Ahn Hyun-min hit a home run for the Korean baseball team. Immediately, there was a huge scene at Tokyo Dome where he hit a solo shot to Song Sung-moon to record consecutive batter home runs.
Ahn Hyun-min fired a two-run shot in the first round of the "2025 NAVER K-BASEBALL SERIES" warm-up match against Japan at Tokyo Dome, Japan on the 15th.
This is the first time for the senior national team and the first time for the Tokyo Dome, and he hit a home run in his second at-bat.
Ahn Hyun-min, who started as the second right-handed pitcher, retired to center field by Japanese left-handed starter Ryuhei Sotani in the top of the first inning.
In the top of the fourth inning, he met a changed pitcher, but faced Daisuke Moriura, the same left-handed pitcher. With Shin Min-jae hitting his first hit and no outs on the first base, Ahn Hyun-min, who took the batter's box, hit a 144km fastball, which was the third pitch in the ball count of 1B1S. As soon as he hit it, he threw the bat and made him feel that it was a home run.
He passed it over to the left-center stands, which he used to fly during practice, in the actual game. The moment Korea led 2-0.
Immediately, Song Sung-moon responded to Ahn Hyun-min's home run with a rendezvous home run. He kicked a low fastball of 145km for the third pitch in 2B and became a home run over the right fence.
The moment Korea led 3-0.
While starting Sotani threw a fastball of up to 150km, Moriuta is not very fast, with a maximum of 146km, so it can be said that Korean sluggers were rather good to hit.
As two home runs came out in a row, Japanese spectators began to react to the fly ball. Both Moon Bo-kyung and Park Dong-won were caught as outfield flies, but each time they hit, they let out a sigh of concern.
When asked at a press conference the day before, Japanese national team coach Hirokazu Ibata picked Ahn Hyun-min along with Noh Si-hwan. Ahn Hyun-min said he was interested because it was his first time seeing him. Ahn Hyun-min directly showed coach Ibata that he was a 'monster hitter'.
