The KIA Tigers won 11-3 against the SSG Landers in the 2024 Shinhan Bank SOL Bank KBO League at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on Sunday.

The Kia bats pounded the SSG mound from the start of the game. Choi Hyung-woo went 2-for-3 with a double and three RBIs to become the second player in KBO history to reach 4,000 career hits, while Kim Sun-bin hit his second home run of the season, marking the first time he has homered in back-to-back games since making his KBO debut. Kim Do-young hit his sixth and seventh home runs of the season, going 4-for-5 with three doubles, two home runs, five RBIs, four runs scored, one walk and one stolen base.

Starter Will Crowe earned his fourth win of the season with five innings of three-hit, one-run ball, one walk and three strikeouts.

The bullpen of Kwak Do-gyu (1 run in ⅔ innings), Park Jun-pyo (1 run in 1⅓ innings), Lee Jun-young (1 run in 1 inning), and Kim Sa-yoon (1 run in 1 inning) preserved the win.

Manager Lee Bum-ho said in his postgame interview, “It’s a big win for us that we didn’t have to use the bullpen as the offense was active from the beginning of the game. Crowe was unable to pitch long innings due to muscle tightness, but he still did his part by throwing five scoreless innings. The bats came alive early in the game. Park Chan-ho, who made his first start in a long time, made the most of his opportunities, and Kim Do-young and Choi Hyung-woo were very good in the middle of the order. Congratulations to Choi Hyung-woo on becoming the second player in history to reach 4,000 runs. We were able to win the game because all the players played well. Thank you to everyone for their hard work, and thank you to the away fans for their support,” said Choi after the victory.
