KT Wiz delivered a special gift for '500 win coach'.

KT held an award ceremony to commemorate coach Lee Kang-chul's 500th victory ahead of the game against the Hanwha Eagles at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 18th.

Coach Lee achieved his 500th career victory with a 6-3 victory over the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 4th. Lee's 500th win was the 14th in history. However, it is meaningful in that it achieved 500 wins in one club after Kim Eung-yong, Kim Jae-bak, Kim Kyung-moon, and Kim Tae-hyung.




Manager Lee, who began his leadership career at KT in 2019, won his first victory against the Suwon KIA Tigers on March 29, 2019. Coach Lee, who won 100 games against the Suwon Samsung Lions on July 11, 2020, led KT to its first unified championship in 2021.

Manager Lee consistently led KT to fall baseball except for his first year in office.

To commemorate its 500th win, the KT club presented overseas travel gift certificates, commemorative frames (composed of photos containing the 500-win record journey), and 500-win commemorative balls.




Meanwhile, KT canceled the Yeter Festival event scheduled for that day. The sudden downpour caused flood victims across the country, and I want to be with them.

KT decided to sympathize with the pain of the flood victims and hope that the damage will be restored as soon as possible as the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters issued a crisis warning for storm and flood damage on the 17th"There is no water spray, but only the usual innings event will be held. The mirror ball time was canceled after the four consecutive games against Hanwha on the 17th and 20th."
