Song Ji-Man (Hangul: 송지만, Hanja: 宋志晩) (born March 2, 1973 in Incheon, South Korea) is a South Korean former outfielder in the Korea Baseball Organization professional baseball league. He bats and throws right-handed.
Upon graduation from Inha University in Incheon, Song made himself eligible for the 1996 KBO Draft and was selected in the second round by the Hanwha Eagles.
In 1999, Song joined his first 20-20 club and became a member of the Korean Series championship team. In 2000, he joined his second 20-20 club, batting a career-high .338 and having his first 30+ home run season (32), and won his first Golden Glove Award after the season.
In 2002, Song posted career-highs in home runs (38) and RBI (104), and won his second Golden Glove Award. However, Song was hampered by arm injuries during the whole 2003 season, batting only .253 and hitting a career-low 9 home runs.
After the 2003 season, Song was traded to the Hyundai Unicorns. In 2004, he smacked 22 home runs and drove in 74 runs, and led his team to their last Korean Series champion. In 2005, Song had another solid season in the Unicorns, batting a respectable .271 and amassing 24 home runs and 74 RBI. After the 2005 season, he was selected as a member of the South Korea national baseball team and competed in the inaugural World Baseball Classic in March 2006.
