Now, he has completely shed his slump at the beginning of the season. Lotte Giants' Yoon Dong-hee fixed the bat.
Yoon Dong-hee led his team's come-from-behind victory against the Doosan Bears in Jamsil on the 26th with four hits and a bat. In addition to hitting, he also dug home twice, including a bold double steal, changing the flow.
Soon, his batting average exceeded .300 ( .302, 19 hits in 63 at-bats), and his OPS (on-base plus slugging) rose to .865. After returning to the first team, he also tasted home runs. Yoon Dong-hee said "I have a good feeling of hitting these days. I think it's helpful to keep the sense since I played it actively from the beginning," he said with a big smile.
I never went down to the second division last year, but I went there early this year. Yun Dong-hee said "My mindset has changed. Before going to the second division, I was very conscious of breaking balls, and as a result, the hitting point was constantly behind me. I felt like my swing was getting smaller, tooHe tried to pull the point forward in the second team and hit it two strikes ago", he explained.
In the sixth inning of the previous day, he won his first comeback point with a surprise double steal against Reyes, changing the atmosphere and setting the stage for the chase. Because he has a bad thigh, third baseman Yoon Dong-hee's role was really important.

"I talked to the coach in advance. Apart from the batter (Na Seung-yeop), Reyes tried to steal second base at the ball count of 3B2S, and the third baseman went in immediately after watching the defense. Reyes' steal was key."
There was only one four-hit game last year. It was the first four-hit game in 227 days since Sept. 11, 2024, against SSG Landers. Yun Dong-hee was not very conscious. In the last at-bat, I played with the mindset of `Let's play without regret.'", he explained.
He also did not forget his gratitude to Futures coach Kim Yong-hee and Futures batting coach Lee Byung-kyu. Yoon Dong-hee said "I remember director Kim Yong-hee saying "Turn the swing more confidently" He told me to hit the ball boldly instead of trying to hit it after seeing it all. It was helpful to talk a lot with coach Lee Byung-kyu."

Then "Slump can't be easily overcome alone. I think I've found a way to live thanks to the seniors saying a lot of good things." I've been watching the first-team game steadily, but it was very helpful to have time alone.
Lotte is on a peak rise. Already, the ranking has risen to second place. Yoon Dong-hee also said, `Last year, I was in a hurry if I gave a score at the beginning, but this year, I think I have confidence that I can win even if everyone is losing. Even on the bench, everyone talks a lot about being calm and more focused. He stressed.
When he came up to the first team in his second year, (Kim) Min-seok had a lot of hits with the bat. I gave Minseok the bat today in return, and he was so good (2 hits in 3 times at bat). I'm on another team, but I'm always rooting for him. I hope you do well."
