Finally, KIA Tigers Kim Do-young will play his return match.

Kim Do-young will start as the third batter and third baseman in the game against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 5th.

With Kim Do-young joining, KIA finally completed the entire lineup.




KIA made the starting lineup with Park Chan-ho (striker), Kim Sun-bin (second baseman), Kim Do-young (third baseman), Choi Hyung-woo (designated hitter), Na Sung-bum (right fielder), Patrick Wisdom (first baseman), Oh Sun-woo (left fielder), Kim Tae-gun (possession), and Kim Ho-ryeong (middle fielder). The starting pitcher is James Nail.

KIA manager Lee Bum-ho registered Kim Do-young in the first division ahead of the match against the Hanwha Eagles in Gwangju on the 2nd. He was scheduled to play as a substitute, but he hoped to return in front of his home fans.

However, Kim Do-young's return match was canceled due to heavy rain ahead of the start of the game. As the match against Hanwha in Gwangju was canceled due to heavy rain on the 3rd, Kim Do-young will play his return match in Busan.

Kim Do-young suddenly lost his power when he injured his hamstring in May. 2nd hamstring injury this year alone. KIA set the timing of its return conservatively, and decided to call up the first team about a day earlier under the judgment that Kim Do-young did not have to wait any longer with his injury cleared.

Kim Do-young won MVP last year with 141 games, a batting average of 0.347 (189 hits in 544 at-bats), 38 homers, 40 steals, and 109 RBIs. This year, he also hit 0.330 (33 hits in 100 at-bats), had seven home runs, 26 RBIs, and had an OPS of 1.008 before his injury. Even if it is difficult to play actively due to a hamstring injury, the power of the bat alone puts enough pressure on the opponent team.

Meanwhile, Lotte made the starting lineup with Jang Doo-sung (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (first baseman), Son Ho-young (third baseman), Victor Reyes (left fielder), Yoon Dong-hee (right fielder), Jeon Joon-woo (designated hitter), Yoo Kang-nam (catcher), Park Seung-wook (striker), and Han Tae-yang (second baseman) against nails. The starting pitcher is Alec Gamboa.
