Outfielder Yoon Dong-hee (20), a sophomore in the professional baseball Lotte Giants, has opened up his potential as a new leadoff hitter for the giants. Based on his excellent batting ability, running base ability, and defensive ability, Yun Dong-hee is steadily strengthening his position as a central player in his team by playing his role in his team.
Lotte won 15-4 in the 13th game of the season against SSG Landers held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 17th. Lotte swept all 3 home matches against SSG and ran 4 consecutive wins with a sweep win. Lotte continued its upward trend by winning its first sweep win against SSG since the founding of SSG (March 2021). Lotte has never won a sweep win since SSG was founded. Lotte won an emotional sweep in 5 years and 2 months since June 2018, when it was SK Wyverns, the predecessor of SSG.

Yoon Dong-hee became the protagonist of the RBI in the 8th inning. Yoon Dong-hee called team seniors Noh Jin-hyuk and Jung-hoon home with a double through left-center in the 8th inning.
Yoon Dong-hee has definitely established himself as Lotte’s central hitter this season. Lotte coach Larry Sutton highly praises Yoon Dong-hee’s batting ability and is appointing Yoon Dong-hee as a starting player.
Yoon Dong-hee recently improved his sense of hitting and raised his batting average for the season to 0.303 (83 hits in 274 at-bats) until the game on the 17th. If Yoon Dong-hee fills the required at-bats, it is expected that he will compete for first place in the individual team batting average with team seniors Ahn Chi-hong and Jeon Jun-woo, and junior Kim Min-seok.
