  "summary": "Kia Tigers' Na Sung-bum made a notable appearance in Game 3 of the KBO postseason against the LG Twins, delivering two solo home runs despite being overshadowed by his superstar teammate Kim Do-yeong. Na's performance opened the scoring with his first homer in the second inning, and he added a second in the same inning as the Tigers led 8-0. However, it was Kim's colossal grand slam that stole the show, tying the record for the longest postseason home run in KBO history at 145 meters and making him the youngest player to accomplish such a feat at just 23 years and 18 days old. Na's contribution, while significant, was eclipsed by Kim's heroic display, highlighting the star power of the Tigers' lineup.",
