Doosan Bears player Park Jun-seok is on a remarkable hitting streak, launching consecutive home runs in recent games. On June 25, Park hit a decisive solo home run in the seventh inning, leading his team to a 5-3 victory over the Hanwha Eagles in Daejeon.

This marks Park's second consecutive game with a home run, following a two-run blast the previous day. His performance has drawn attention, especially considering he was recovering from a thigh injury that had sidelined him for a month.

When asked about his recent success during his recovery period, Park attributed it to rigorous upper body weight training. "I did a lot of upper body weight training," he stated, suggesting that his focused training regimen has paid off significantly.

Park's resurgence is a welcome development for the Doosan Bears, as his powerful hitting provides a significant boost to the team's offense. His ability to perform at such a high level after an injury highlights his dedication and the effectiveness of his training.
