There's no chance Yang Eui-ji did it too... People's Desperation, 5 out of 418 home runs in 10 years?

A milestone 32 times in the KBO League. There are many cases where three are hit and only one is missing.
On the 25th, a disappointing case came out in Daegu. It was Park Byung-ho of the Samsung Lions.
Park Byung-ho's bat, who started as the fifth designated hitter in the match against Hanwha, was hot from the beginning of the game. He scored a double, a home run, and a hit in three at-bats until the fourth inning.
A moment when expectations for a cycling hit briefly swelled. But expectations soon dissipated.
This is because the batter was Park Byung-ho. He is a representative slugger who ranks third overall in the KBO league and second in active duty after Choi Seung-yeop with 418 home runs. But I'm not confident about a triple. During 1,749 games, there are only five total triples.
In an interview after the game, KBSN commentator Jang Sung-ho asked if he was conscious of a real triple, and Park Byung-ho shook his head firmly, saying, "There is no possibility." in desperation.

On July 9, 2015, he hit a superior triple against Moon Kyung-chan in the fifth inning against KIA at Mokdong Stadium. In other words, there have been no triples for 3,639 days since then.
Park Byung-ho, who was said to have "5 Tongsan home runs" "There are more than I thought," he said with an awkward smile. 'There hasn't been a triple since 2015The story of ' laughed, saying, `When I was playing in the U.S. (Major League Minnesota Twins in 2016), I hit one at a big stadium.'
Usually, big guns often slow down. But there are also the Hotajuns. Usually, cycling hits are likely to come from big guns with fast feet that can hit a triple. Kim Do-young, who recorded a natural cycling hit last year, is a representative example.
However, the slow-footed big guns are not without cases. Doosan catcher Yang Eui-ji achieved a milestone against Daegu Samsung on April 29, 2021, when he was in NC.
The most difficult course, a triple, came out first.
Yang Eui-ji, who scored a triple hit home run from starter Baek Jung-hyun, completed the hit-for-the-cycle with a left-center double from Shim Chang-min in the seventh inning. Yang Eui-ji's total number of triples is 11.
Park Byung-ho has at least three hits out of 10 homers. Lee Dae-ho (six) is the only player to have a single-digit triple with Park Byung-ho.
Although the milestone was canceled as he expected, his expression brightened. This is because he is heating up by shaking off injuries and sluggishness going all the way to the second division and regaining his sense of hitting in his prime.
