Kiwoom Heroes' sixth batter Kim Jae-hyun hit a walk-off grand slam to left field against Kia Tigers left-handed pitcher Lee Ui-ri in the bottom of the ninth inning with two outs and bases loaded at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 23rd, securing a victory for Kiwoom. Kia, leading 7-2, saw their lead crumble in the top of the ninth as Lee Tai-yang and then Lee Ui-ri collapsed, allowing the walk-off grand slam and squandering a win they had firmly in hand.
Kia players including Yang Hyeon-jong are walking away with disappointed steps. . August 23, 2026.
