Diaz started as the fourth first baseman against Hanwha at Lions Park in Daegu on the 6th and hit a solo home run in his first at-bat in the bottom of the second inning. The 44th of the season.
Diaz, who was the leadoff hitter in the bottom of the second inning, trailing 0-4 with four runs in the top of the second inning, pushed a 153km high ball by Hanwha starter Moon Dong-ju's third pitch. The 120-meter home run slightly over the right-angled left-center fence. It was a home run that benefited from Lions Park's fence structure.

Before the game, Samsung manager Park Jin-man said, `I hit a home run from the away and came to Daegu, so I had high expectations, but the home run didn't hit"It seems that strength has entered because it is conscious of something big." At the same time, he offered a solution, saying, `You can hit an out-of-the-field home run even if you hit it lightly with a swing speed of Diaz.'
It was delivered to the player through the coaching staff. The home run hit from the first at-bat.
A precious shot that revived the atmosphere that was down 0-4. In the bottom of the first inning, the team's first hit was a meaningful solo shot after Kim Ji-chan, Kim Sung-yoon and Koo Ja-wook, who Samsung boasts of to Moon Dong-ju, suffered a KKK.
Diaz is aiming for the first 50 home runs as a foreigner and 150 RBIs, the most in a season.
