The mission for Park Chul-soon, the starting pitcher for the Dong team in the Legends Match, was to face exactly one batter.

The fastball he threw toward catcher Lee Man-soo clocked in at 76 km/h.

In the batter's box stood Kim Bong-yeon, the home run champion of the inaugural season of professional baseball.

This pairing alone sent a thrill through the hearts of baseball fans.

At the "Jamsil The Last Inning by Renault" Legends Match held on the 14th at Jamsil Baseball Stadium, Park Chul-soon, who took the mound as the Dong team's starting pitcher, left his mark with storytelling moments, including a warm embrace with pitching legend and manager Kim Sung-keun, before stepping down from the mound to take on the role of pitching coach.

As each Dong team pitcher was replaced, Park bowed respectfully while handing over the ball, a gesture that moved everyone to solemnity.

In an interview, Park said, "It hurts. I laughed a lot, cried a lot, and rolled around with my teammates here, but when it comes down to this being the last Jamsil game, my heart aches beyond just feeling disappointed or left wanting," his gaze filled with deep emotion.
