"Really? Did you lose?" I was winning earlier."

LG Twins catcher Park Dong-won smiled broadly at the news that his team tied for first after leading the team to a 4-3 victory over the KIA Tigers in Jamsil on the 27th.

The leading Hanwha Eagles led 6-5 until the sixth inning against the Incheon SSG Landers, but collapsed in the bottom of the seventh inning when the bullpen allowed three runs, losing 6-8. Hanwha tied with 44 wins, 31 losses and 1 draw, and LG with 44 wins, 31 losses and 2 draws.




LG had a very difficult June. Until the 26th, he remained in seventh place with 8 wins, 10 losses and 1 draw in June. In May, he topped the list with 15 wins, 10 losses, 1 draw, and a 0.600 win rate, almost forgetting all the wins he had accumulated in June. Still, LG has recently won two consecutive games and seems to be gradually re-entering the trend.

When asked in June if the joint first place ranking would motivate tired players, Park Dong-won said, "It could be. First of all, we have to have a good June, but we have only a few games left until the All-Star break. Until then, the players talked a lot to cheer up. The coach also said to cheer up for the rest of the game. Instead, he asked you to cheer up until then because you don't have to work out a day during the All-Star Game vacation. That's why the players are a little more responsible, and I think everyone is working hard to produce a little better results."

Park Dong-won accomplished the decisive task of leading the team in a tie for first place. In the bottom of the sixth inning, trailing 0-2, he hit a three-run left-hander with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, turning it over to 3-2. KIA veteran left-hander Yang Hyeon-jong, who lasted five ⅔ innings without losing a point, was destroyed at once.




LG's Kim Jin-sung allowed Wisdom to score a tie solo shot in the top of the eighth inning, but Moon Sung-joo hit a timely hit to the right in the bottom of the eighth inning with two outs and second base to seal the 4-3 victory.

A game between KIA and LG at Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 27th, Yang Hyun-jong stopped while going down the mound after giving up a come-from-behind three-run home run to Park Dong-won in the bottom of the sixth inning. Jamsil= Reporter's wook@sportschosun.com/2025.06.27/
Park Dong-won " (Yang Hyun-jong) threw a lot of changeups in his first at-bat. My batting coach also advised me that I think I'll throw a changeup, so shouldn't I trust my batting coach. The reliability is very high because the batting coach gives good guidance. I trusted the coach and saw the first change-up, and luckily, I got a good result" he said.

Then "It's a good reverse victory. (Moon)It was really good when Sungjoo hit it. Rather, in this case, all I think is that I have to do is prevent it better (as a catcher). I thought it would be nice if I could get one or two more points soon. It's more important to go out and finish well. I'm paying attention to that as a catcher."




LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `It was a game that was taken as a whole, but Park Dong-won's come-from-behind home run was able to bring the flow of the game, and in a crisis that could pass the flow in the seventh inning, Lee Jung-yong was able to continue without losing the flow by blocking the first and third bases with one out. At the critical moment, Moon Sung-joo was able to win by hitting the final shot, and Yoo Young-chan played a good role as the team's finishing pitcher in a tough situation for two consecutive days. I think we will be able to create conditions for stable operation of the team in the future."

Park Dong-won seemed to be more concerned about one home run he gave to Wisdom than the home run that led to his team's victory.

Park Dong-won said "I hate that the most. From the catcher's point of view, he's winning, but if I go out and give him a score, he'll blame himself like, 'Oh, I made a mistake again.' I should pay more attention to that than I scored," he said, reflecting on himself and determined.
