Veteran Tigers slugger appreciates chance to play with superstar teammate
SEOUL, Oct. 21 (Yonhap) -- It is not often that a baseball player hits two home ...
Veteran Kia Tigers baseball player Na Sung-bum found himself overshadowed by his superstar teammate Kim Do-yeong during a crucial postseason game. In Game 3 of the best-of-five series against the LG Twins, Na hit two solo home runs - the first in the top of the second inning and the second later in the same game. However, it was Kim's colossal grand slam, measuring 145 meters and tying the record for the longest postseason home run in KBO history, that truly stole the spotlight.
At just 23 years and 18 days old, Kim also became the youngest player to hit a KBO postseason grand slam. Despite Na's impressive batting performance, the Tigers were already leading 8-0 by the time he added his second homer to the game.
