The national baseball team, led by Manager Ryu Ji-hyun, made a great start in the Group B opening match of the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games by defeating Taiwan 5–0.

Kim Joo-won focused on clean contact and balls in play rather than big swings, delivering a multi-hit performance, while Yoon Dong-hee came off the bench as a pinch hitter and hit a wedge home run in his very first at-bat.

Sports Mug brings you the game review and the resolutions for the remaining tournament from the two batters who led the opening victory against Taiwan.
