Ha Joo-seok, who was the ninth batter, was forward-deployed as the second batter. It is his second batter appearance since the game against the Ulsan NC Dinos on the 21st.
In the game on the 23rd, Ha Joo-seok performed multi-hit, including a double in his first at-bat and a timely hit in his second at-bat.
Ha Joo-seok has played in nine games since he was called up to the first team on the 13th, showing a good batting sense with a batting average of 343 RBIs. Ha Joo-seok said "As I went to the game recently, I had a strong desire to play well, so my swing got bigger and stronger. I've been trying to hit it lightly since practice, but it was a good result."
Lee Jin-young, who has emerged as the main outfielder this season and has a batting average of 294 and four home runs in 41 games, was excluded from the starting lineup due to clumping of left adductor muscles. An official from Hanwha explained that it is possible to play as a substitute.
