"I'll cheer up again next week."

Noh Si-hwan (25) started as the fourth batter and third baseman in a home game against the Lotte Giants at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 25th and hit a three-run home run in the first inning.

Hanwha took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when leadoff hitter Esteban Floral hit a home run.

With Floral's home run, the lineup began to burst in earnest. Ha Joo-seok and Moon Hyun-bin hit, shaking Lotte starter Han Hyun-hee.

Chance for first and second base with no outs. Noh Si-hwan pushed the outside slider for the fourth pitch in 1B2S and over the right fence. It was the first home run in 23 days since he hit his 10th home run of the season against the KIA Tigers on the 2nd.

The sense of hit continued. In the bottom of the second inning, Han Hyun-hee rolled up a slider to the lower part of Han Hyun-hee's body to make a hit in front of left field. Ha Joo-seok scored his fourth RBI as he stepped home.

With Noh Si-hwan serving as a troubleshooter, Hanwha took the lead by opening the score 6-0 until the second inning.

Hanwha, which allowed a tie by giving up six runs at once in the top of the fifth inning, added one more run in the bottom of the sixth inning, but in the top of the ninth inning, Jeon Jun-woo hit a tie-breaking home run with two outs and eventually extended the game for two consecutive days.

Hanwha, which lost the previous day, did not cry twice. In the bottom of the 10th inning of extra time, when the score was 7-7, Moon Hyun-bin got a walk to push, and eventually regained the second place.

Noh Si-hwan, who had been suffering from heartache because there was no home run, was also able to laugh. Noh Si-hwan was sluggish with a batting average of 1667 in eight games in March, but he seemed to regain his dignity as a big guns again with 333 seven home runs in 24 games in April. However, in 20 games in May, the batting average was .231, showing a downward curve.

After the game, Noh Si-hwan said, `It's encouraging that a home run came out after a long time while the hitting was not good,' adding "Trying to swing lightly without hitting a ground ball led to a home run." I will raise the pace again so that I can win a lot."

Noh Si-hwan "I'm trying to fix the bad points during practice because I don't have a good feeling of hitting. Once I get a hit again, there are times when I come up, so I'm trying." "It was okay that my baseball hasn't been good, but it was hard because it didn't help the team." Taking this opportunity, I'll cheer up again from next week"He expressed his determination.
