Prior to the home game against the Hanwha Eagles at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 10th, SSG hosted the 'Dodramhandon Monthly MVP" award ceremony with Dodram Food (hereinafter referred to as Dodram).
Dodram and SSG operate the 'Dodramhandon Monthly MVP" program, which delivers 1 million won in prizes to pitchers and fielders with the best monthly performance, and have continued their social contribution activities with the selected Su-hoon players through the awards ceremony.
The two companies will set aside a total of 1 million won for donation activities, including a total of 500,000 won for each 250,000 won and 500,000 won for Dodram. The reserve will be used after the end of the season to contribute 'Love Side Dish' for the underprivileged in the community.
At the awards ceremony, pitcher Anderson and fielder Choi Jung, who have performed well over the past month, were selected as MVP in August, and Song Sam-kwon, head of Dodram's sales division, delivered 1 million won each to the two players.
Anderson pitched in six games in August, winning two games with a 3.38 ERA, and led his team to victory with an overwhelming pitching, especially with a personal record of 12 strikeouts in one game.
Choi Jeong played in 23 games during August, led the batting average with 0.264 23 hits and 18 RBIs, and tied for first place in monthly home runs in the KBO League in August with nine home runs.
Anderson, who was named MVP, said, `I'm happy to be named MVP for the second month in a row. We will continue our activities so that the team can advance to the postseason. I also hope the donation will be delivered to those in need,' Choi Jung-eun said. `I want to do my best to improve my team's performance in the rest of the game, and I want to help as many people as possible with better performances," he said.
Meanwhile, SSG and Dodram donated KRW 6 million, which was set aside as a prize for the 'Dodramhandon Monthly MVP" last year, to provide side dishes for underprivileged children in Incheon.
