It was a well-hit ball that allowed you to feel the home run at the moment you were hit.

Kim Do-young, who hit his 27th two-run homer of the season, is one step closer to the record of 30 homers and 30 steals as the youngest player.

Kim Do-young, who is aiming for the 30-30 milestone, now has only three home runs. There are 29 stolen bases in the season, with -1 remaining.
