Samsung Lions' prospect Kim Baek-san to make second start

Samsung Lions' promising right-handed prospect Kim Baek-san is preparing for his second career start in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) League. The team has announced Kim as the starting pitcher for the second game of their three-game road series against the Kiwoom Heroes, scheduled for July 22nd at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul.

This outing is crucial for the Lions as they aim to secure a winning series against the Heroes and extend their road winning streak to two games. The previous game saw starter Choi Won-tae unable to complete five innings, highlighting the need for a strong performance from Kim.

Kim Baek-san, at 22 years old, represents a significant investment in the team's future. His development is closely watched, with hopes that he can become a cornerstone pitcher for the Lions. This second start provides another opportunity for him to demonstrate his potential and contribute to the team's success.
