Park Chan-hyung who hit his first professional debut home run to KT Ko Young-pyo.


When he was not nominated as a professional, he immediately served in the military and completed his military service, and played in the independent league Yeoncheon Miracle in 2023-24 and Hwaseong Coryo in 2025 and applied for a tryout of the baseball entertainment program 「Fireworks」 and even passed. He joined Lotte Giants on May 15, 2025 as a nurturing player and appeared as a surprise star, setting a new record for four consecutive hits in his debut, starting with his first hit as a professional on June 19.

This is the story of Lotte Giants infielder Park Chan-hyung.




He was born in 2002 at 175 centimeters. He was a 78-kilometer right-handed left-handed hitter. Park Chan-hyung, who can play multiple infield defense, is now a Lotte Giants infielder who debuted soon. He is a batter from the independent league who might not have been able to play on the first-tier stage like now without injuries to Lotte Giants main players such as Yoon Dong-hee, Na Seung-yeop, Ko Seung-min, Hwang Sung-bin and Son Ho-young.

Park Chan-hyung was called up to the first team when Son Ho-young, the main third baseman, was injured. Starting with his first hit against Hanwha on the 19th, he also set a new record for four consecutive at-bats (one home run) since his debut. On the 27th, he made two hits, one home run, two RBIs and two runs in four at-bats against KT. On the 28th, he also threw another hit as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning. 5 for 7 since debut. The sample is small, but it has a batting average of more than 70%.

Park Chan-hyung is a batter with batting talent who can hit the ball, which Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung also recognized. Two outings were also hit well in front of the fielder and were out.

The batting is great, but the defense is still shaky. All infield positions are possible, but there is no main position to trust so far. He played shortstop instead of Jeon Min-jae on the 27th, but showed signs of anxiety in defense.

Before the game on the 28th, Jun-woo and Kim Min-sung played as the first and second batters, but failed to create a chance. Due to the main players' line injuries, senior players played as leadoffs, but failed to create an opportunity. Lotte lost two consecutive games to KT over the weekend. He is on the verge of losing three games in a row.

Lotte cannot set up a normal entry due to a string of key players. Senior players, who have been playing steadily, are also losing a lot of physical strength these days when the weather is getting hot.

Coach Kim Tae-hyung said, `You can defend yourself while playing. If Kim Min-sung and Jeon Min-jae continue to go out, it will be physically difficult. If the right-handed pitcher starts, I'll give Park Chan a chance," he said, cheering.

For Lotte, Park Se-woong will start the last game of the weekend's three consecutive games against KT. KT is Cuevas. We look forward to Park Chan-hyung's performance against Cuevas as a vitality to the team.
