Byung-ho, I love you. When Park Byung-ho, who hit a three-run shot from his first at-bat in the first inning, entered the dugout, Won Tae-in, who ran out, welcomed the home run batter by drawing a heart above his head.

The match between the Hanwha Eagles and the Samsung Lions took place at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon on the 12th. Blue blood ace Won Tae-in also turned into a Samsung fan on days when he did not play.

Even when Koo Ja-wook hit two two-run shots the previous day, Won Tae-in, who was in the dugout, ran out and shared high-fives and was happy. The hot hitting of Samsung fielders, who won 10-1 with 17 hits, including two home runs, continued the next day.

Starting with a hit by leadoff hitter Kim Ji-chan in the first inning, Koo Ja-wook hit one after another, creating a chance with one out and runners on first and second bases. Later, Diaz scored the first point with a timely hit. In the following at-bat, when Park Byung-ho hit Hanwha starter Kim Ki-joong's curve and crossed the left fence, the Samsung dugout atmosphere heated up from the first inning.

As soon as he got hit, Park Byung-ho felt his home run and turned around the base vigorously. Diaz and Koo Ja-wook, who scored, shared a high-five with home run batter Park Byung-ho and headed to the dugout together.

Park Byung-ho, who played in 44 games and had only four home runs before the trade in late May, began to burst again after moving to Samsung. After adjusting, Park hit seven home runs in August and five in September, setting a new KBO league record of 400 home runs.

The bat heated up again in Samsung uniform. From the first inning, Park Byung-ho hit a three-run shot, and Samsung brought the atmosphere of the game early.

While Park Byung-ho, who hit a home run, entered the dugout and exchanged high-fives with his teammates, Won Tae-in, who came to the front of the ground, drew a big heart above his head. Won Tae-in, who turned into a Samsung fan who was briefly touched by Park Byung-ho's home run, maintained a heart pose with a happy expression for a while before entering the dugout again.

Samsung fielders, who succeeded in withdrawing Hanwha starter Kim Ki-joong early by scoring four runs in the first inning, continued in the third inning.

After the leadoff hitter Diaz's hit in the third inning, Park Byung-ho and Kang Min-ho stepped down with a mistake, with two outs and runners on first base. When Kim Hun-gon, who entered the batter's box, hit Hanwha Cho Dong-wook's fastball and hit a two-run shot, Won Tae-in came to the ground once more and was delighted by tapping the home run batter's helmet. Kim Hun-gon, who had a thrilling taste of his first home run in 70 days in the second half, performed a heart ceremony for Samsung's away fans who filled the third base stands.

Samsung, which showed strong offense in the first inning with Park Byung-ho's three-run shot and Kim Heon-gon's two-run shot in the third inning, won 7 to 1 to secure second place.
