Kim Do-young returned to the ground at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju, 34 days after suffering a hamstring injury. After suffering her first injury in the opening game of the season, she returned to the ground in about a month and sweated.

The first game of three consecutive weekend games between the KIA Tigers and the LG Twins took place at Gwangju Champions Field on Saturday. Kia, which was leading by a gap of 3 to 12 points, created a chance in the fourth inning.
In the fourth inning, leadoff hitter Lee Woo-sung got on base with a walk against LG starter Son Joo-young, who was playing well, opening the attack. Afterwards, Han Jun-su and Byun Woo-hyuk made two consecutive hits to create a chance to load the bases with no outs. Manager Lee Bum-ho used Kim Do-young, who returned from injury, as a substitute for Choi Won-jun's at-bat.
Kim took the batter's box for the first time in more than a month after suffering a hamstring injury in the first game of this season, and hit the curve ball on the outside of the first pitch without being greedy. The powerful hit passed through second baseman Shin Min-jae's glove and out to the outfield. In his first at-bat in the first team in 34 days, Kim showed off his presence and was replaced by pinch runner Park Jae-hyun.
Confident of a timely hit, Kim ran to the base and roared. KIA's offense continued, which brought the game to square one with pinch hitter Kim Do-young's timely hit, taking advantage of the chance to load the bases with no outs.
When Park Chan-ho was sent to the first and second bases with no outs, LG starter Son Joo-young's throwing error came out, creating another bases-loaded chance. Kim Sun-bin and Wisdom were later struck out, but after two outs, veteran Choi Hyung-woo hit a two-run double to turn the game around. LG starter Son Joo-young, who allowed Choi to turn the tables, came down from the mound without finishing the fourth inning.
Following pinch hitter Kim Do-young's timely hit, Choi Hyung-woo's timely hit came in succession, and KIA immediately turned the game around in the fourth inning.
KIA came from behind to defeat its opponent's starting pitcher in the fourth inning. In the sixth inning, starting pitcher Yang Hyeon-jong threw the mound to Jeon after causing crisis of loading the bases with no outs. In the ensuing match, Hong Chang-ki's RBI sacrifice hit and Moon Sung-joo's timely hit made KIA to tie the game. With his team poised to achieve 180 wins in total in the KBO, starting pitcher Yang had to promise his next move.
The score, which was 5 to 5, was broken in the eighth inning. With two outs and runners on the first and second bases, LG Shin Min-jae made a hit that exceeded KIA closer Jeong Hae-young's height. At this time, second baseman Kim Sun-bin grabbed a backhand and threw a glove toss, but passed Park Chan-ho's height, leading to a loss.
Kia allowed its team to come from behind due to its defensive errors at a critical moment. Kia lost six to five at the ninth inning by failing to strike LG closer Jang Hyun-sik, and ended up in a quagmire for three consecutive losses.
Kim Do-young, who played only one at-bat as a pinch hitter, left the stadium with a regretful look.
