LG Twins is holding a special pre-game ceremony to wish for victory ahead of the weekend home series against Hanwha Eagles on the 19th and 20th.

LG announced on the 18th that it will invite Lee Ki-kwang of the group Highlight and family members of pitcher Lim Chan-kyu, who recently achieved a career total of 100 wins, as ceremonial first pitch throwers and batters ahead of home games against Hanwha at Seoul Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 19th and 20th.

According to LG, Lee Ki-kwang, a member of Highlight who debuted in 2009 under the group name 'BEAST' and has consistently received great love from fans, will throw the ceremonial first pitch on the 19th. Through the club, Lee Ki-kwang expressed his feelings: "I am happy and honored to throw the ceremonial first pitch at an LG Twins home game. I hope all players perform wonderfully without injuries, and I will cheer for a good result together."

Next, on the 20th 'Family Day,' meaningful figures will visit Jamsil. Lim Chan-kyu's mother, Kim Yu-jin, and his sister, Im Yoon-a, who recently became the third person in club history to achieve 100 career wins and the first from a purely LG Twins era, will throw the ceremonial first pitch and bat, respectively. Family Day is an event held to invite family members who have been a great source of strength for the team this year and express gratitude.

Lim Chan-kyu made his starting appearance in an away game against Samsung Lions on the 13th and secured his 100th career victory. This is the third major record in club history, following Kim Yong-soo (126 wins) and Jeong Sam-heum (106 wins), including the era of its predecessor MBC Blue Dragons.

Mother Kim Yu-jin and sister Im Yoon-a said, "We are grateful to be given such a precious opportunity to throw the ceremonial first pitch in the final season at Jamsil Baseball Stadium. It feels like just yesterday we were watching baseball with young Chan-kyu from the stands, but now he has become a key player on the team and has even been invited for a ceremonial first pitch and batting." They added, "We will continue to cheer for all players to finish strong without injuries. We hope everyone will also cheer for our Chan-kyu."

Meanwhile, LG is also organizing various events to commemorate the final year at Jamsil Baseball Stadium. After the game on the 19th, a 'Forever Jamsil Night' event featuring fireworks and cheer squad performances will be held. Additionally, from the 19th to the 20th, a 'Forever Jamsil' commemorative photo zone will be operated at the infield plaza near first and third bases and the third-base infield deck, and a 'LG Twins X Malbon' collaborative pop-up store is scheduled to be set up in the outfield catchball area.
