It’s one of the most talked-about plays in the first half of baseball this season.토스카지노
It’s a ground home run by LG’s Austin.
Reporter Park Jae-woong met Austin, who is stealing the hearts of LG fans with his determination and passion.
The moment the opposing centre fielder dropped the ball, Austin took off running.
Throwing down his helmet, Austin raced past third base and home, evading Yang’s tag with a picturesque slide.
A ground home run followed by a spectacular ceremony.
It only took 15 seconds to ignite the hearts of LG fans.

“It’s fun to play baseball in Korea, and I’m happy to have a passion for the game that was briefly lost in the past.”
From his trademark ritual of gathering his teammates together to tap their feet after every win, to being the first to run onto the field and unintentionally clearing the bench.
With his infectious enthusiasm, he’s quickly become a mood setter at LG.

“When I watched it again, I realised I looked a bit stupid. I ran out to protect Park Dong-won and his teammates, but when I got out, it was nothing.”
There were also some familiar faces in a foreign land.
Hanwha’s new foreign player Williams, a friend since their teenage years.
The advice she gave her best friend was also Austrian.

“Austin and I have been friends since we were 15 or 16 years old. He told me that I should have fun in the KBO so I can do well.”
Austin leads the team’s offence with a bat as hot as his passion.
He continues to play for bigger dreams.
“I hate losing, and when I go home after a loss, I feel like I’ve been punched in the stomach. I know LG hasn’t won the Korean Series since 1994. I know what winning means to LG fans, so I’ll give it everything I’ve got.”
