'11 Games, 7 Wins, ERA 1.39' — Could there be a foreign investor like this in the world? "I want to create more good memories in Korea." Pedro Avila is sheer terror.
Pedro Avila (29, SSG Landers) secured another victory. With overwhelming stability — achieving a quality start (QS: six or more innings pitched with three or fewer earned runs allowed) in 10 of his 11 appearances — he is casting a bright light on SSG's future for next season. On the 16th, Avila started against Lotte Giants at Sajik Baseball Stadium in Busan during an away game in the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League.

A beloved Doosan ace, Wes Benjamin, responds unexpectedly to praise from his former mentor Lee Kang-cheol: "I'm so grateful for the compliments; I'm happy that my efforts have been proven."
This season, Wes Benjamin (33), who started as a replacement foreign player for Doosan Bears and rose to become their ace, expressed sincere gratitude after earning a victory in just his second game back from injury, following high praise from his former mentor Lee Kang-cheol (60), manager of KT Wiz.

"I will support (Kwak) Bin-hyung well." Self-provided supporting role with the most wins, surprising 'AG universe'... Choe Min-seok's gaze: "Unconditionally a gold medal"
"I hope I can pitch well too, but I will support (Kwak) Bin-hyung well." Choe Min-seok (20, Doosan Bears), the league's top hit product this season with the most wins, lowered his posture. Ahead of his first national team tournament, he showed great respect for his seniors. Choe Min-seok, who graduated from Seoul High School and joined Doosan in the second round last year, made a perfect comeback this season. In 25 games, he pitched 138⅔ innings with a record of 14 wins and 4 losses, posting an

The 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games baseball national team is showing confidence about the crucial turning point in the group stage.

The Korean national baseball team, led by manager Ryu Ji-hyun (55), will face Taiwan in the first match of Group B in the group stage on the 21st. The game against T
