Touhon's 2-hit performance after returning from maternity leave

A day after returning from maternity leave across the Pacific, the Samsung Lions foreign batsman produced a multi-hit performance. Samsung Lions foreign-born slugger David McKinnon showed his motivation a day after returning from maternity leave and laid the foundation for his team's victory.

Samsung, led by manager Park Jin-man, earned an 8-1 come-from-behind victory over the Lotte Giants of the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) at Sajik Stadium in Busan on Monday.

After giving up one run in the first inning with runners on second and third, Samsung's starter Won Tae-in pitched well until the sixth inning. From there, he was able to keep the game close. He went six innings, allowing one run on four hits with one walk and three strikeouts.

After Won Tae-in did his job, the bats came through with some help to earn their first win of the season. In the sixth inning, Kim Ji-chan, pinch-hitting with runners on first and second, hit a game-winning three-run home run. Kim added two more hits later in the inning to finish with a 3-for-4 performance.

Kim Heon-gon, who has been hitting well of late, went 3-for-3 with a two-run double, a home 토토사이트 run, two walks, two RBIs and three runs scored.

In addition, McKinnon, a foreign hitter who went on maternity leave to attend the birth of her second child after the Daegu SSG game on March 31 and returned home the previous day (March 8), did not get an RBI, but played as the No. 4 designated hitter and went 2-for-4 with a multi-hit game.

Before the game, manager Park Jin-man was considerate of McKinnon. "He came back yesterday and I checked his physical condition. Since he came to Korea yesterday, I thought he might have a little bit of pressure on his defense, so I put him in the designated hitter position," Park explained.

However, McKinnon himself showed motivation, saying, "I can also play defense." "He's motivated, but his body can be heavy, so I let him focus on hitting," Park said.

"We lacked a clutch hitter, and he was doing a good job of that before he left. His arrival gave me the confidence to play a big role in the center."

While McKinnon didn't contribute directly to the 온라인카지노사이트 score on the day, the batting lineup eventually exploded. It was a case of McKinnon proving to be a one-man show.

After the game, head coach Park Jin-man said, "Congratulations to Won Tae-in on his first win. He once again showed a strong performance for Lotte and paved the way for the team to win."

"The batting lineup was also able to take advantage of home runs by Kim Ji-chan and Kim Heon-gon, and the bold plays and aggressive behavior of the younger players have been a great source of energy for the team."

He also praised McKinnon's performance. "It must have been hard for him to come back and play away from home, but he did a good job at the plate," Park said. I want to praise him."

"To the fans who came to Sajik Stadium and supported us, we will continue to show them a good game," he added.

Samsung will look to extend their winning streak to four games on Tuesday. Lotte is expected to start Aaron Wilkerson.
