The Premier 12 baseball team, led by head coach Ryu Joong-il, played against the Dominican Republic at Taipei Tiananmen Stadium in Taiwan on the 16th. The national baseball team was dragged 0-6 by Dominica with only one hit until the top of the sixth inning.
After scoring four points based on Dominica's error in the bottom of the sixth inning, the team completed a big inning that scored five points again like a lie, overturning the 0-6 game to 9-6.
Park Sung-han's two-run triple in the bottom of the eighth inning with two outs and runners on the second and third bases was the final hit. Park Sung-han, who has an introverted personality, also shouted and cheered at his colleagues when the reverse hit broke out. He didn't forget the apartment ceremony and expressed his joy.

Park Sung-han made his professional debut in 2017 by SK (SSG's predecessor) as the 16th pick in the second round. He has played seven professional seasons and has a career batting average of 284. He joined the national team for the first time this season with a .310 on-base percentage and .38 percent on-base percentage. He expected to help the national team with a stable defense rather than a hit, but he is performing well with a batting average of 455 (5 hits in 11 at-bats), the highest among baseball team players.

It was the day when No. 8 hitter Park Sung-han wrote an unscripted drama that no one expected after two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning.
