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

KIA beat the 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 Sep. 6. Starter James Naile pitched well with two runs over six innings, and Castro swung a hot bat with six RBIs as they swept the three-game set. They closed to a half-game behind the third-place LG Twins. KT, which dropped its third straight, fell 1.5 games back of first-place Samsung.
