KT Wiz infielder Heo Kyeong-min, a 35-year-old veteran, proved his worth by hitting his first grand slam since joining the team, playing a pivotal role in their 7-3 victory over the SSG Landers. The game took place at the SSG Landers Field in Incheon.

Starting as the cleanup hitter at third base, Heo Kyeong-min went 1-for-3 with a home run, four RBIs, one run scored, and two walks. His performance was a significant turnaround from his previous batting average of 0.358, culminating in the crucial grand slam that powered the Wiz to a much-needed win.
