong-wook was put behind him after a quick replacement for an unexpected early hit.
On this day, Lotte hit two home runs in a day for the first time in a long time. In the eighth inning, Jung Hoon also showed off the veteran's spicy taste by shooting a solo shot to the left against Hanwha's ultra-fast Young Gun Jung Woo-joo.
After the game, Yoon Dong-hee said, `I didn't know that Moon Dong-ju, the opposing starter, was such a good pitcher that I didn't know he would hit a home run. I think I was lucky to hit a fastball at a good timing. I'll keep up the good spirits in the next game"I looked back.

Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung, who won his third game of the season (5 losses), said, `Kim Jin-wook played his role well as a starting pitcher, and accordingly, the batters were able to lead the game by showing concentration from the beginning and scoring points. a young bullpen. I also want to praise the pitchers for doing their part well"I looked back at the game on that day.
