Samsung Lions manager Park Jin-man (50) beamed with a broad smile at the powerful batting of Kim Young-ung (23), who hit a decisive bases-loaded home run the previous day (26th).
On the previous day (26th), Kim Young-ung hit a spectacular bases-loaded home run at Seoul Gocheok Sky Dome in the game against Kiwoom Heroes, leading his team to victory. At the moment when Kim Young-ung's batted ball went over the wall, manager Park Jin-man's image from the dugout, clapping and laughing broadly as if cheering, was captured on the broadcast screen and became a major topic of discussion.
Ahead of the game on the 27th, manager Park Jin-man, who met with on-site reporters, responded to StarNews's question about his passionate reaction at the time, saying "The count was unfavorable, so deep down I was thinking 'don't strike out,'" and "But the moment he hit it perfectly, I reacted like that without even realizing it," he said with a laugh.
He also mentioned there was some difficulty in the recent series of away games against Kiwoom at Gocheok. Manager Park said, "In fact, whenever we play against Kiwoom at Gocheok, we've always had tough games. It felt like all the frustration that had been pent up was suddenly released," and "Young-ung had some disappointing moments up until now, but yesterday he showed great performance in a crucial situation. Thanks to that, additional runs came in, allowing the team to manage pitchers and handle the latter part of the game with much more ease," expressing his gratitude.
Manager Park credited Kim Young-ung's return to hitting form to his diligent hard work in the Futures League (second team). Regarding Kim Young-ung, Park said, "In the Futures League, he increased his training volume significantly and prepared really well. After hitting 2 home runs in one Futures game, I judged that his hitting pace had improved, so I called him up," and "Even if it's not a solid hit, as he gets hits, he's gradually finding his balance. He's in the process of gradually finding his perfect pace," he said without sparing praise.
He also shared his thoughts on the rare record of two bases-loaded home runs in a single game. Manager Park said, "Throughout my playing career and coaching career, I don't think I've ever directly witnessed two bases-loaded home runs in a single game before," and "I remember coach Jung Kyung-bae (current Lotte Giants coach) hitting back-to-back bases-loaded home runs during his playing days, but I've never seen it happen like this on our team. It's really fortunate that we hit them and didn't allow them," he said.
