Kia Tigers made the strong KT Wiz weep for three straight days. However, Kim Do-yeong's bid to become the youngest to hit 40 home runs was thwarted.

Kia beat KT Wiz 8-3 in the 12th meeting between the teams in the 2026 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field on the 6th.

KT, which dropped its third straight, fell 1.5 games behind first-place Samsung.
