Kia Tigers rode explosive firepower to a two-game winning streak.
On the 26th at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field, they won the 14th meeting of the 2026 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League against the Lotte Giants 16-11. Kim Do-yeong recorded four RBIs, including his 39th home run of the season, a three-run shot, and Castro hit a two-run homer and a grand slam. They efficiently combined 13 hits and 10 walks/hit-by-pitches to put up a big number. The momentum from the come-from-behind win in the bottom of the ninth the previous day continued. Lotte collected 20 hits (two walks) but fell into a three-game losing streak.
