Jae-gyun Hwang (Korean: 황재균; Hanja: 黃載均; born July 28, 1987) is a South Korean former professional baseball infielder. He played in the KBO League for the Hyundai Unicorns, Nexen Heroes, Lotte Giants, and KT Wiz, and in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the San Francisco Giants.
Career
Hyundai Unicorns/Nexen Heroes
Hwang made his KBO League debut in Hyundai Unicorns in 2007. The team folded after his rookie season, and became the Nexen Heroes, for whom he played from 2008 to 2010.
Lotte Giants
The Heroes traded Hwang to the Lotte Giants from 2010, and he continued to play for the Giants through the 2016 season. Hwang attracted international attention for a bat flip in July 2015, after he hit a game-tying home run in the ninth inning against the NC Dinos.
In October 2015, Hwang announced that he had asked the Giants to post him for transfer to Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States. His teammate, Ah-seop Son, also asked to be posted. No MLB team placed a bid for Hwang.
