The KT Wiz defeated the Doosan Bears 6-2 in South Korean baseball. Ahn Hyun-min had two RBIs in his return from injury, and starter Ko Young-pyo pitched six innings. Sam Hilliard hit a two-run homer for the Wiz, who won their third straight game.
The Doosan Bears are on a five-series winning streak and have the best record in the KBO in June, holding the fifth and final postseason spot. Manager Kim Won-hyong acknowledges the team's improved play but emphasizes the season is far from over.
The Doosan Bears, currently fifth in the KBO, face a challenging week against the second-place KT Wiz and league-leading LG Twins. Despite their strong June performance, the Bears have struggled against these top teams this season.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will throw the first pitch at a Doosan Bears baseball game on June 7th, with Doosan Group Chairman Park Jeong-won taking the ceremonial first hit. The event, initiated by Huang's interest in Korean baseball, also includes discussions on AI and robotics collaboration between Nvidia and Doosan.

American left-hander Wes Benjamin has joined the Doosan Bears as a short-term replacement for injured Opening Day starter Chris Flexen, marking his return to the KBO after previous success with the KT Wiz from 2022-2024.

Benjamin was signed under a new KBO rule allowing teams to replace injured foreign players expected to miss at least six weeks.
