KIA Tigers' Yoon Do-hyun fired his first home run of the season.
Yoon Do-hyun started as the 2nd-2nd baseman against Kiwoom Heroes at Gwangju Kia Champions Field on the 28th. KIA had to face the game on the day amid the bad news that main gun Kim Do-young hurt his right hamstring while stealing against Kiwoom the previous day. Yoon Do-hyun, who gave up his second base position to Hong Jong-pyo the previous day, took the opportunity to start again after a long time, amid a large number of key hitters such as Na Sung-bum, Kim Sun-bin, Wisdom and Choi Won-joon.
Yoon Do-hyun hit a chasing solo shot in the bottom of the fifth inning when his team was trailing 2-6. He pulled the 125km slider of opponent starter Kim Yeon-joo, who came in from the 2B1S advantageous ball count as the leadoff hitter.
The ball that stretched out like a missile landed on the third base's outfield KIA bullpen. Kia Tigers is chasing Yoon with his home run of 110 meters.
Yoon Do-hyun drew attention as a classmate and friend in Gwangju with Kim Do-young. Yoon Do-hyun is also a player with as good batting qualities as Kim Do-young, and has been receiving opportunities since last year in the eyes of coach Lee Bum-ho. It was predicted that he would play an important role in this year's spring camp, and he received many opportunities from actual exhibition games. In addition, due to the injury of the opening game Kim Do-young, he seemed to take a chance as the de facto main player. However, both the ball and the ball had to suffer from severe poor performance.
However, he fired a reversal signal with his first home run of the season. It's not his first home run since his debut. Yoon Do-hyun hit a home run in the final game of the regular season against the NC Dinos on September 30 last year.
