Ahn Chi-hong, who couldn't afford 7.2 billion dollars, made a three-run shot like a lightning strike against Lotte.
The game between Hanwha and Lotte at Sajik Baseball Stadium in Busan on the 17th, Hanwha An Chi-hong hitting a three-run home run with two outs and runners on the first and third bases in the top of the third inning and sharing joy with third base coach Kim Jae-gul.

Did he really survive.

Hanwha Eagles An Chi-hong's first home run of the season hit. An important game, when it's important, the season's matriarch home run came out.

An Chi-hong hit a pre-emptive three-run shot from Davison in the top of the third inning when the two teams were 0-0 against the Lotte Giants in the first game of a three-game series during the week at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 17th.




It was a pitching match due to the overwhelming pitching of two starters, Davison and Hanwha Weiss. In the top of the third inning, Davison shook as he allowed an infield hit to the lead Lee Do-yoon. He held up to two outs well, but gave up two consecutive walks to leadoff Lee Won-seok, with two outs and runners on first and third bases.

The player who appeared here was An Chi-hong. Ahn Chi-hong, who suffered a scratch on the 7.2 billion ransom due to his severe slump this season, showed signs of survival by hitting multiple hits in two consecutive games against the LG Twins last weekend. Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said, `As Ahn Chi-hong and Noh Si-hwan play well, the score comes out comfortably, and the team brightens up. "I hope you continue to play well..." impressive performance.

However, the nightmare seemed to rise again in the first at-bat of the day. Lee Won-seok survived in the first inning, and he hit a double play. It was a pitch that saved Davison's spirit.




But he blew the sadness perfectly in his second at-bat. When Davison's first-pitch fork ball came in high, An Chi-hong hit it with a thunderous swing and the stretched ball slightly crossed the fence in the left-center of Sajik Stadium.

This is An Chi-hong's first home run of the season. Hanwha, which came to Busan as the lone No. 1 player, can maintain its No. 1 position if it wins on the day.
