Trade Derby is successful. Finally, the first face-off will take place after exchanging uniforms.

KT Wiz and Samsung Lions will play three consecutive weekend games at KT Wiz Park in Suwon from the 28th. It is the first meeting since the two teams made a trade to trade big guns first baseman Park Byung-ho and Oh Jae-il.

On the 28th of last month, Samsung sent Oh Jae-il and received Park Byung-ho from KT. Born in 1986, the two were close friends and exchanged uniforms with each other.




Although they are close, they are lying if they don't care because they traded one-on-one, not with additional trade resources. Oh Jae-il hasn't watched TV or cell phone in a while since the trade", he confessed. Park Byung-ho became a hot topic when he hit consecutive home runs after the transfer, but he even learned a little late that his friend was doing well.

Unlike Park Byung-ho, Oh Jae-il's batting pace rarely recovered right after the transfer. However, since mid-June, good batting has been made little by little, and the team's desired appearances are coming out.

Oh Jae-il had a three-hit game against Incheon SSG Landers on the 27th. He showed hits, doubles and home runs. Oh Jae-il, who had a heavy hit against Keisho Shirakawa in the top of the first inning, came out as a leadoff hitter in the seventh inning and hit a double against Han Doo-sol. KT made 'Big Inning' that scored five runs in the seventh inning, and Oh Jae-il took the first step.




And he hit a wedge home run in the eighth inning. Oh Jae-il, who came out as the leadoff hitter again this time, hit a solo home run that virtually confirmed the victory against Baek Seung-gun. It was a performance that perfectly lived up to the belief of coach Lee Kang-chul, who was the fourth batter. The team also moved to Suwon home in a good mood after winning a big 16-8 victory. Oh Jae-il played his first three-hit game since moving to KT.

Samsung manager Park Jin-man excluded Park Byung-ho, whose batting pace has slowed recently, from the game against the LG Twins in Jamsil on the 27th. It was a spell to rest and find the rhythm again. Park Byung-ho took one at-bat as a pinch hitter and walked. Coach Park Jin-man said, `I will start tomorrow (28th) in Suwon game. I looked forward to Park Byung-ho's performance in a meaningful showdown, saying, "There will be a situation where we can increase our concentration."

The first match since the trade between the best defense first baseman and big-hitting batters, representing the league. Considering the situation of the two teams who want to continue their upward trend, it can be a confrontation with pride. Attention is drawn to Suwon.
