Yang Eui-ji of the Doosan Bears won the honor of tying the most awards in Golden Glove history.

Yang Eui-ji received the honor of winning the catcher category at the '2025 KBO Golden Glove Awards' held at Lotte Hotel World in Jamsil, Seoul on the 9th. Yang Eui-ji won 278 out of 316 valid votes, winning 88% of the vote.

LG Park Dong-won followed with 23 votes, followed by Samsung Kang Min-ho with 6 votes, NC Kim Hyung-joon with 5 votes, Hanwha Choi Jae-hoon with 3 votes, and KT Jang Sung-woo with 1 vote.




He was honored with the most award-winning tie record ever. Yang Eui-ji won his 10th individual award, setting a milestone that matches Lee Seung-yeop (former Samsung)'s record of winning 10 awards.

Yang Eui-ji won the Gunners category in 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2023, starting with her first win in 2014, and she won the Golden Gloves in the Designated Hitters category in 2021. He already broke the record for the most golden gloves ever by winning his eighth career catcher in 2023, and held his ninth catcher's golden glove this year.

Lotte and Doosan at Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 28th, and pinch hitter Yang Eui-ji, one out and runners on first and second bases, are happy to hit an RBI timely hit in the bottom of the sixth inning. Jamsil= Reporter's wook@sportschosun.com/2025.09.28/
Yang Eui-ji recorded 130 games, a batting average of 0.337 (153 hits in 454 at-bats), 20 home runs, 89 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.939. He won his second individual batting title after 2019, increasing his chances of winning the Golden Glove Award.




Last year, he suffered a humiliation of not being even a candidate with only 608 ⅓ innings on defense, but this year, he filled 726 innings on defense, exceeding the standard.

The only hitters in the past are Lee Man-soo of the Samsung Lions in 1984 and Yang Eui-ji in 2019 and 2025.

Yang Eui-ji said, `First of all, I am very happy to receive a big award at this glorious event once again. Thank you to the many people who voted to receive the award. This year, baseball fans cheered the players with a large audience. Not playing much in the game last year due to many injuries was a medicine. I am grateful to coach Cho In-sung for the training part that said I could do it and for giving me strength from the side. Doosan has had ups and downs this year, and I am grateful to fans who always support Doosan. I will prepare well so that I don't bother you with this award and try to win the 11th prize. Next year, I hope we can win the 11th and director awards together with the new director Kim Won-hyung. I will come back with a good score next year, not ninth place."
