The 418-homer powerhouse will retire.

"Park Byung-ho and Lim Chang-min recently announced their intention to retire from the club. I can no longer watch the plays of the two veteran players who have played for the Korean professional baseball for a long time.

After being selected as LG's first nomination in 2005, Park transferred to the Samsung Lions through a trade in May last year after passing through Nexen (Kium) and KT. Immediately after the transfer, he launched a home run, contributing to the Lions' rise in the rankings.




He played in 1,767 professional games and recorded a career batting average of 272, 418 homers and 1,244 RBIs. In particular, it has established itself as a major player in Korean professional baseball, with 52 home runs in 2014 and 53 home runs in 2015. Based on this performance, he played for Minnesota (including Triple-A Rochester) in the Major League for two years from 2016.

Park Byung-ho has been loved a lot for 20 years in professional baseball. Thank you to all the coaches and coaches who have coached me so far, and I was so happy with my colleagues who were able to be with me. I've moved around several teams, but I don't think I'll forget many fans who have always shown love. Thank you so much."

Along with Park Byung-ho, Samsung also reported Lim Chang-min's retirement. Lim Chang-min wore a professional uniform in 2008 as the 11th pick in the second round of the Hyundai. After going through Heroes (Nexen), NC, Doosan, and Kiwoom, he became a member of the Samsung Lions through a two-year FA contract in January last year.




Lim Chang-min pitched in 563 professional games, with 30 wins, 123 saves, 87 holds, and an ERA of 3.78. In particular, it contributed to the Samsung Lions ranking second in the regular season by recording 28 holds last year.4

Lim Chang-min said, `Thanks to the fans who cheered me on when my performance was good or bad, I did my best and enjoyed playing baseball until the end. I'm really happy to finish my career with the Samsung Lions."
