Song Chan-eui described himself as “surprised and happy” after hitting the first opposite-field home run of his baseball career, a go-ahead three-run shot that lifted the LG Twins to third place.
Song started as LG’s No. 4 hitter and left fielder in the game against the Doosan Bears at Seoul’s Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 1st. He came to the plate as the leadoff hitter in the second inning and initially flew out to left field.
His later three-run homer turned the game around and became the decisive hit for LG.
I was surprised and happy because it was the first opposite-field home run of my life.
