Director Lee Kang-cheol came up with a ‘negotiable plan’ for a real battle inspection.
On the 24th (local time), the WBC team had their second practice match against kt wiz at Kino Stadium in Tucson, Arizona, USA. The national team played practice games two days in a row due to the deteriorating climate. On this day, they also won 4 consecutive matches with a 9-0 win. 메이저놀이터
However, what is more important than the result of the game is the sense of practice. To check this, coach Lee Kang-cheol put Yang Eui-ji, So-jun So, Kwak Bin, and Jeong Cheol-won on the kt lineup list. It was manager Lee Kang-cheol’s arrangement to make them see more balls and throw more.
In the national team, Park Se-woong, Jung Woo-young, Lee Yong-chan, Lee Eui-ri, Kim Yun-sik, and Won Tae-in took the mound, and all of them put the kt batting line to rest with no runs.
On the other hand, Joon Sohn, who took the mound as the opposing team, scored 4 runs in 2 innings, and Bin Kwak was shaken with 2 runs in 2 innings. Jeong Cheol-won faced seven batters in one inning. This is because coach Lee Kang-cheol put three more batters in the at-bat because he couldn’t throw a lot with good pitching. Manager Lee even praised Jeong Cheol-won by stroking his head as he came down from the mound.
The national team hitters boasted a hot hitting feeling by driving a total of 17 hits.
The stadium was also hot with support from local fans in the United States for the national team, which had already digested its 4th evaluation match. Family fans who made their own placards, foreign fans wearing Koh Young-pyo’s kt uniform, and father and son with Kang Baek-ho’s uniform spread out filled the audience.
