Nine-game hit streak, and five-game multiple hit streak, for Ju-won Kim. Future big leaguer.

⚽ NEW PLAYLIST ⚽ We've put together some of our favourite anthems that get the whole stadium singing. Listen on Spotify: https://bit.ly/4vlcrcg

Hyoung-woo Choi drove in three of Samsung’s four runs today, including the game winning sac fly, as the Lions move into a tie for second.

The Pitcher They Called God

Three home runs in three straight games for Baek-ho Kang. At this pace, he’s almost certain to be posted this offseason. Position remains a question mark, but if Kang signs with an MLB team he will be the first position player to be posted and signed from a team other than the Heroes.

Bo-gyoung Moon has battled injuries to start the season, but he’s back and heating up. He has hits in five of his past six games, including this blast today.

The Muscle Man is back in the lineup. A hit and two RBIs today.

534 for Jeong Choi

When I was young I would always ask my dad, "How do you hit that?" This is one of the ones where he'd say, "You don't."

The Secret Agent is a fantastic film, but getting Pictures of Ghosts as a special feature makes this a must-own.

A Baek-ho laser. 14th of the season. Kang is now slashing .322/.398/.571 and is on pace for his best season since 2021.

New York City under socialism …

“soulless cycle” sounds like a triumphant breakthrough during a moment of deep reflection, a No Age song breaking out at a new age retreat. Hear L’Rain’s explosive new single and the rest of Stereogum’s 5 Best Songs Of The Week. stereogum.com/2502093/the-...

Setting The Table for The Midseason 50 by Jarrett Seidler (@seidler.bsky.social)

OG Anunoby, New York Knicks

I was so out of it after last night’s game that I left the living room TV on and went to bed. My daughter woke up screaming for me. Totally confused why it was on and I wasn’t around. I now realize my kids believe if ever I’m spontaneously vaporized it will be while sitting in front of a TV.

Hanwha rode another stellar start from Ryu to a 5-1 victory against Kia. The Eagles are now in sole possession of fourth place despite having the shakiest pitching in the league. Ryu has lowered his ERA to 1.50, which would be his lowest ever in the KBO (including before he moved to MLB).

Down three runs, Bryce Eldridge sends San Francisco home happy with a walk-off grand slam.

Only today, I received a note from Pete Palmer that calls into question Anson's hit total for 1888. See: "Cap Anson’s Hit Total: Why has this number jumped around so much over the years?" at: ourgame.mlblogs.com/cap-ansons-h...

Do-yeong has caught fire

Maybe I’m crazy but I was born in NYC, have lived most of my life in NYC, and can’t remember a single instance of native New Yorkers giving two shits about transplants claiming to be “real” New Yorkers. Move to NYC. Embrace it. Be kind. You’re a New Yorker.

And the correct headline without the typo in Jee-ho’s name!

I’m so incredibly excited about this. Nobody knows the KBO better than Jee-ho. I hope some of you will join me.

Baek-ho Kang is May's KBO Player oft he Month

Don’t understand the World Cup? No problem. Try reading one of these books.

Monster game from Do-yeong Kim. Four hits, including two home runs. Kia gets a game back in the standings.

Won-jun Choi has been the story of the KBO this season. The 3rd overall pick a decade ago, Choi never put it together, bouncing around teams and only even qualifying for the batting title three times. This year he leads the league in WAR, BA, OBP, and Runs. MVP so far.

Fantastic game in Gwangju between Samsung and Kia. Min-ho Kang breaks a 2-2 tie in the 10th. A Samsung win keeps them in striking distance of first place.

Things got extra chippy between Kiwoom and Doosan. Something you almost never see in the KBO.

Still a long shot, but if Jung Hoo Lee makes an MLB All-Star team he'd be the first position player to do so after playing in the KBO.

Since May 22, Ju-won Kim has twice had four games in a row with multiple hits, and he added a three-game home run streak in that span. Future big leaguer.

Super stoked for this bundle @jingajik.bsky.social

Awful

Do-yeong is heating up again. Second home run in as many games. 16th on the season.
