Yesterday (the 6th), during the game against KT held in Gwangju, KIA's Kim Do-young narrowly fell short in his bid to become the youngest player in history to hit 40 home runs.
After hitting a hard-hit ball that struck opposing pitcher Sugimoto during his final plate appearance in the bottom of the 8th inning, he immediately headed to the mound right after reaching base to check on the pitcher's condition and express his apology.
