Lotte Giants' Na Seung-yeop started as the first baseman and fifth batter in the fourth game of the season between the Hanwha Eagles and the team in the 2025 Shinhan Bank SOL Bank KBO League at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 24th, and played 1 hit and 2 RBIs in 4 at-bats.온라인바카라

Lotte became the victim of the team's first starting win in eight consecutive games in 662 days in a showdown with the Hanwha Eagles on the 23rd. It is not possible to give up the game even on the 24th. Na Seung-yeop was in the vanguard of blocking Hanwha's nine consecutive wins. On the day, Na struck out Hanwha starter "Korean Monster" Ryu Hyun-jin in the bottom of the second inning when his team was losing 0-3, and was unable to use his strength by striking out even when there was no runner with two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning.

As such, Ryu's command to penetrate every corner of the strike zone was overwhelming. Na was not easy, either. At the bottom of the sixth inning, when his team was losing 1-3, a full base meal was served with one out. At the second and third bases, Ryu threw Victor Reyes, who had 202 hits last year, to four pitches on purpose, and chose to compete with Na. Na Seung-yeop played the role of troubleshooter.

Na Seung-yeop pulled Ryu Hyun-jin's 134-km changeup on the first pitch and connected it with a timely two-run tie heading in front of right field. The situation did not end there. Na Seung-yeop's hit extended Lotte's chances to score first and third base, and Jeon Joon-woo, the follow-up hitter, brought in a runner on third with a ground ball to make it 4-3. And Lotte added another run on offense in the bottom of the eighth inning, sealing its win streak by defeating the Hanwha Eagles by 5-3.

Thanks to Na Seung-yeop's performance, "Glasses Ace" Park Se-woong was able to get out of the crisis of defeat and hold the winning requirements in his hands, and he won five consecutive games this season. In particular, Park Se-woong, who was very weak against Hanwha with 1 win and 10 losses and a 7.56 ERA, tasted the joy of winning against Hanwha for the first time in 1,100 days since the match against Sajik Hanwha on April 20, 2022.

How did you feel when Reyes automatically walked to the fourth pitch? When meeting reporters after the game, Na Seung-yeop said, "I thought I would skip it. I thought I might skip it. "The first base was empty, and I was a bit surprised because I was weak (against Ryu Hyun-jin). But I didn't get angry (against Ryu Hyun-jin). I thought I should hit the first pitch."

Na's strategy was to swing at the first pitch. "I started the game for the first pitch, but I didn't aim for the first pitch," he said. "If the count is too high, Ryu Hyun-jin throws it so well, so I thought if it is too high, I will be at a disadvantage. So I entered the batter's box thinking that I should hit him when I saw him. I was confident." In other words, being struck out by Ryu's pin point control in his first and second at-bat was the driving force behind his aggressive performance in his third at-bat.

After Park Se-woong gave up three runs in the second inning, Lotte players gathered in a circle around its captain, Jeon Joon-woo. And the captain sent a message to the players, saying, "It's still early days, so let's calm down. We can win no matter what." The captain's leadership shone through as he lost a lot of points from the beginning of the game for two consecutive days, and the players did not give up.

"[Former] Jun-woo is 0-3, but he can win unconditionally. Let's follow him step by step," Na Seung-yeop said, adding, "We don't have consecutive losses these days. Even before today's game, we talked about 'Never losing consecutive games'. Especially, Hanwha has been on the rise recently, and it's good to be able to stop consecutive wins against Hanwha, which has a good atmosphere."

On the day, Na showed off his unrivaled presence not only in offense but also in defense. He stably snatched all the throws from third baseman Sohn Ho-young and shortstop Jeon Min-jae, and handled even a straight hit in the ninth inning to secure net defense, contributing to his team's victory. However, Na said, "Park Se-woong threw so well that we have a chance to attack today. A three-point gap can be overturned as much as possible. We also have a chance because Se-woong threw well," giving credit to starting pitcher Park Se-woong.
