Foreign players who have recently entered the KBO League recognize that they can succeed only by respecting culture and actively learn Korean, Korean, and Korean etiquette. They think that they should respect that culture because they are playing in different cultures.

Austin, who is in his third year in the KBO, is well aware of this Korean style of etiquette. In particular, he understands the culture of respect and courtesy toward seniors.

LG Austin's polite attitude and extraordinary affinity were seen in the exhibition game of the "2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League" held at Suwon KT Wiz Park in Gyeonggi Province on the 9th.

In the top of the first inning, LG Twins' Austin stepped on the third base when Kim Hyun-soo grounded out to the second base. And he gave a big hug to KT's third baseman Huh Kyung-min. Hur was a Doosan player until last year and was a family of two members, LG and Jamsil. Even though the teams are different, the players of both teams are close to each other because they share the same home ground, and Austin and Hur are in the same way. Austin greeted Hur with his unique affinity to congratulate and encourage him, who is starting anew at KT.

And in the top of the fourth inning, he was able to see Austin's polite manner. KT manager Lee Kang-chul put Choi Dong-hwan on the mound as relief pitcher following starting pitcher Oh Won-seok in the top of the fourth inning. After graduating from Inheon Elementary School, Sunrin Middle School, and Kyungdong High School, Choi was designated as the 13th in the second round of the 2009 KBO Rookie Draft, and played for the LG Twins for 16 seasons until last year. However, his first game after moving to KT was his home team, LG.

Choi Dong-hwan, who is facing LG batter on the mound, prepared the pitching with an awkward smile. Then, Austin took off his helmet and bowed his head 90 degrees to greet his senior players. It was manners to a senior player who had played only for LG for 16 years. Surprised, Choi took off his hat and greeted Austin. Austin is a foreign player, but he has already learned Korean manners to respect his senior players.

Meanwhile, Austin's positive energy and passion have a great impact on the team. On the ground, Austin is very passionate and competitive. His energetic performance always makes the LG dugout excited and smile.
