Park Hae-min's bat was red-hot right from his first plate appearance.

With no outs and a runner on first in the bottom of the first inning, he hammered a high fastball from Hanwha starting pitcher Ryu Hyun-jin, driving a two-run homer over the Monster Wall for the opening score.

Park extended the lead by hitting another RBI single in the second inning with a three-run advantage, and he caught fire once again during a crucial moment.

In the fourth inning with no outs and a runner on first and LG trailing 5-4, he capitalized on a low changeup from relief pitcher Park Jun-young, launching a decisive double to keep the momentum going with runners on second and third with no outs.

Ultimately, the LG offense scored nine runs in the fourth inning alone, starting with Austin's bases-loaded walk, successfully turning the game around once again.

Bolstered by Park Hae-min's stellar performance of 3 hits and 4 RBIs, alongside Austin—who reclaimed sole possession of the home run lead with his 29th homer of the season—LG is aiming to put an end to its eight-game losing streak.

Meanwhile, Ha Joo-suk, who changed uniforms from Hanwha to KIA and made his debut appearance as the starting second baseman today, completed a successful introductory game by driving in an RBI double in his very first plate appearance.
