Davison hit a home run in the top of the fifth inning in an away game against SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 31st. Davison, who faced a one-out, first and second base chance in the top of the fifth inning with NC leading 4-0, faced SSG starting pitcher Drew Anderson.
Davison, who had a foul on the first pitch and a swing on the second pitch, hit a 154km fastball on the third pitch and hit a 125M three-run home run deep into the center fence at Landers Field. The home run gave NC a 7-0 run.
It was Davison's 38th home run this season. Davison, who is the sole leader in the league's home run division, was recently being chased by Kim Do-young (KIA) and Choi Jeong (SSG). Davison has been silent without a home run in five games since he hit his 37th home run against KIA on August 23, while Kim Do-young has chased up to three home runs in the last two consecutive games. Choi Jung also hit his 33rd home run on the 29th and narrowed it down to four. Davison widened the gap again with his 38th home run.
Meanwhile, the NC club's record for most home runs in a season is 47 home runs achieved by Eric Thames in the 2015 season.
