VIDEO: Aaron Altherr Crushes Home Run to Cap Huge NC Dinos 9th-Inning Comeback in KBO Action
By Michael Luciano
Someone break up the NC Dinos! Led by former Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Aaron Altherr, the Dinos completed an insane comeback against the Doosan Bears, as they scored nine runs in the ninth inning, three of which came on this Altherr blast, to earn a 12-6 win.
What. A. Comeback. ?

The Dinos (-150) score 9 in the 9th to win yet another game when coming from behind.

With the win, the Dinos move to 12-2 on the season, giving them the best record in the KBO.
Altherr looks more like the breakout slugger we saw in 2017 with the Phillies, as opposed to the guy who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. The KBO has done wonders for revamping his play.

Altherr might have fizzled out in the MLB, but he has been reborn in Korea, and he has his Dinos racing to the top of the KBO standings.
