Doosan Bears won 10-5 in the game against Hanwha Eagles held at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon. Doosan, which had won two games in a row, won its 13th win (16 losses) and maintained its 7th place. Hanwha (11 wins, 17 losses) is mired in 6 consecutive losses. Hanwha, which sold out 13 consecutive home games with a crowd of 10,000 spectators on this day, set a new record for the most consecutive sellouts of home games in the KBO League, but was unable to smile. Doosan's second-year professional right-hander Young-gun Kim Yoo-seong showed decent pitching in his first start since his debut, allowing 3 hits (1 home run), 4 strikeouts, 2 walks, and 2 runs in 5 innings. Yu-seong Kim was selected by the NC Dinos in the 2021 rookie draft, but withdrew due to controversy over school violence, and then entered Korea University. Kim Yoo-seong, who served a one-year suspension from the Korea Baseball Softball Association, re-entered the 2023 rookie draft and was nominated by Doosan. Kim Yoo-seong, who pitched in 7 games as a reliever in the first team last year, took the opportunity to pitch for the first time since his debut on this day as the gap in the Doosan starting lineup increased due to the departure of two foreign pitchers due to injuries, and did his part to report his first win since his debut. . Doosan's batting lineup tormented the Hanwha mound with 13 hits. Seok-Hwan Yang played an active role with 3 hits in 4 at-bats, 3 RBIs, and 2 runs, including a solo shot. Hanwha's big rookie Hwang Jun-seo allowed six runs, hitting six hits, including two home runs, and walking five in 3⅔ innings. Hwang Jun-seo suffered his second loss (1 win) of the season. Doosan, who scored the first run in the top of the second inning when leadoff hitter Yang Seok-hwan hit a left-field solo home run (fourth of the season), added three more runs in the third inning. In the top of the third inning, the bases were loaded with no outs thanks to an infield hit and two walks, and Kang Seung-ho hit a sacrifice fly. With one out and runners on second and third base, Seok-Hwan Yang hit an infield hit to add one point, and Henry Ramos' sacrifice fly gave Doosan a 4-0 lead. In the top of the 4th inning, with 2 outs and runners on first base, Yang Eui-ji fired a two-run gun (4th of the season) that went over the left-center wall, scoring 2 more points. When Hanwha caught up with Chae Eun-seong's solo shot (2nd of the season) in the bottom of the 4th inning, Doosan ran away again. In the top of the 5th inning, with consecutive hits by Ramos and Kim Ki-yeon and the opponent's error resulting in two outs and 2nd and 3rd bases, Park Joon-young hit a timely hit with 2 RBIs to left. Doosan added 2 runs in the 7th inning to take an 8-2 lead. In the top of the 7th inning, Yang Seok-hwan hit a timely hit to right with no outs on second base, and with Ramos' single and Kim Ki-yeon's advanced base hit followed by two outs and runners on first and third base, Jeong Soo-bin hit to right and called the runner on third base home. In the bottom of the 7th inning, Hanwha made up for 1 point with Lee Do-yoon's triple and Jeong Eun-won's infield ground ball, and then Jonathan Peraza hit a left-field two-run shot to make it 5-10, but they were unable to score any more points and their losing streak was thwarted.
