"There was a long gap, but fortunately, the hitting is not bad these days."
Immediately after returning from injury, Yoon Dong-hee said what he wanted to do.
He went 5 for 10 against the LG Twins, his first return series. The batting average, which had fallen slightly below 30%, has been raised back to above 30 (30.9%).
However, he continued to remain silent in three consecutive weekend games against Kiwoom. He continued to get on base with a walk every game, but he was hitless in seven at-bats. Yoon Dong-hee's poor performance in the clean-up led to the overall silence of the batters.
It was different against the Busan KIA Tigers on Saturday. Trailing 0-1, he fired a come-from-behind two-run shot in the bottom of the fourth inning. The first point was KIA Wisdom's home run, and Lotte's 50th team home run this season. It was all the more precious for Lotte, which came in last place in team home runs (101 from Samsung, 64 from SSG, ranked 9th).

KIA also appeared as a leadoff hitter in the bottom of the sixth inning when Oh Sun-woo's tying two-run shot, and got on base with a hit, opening the scoring for the final two points. Lotte completed a 7-4 victory with Han Tae-yang's successive timely hits in the sixth and seventh innings.
After the game, Yoon said, `I'm happy to win my first home game in the second half. The team had an All-Star break break in the first half of the year, and it seems that the team's focus to help the team win in the second half led to a good result for the at-bat"I looked back.
Then "Many people in Sangdong helped me. Coach Kim Yong-hee, Coach Lee Byung-kyu, Coach Kim Hoesung, Training Coach Lee Sang-kyung, and Coach Lim Kyung-wan all helped me to get better condition. I want to say thank you," he stressed.

Lotte is in third place, three games behind second-place LG. While KIA has been shaken by its last four consecutive losses, KT Wiz has been trailing in fourth place by two games. At the top of the seven-game difference ranking table, Hanwha is the Dokya Cheongcheong.
It was the first home game of the second half. Yun Dong-hee said "It's only the beginning of the second half. I will do my best to do my part so that the team can win more and go in a better flow," he stressed.
