Lewin Diaz hit his 20th home run with a walk-off home run. He hit his 21st home run in the very next game. This time, it's a net shot.
Diaz started as the fourth first baseman against Lotte at Lions Park in Daegu on the 27th.
Diaz, who had been quiet in the previous three at-bats, burst in the bottom of the seventh inning with a 5-1 lead. With one out and one on the first base, Lotte left-hander Kim Jin-wook's 126km high curve toward the body, which was called up and pitched on the day, was pulled with an accurate hit. Right fielder Yoon Dong-hee hit the fence amid shouts from Lions Park's home fans. He jumped at the last minute, but the ball disappeared through the stands.
It was Diaz's 21st homer of the season without hesitation, with his superior two-run shot that sealed the 7-1 victory. It was like a welcome rain for Samsung's batting lineup, where main gun Koo Ja-wook was absent from the starting lineup to adjust his batting sense.
