Last night, when Park Byung-ho bowed down, there was a real main character of the "Friendly Team Match."

After two outs in the top of the second inning, Park Byung-ho (38) took off his helmet before taking his first at bat. He bowed deeply to the first base stand.고소득알바

Park Byung-ho played at the KT Wiz Park in Suwon on Tuesday. Having been a KT player until May 28, Park later that night through a trade became a Samsung player. In the first game where Samsung and KT meet in a month, Park again stood at the KT Wiz Park in Suwon as Samsung's No. 7 hitter.

Park Byung-ho's trade was effectively made at Park's request. Since the opening of the season, Park has complained to his club several times about his discontent and concern over not being given a chance to play as he has effectively been pushed out of the starting lineup and became a substitute, and this resulted in the trade. Park was traded for Oh Jae-il, a former Samsung Lions player.


The Samsung-KT match drew attention as Park Byung-ho and Oh Jae-il faced their former teams for the first time since the trade.

Park slammed a home run at his first at-bat when he bowed low and greeted KT, which had been beloved for two years after he was traded as a free agent. When KT starter Joey Hyun's second curveball came into the middle, he immediately hit a solo home run to the left-center wall.

Park displayed explosive play by hitting three home runs in just four games right after joining the Samsung Lions, but remained silent recently. However, Park showed his presence by hitting a home run again in the first batter's box on the first day he visited Suwon in 13 games after the match against LG in Daegu on Sunday.

With his team leading 3-0 at the top of the fourth inning with one out, Park hit an in-between hit, and managed to steal second base, which he does not usually do, for the first time in a long time. It is the first time that Park has had two hits in a game since the match against the Daegu Hanwha Eagles (three hits in five times at bat) on May 31.

For Oh Jae-il, the match was also his first against Samsung in one month since the trade. Playing as the fourth designated hitter, Oh had no hit in three times at bat, choosing one walk.


On this day, Park Byung-ho and Oh Jae-il's "Friendly Team Match" drew great attention, but there was another protagonist who actually made the "Friendly Team" cry.

KT's No. 7 hitter Kim Sang-soo (33) had one hit and two RBIs from three times at bat. He had four hits, two RBIs and three runs from five times at bat in the match against SSG on the previous day, and his batting average in the recent 10 games rose to 0.394 (13 hits from 33 times at bat), showing off his peak batting performance.

Kim Sang-soo's only hit on the day set up a chase for KT. With the bases loaded with no outs in the bottom of the seventh inning when his team was losing 0-4, he hit a timely hit to the right-center field against Samsung's right-handed Lee Seung-hyun (No. 20) and garnered two RBIs.


Kim Sang-soo, who made two RBIs after his team's pursuit, made the bunt to the second base with no outs in the bottom of the ninth inning. He sent Hwang Jae-gyun, the second baseman, to the third base by sending the ball between the catcher and the pitcher. KT then came from behind to win the game 5-4, with Hong Hyun-bin's triple bringing the runner from behind to the plate.

Kim Sang-soo, who played for Samsung for 14 years since his debut in 2009, signed a free agent contract before the last season and moved to KT, where he has been playing as a shortstop for two consecutive years. To Kim, Samsung was the original team.
