The players who deserved it received their awards, and their teammates recognized their contributions.

NC Dinos selected pitcher Logan and infielder Park Min-woo as the club's June MVPs and held an award ceremony before the game against SSG Landers at Changwon NC Park on July 5 (Saturday). The players selected as MVP receive a prize of 1 million won.

NC determines the candidates based on recommendations from the coaching staff, and the players and on-site staff participate in voting to select the final award winners. The voting reflects not only simple performance but also dedication to the team and efforts made in unseen places.

Logan, selected as the MVP in the pitcher institutional sector, started in five games during June, pitching 33 innings with a record of 3 wins and 1 loss, and an earned run average of 1.91. He achieved a quality start (QS) in every game he pitched and led the team to victory with his career-high innings pitched during a game against Doosan on June 28 (8 innings, 1 run, unearned).

Park Min-woo, selected as the MVP in the batter institutional sector, participated in 21 games throughout June, recording a batting average of 0.369 (31 hits in 84 at-bats), 24 RBIs, an on-base percentage of 0.413, and a slugging percentage of 0.512, leading the NC lineup. In particular, after being placed in the third batting order starting from the game against Samsung in Daegu on June 6, he maximized scoring ability, accumulating the most RBIs in the KBO League for the month and serving as the team's problem solver.

Logan said, "I am honored to be selected as the team's June MVP, and I thank the club and my teammates. I believe this award is not just for me but for all my teammates, coaching staff, and club officials. I will repay this recognition with even better performances in the future. The most memorable game was the home game against Doosan on June 28. It was the first time I recorded 8 scoreless innings in Korea, and it is most memorable because I contributed to the team's victory."

He continued, "What I am satisfied with is that as a starting pitcher, I steadily pitched innings and contributed to the team's victories. There is nothing particularly disappointing. I will pitch at least 6 innings in the second half to help the team win." He emphasized, "In the early part of the season, it took some time to find my rhythm, but I am on an upward trend as planned. I believe this trend will rise even more in the second half, so I hope everyone will look forward to that. I know there were those who felt disappointed with my performance as a number one starter in the early season, and I am truly grateful for your support until I found my pace. I will repay you with even better performances in the second half."

Captain Park Min-woo said, "I thank everyone who selected me as MVP. The most memorable game was the home game against Doosan on June 27. My teammates did not give up until the end, and it was especially meaningful because we won in front of many fans." He added, "What I am satisfied with is returning to Changwon NC Park and regaining my routine. However, I feel I could not contribute more to the team's victories, separate from individual performance."

Regarding his performance in the first half, he reflected, "As the team's captain, I contemplate whether I was a sufficient support to my teammates. I tried, but there may have been shortcomings. I am grateful to my fellow players for following along well."

He stated, "I sincerely thank the fans who have always been a great strength to us despite the challenges this season. There may be some regrets, but the Dinos are a team that has the potential to reach even greater heights in the second half. I will do my best to meet the expectations of our fans."
