I feel like a “small-level” rookie will be born in the KT Wiz. He has good ball power, strong game management, handsome and speaks well.메이저놀이터
The main character is Yuk Cheong-myung, a rising star who graduated from Gangneung High School and was nominated for the second round of KT. He throws a slider and change-up at a fastball that is close to 150 kilometers away, and in a nutshell, he is a fighting chicken. He does not mainly focus on breaking balls, but only looks at the center and throws it in.
Yuk Cheong-myeong, who quickly got the chance to start the game along with Won due to Ko Young-pyo’s injury and absence of the fifth starting pitcher, failed to win the previous three opportunities. He threw well but failed to receive support from the batters, and showed sluggish performance. And in just his fourth attempt, he acquired his first professional win that he had dreamed of.
Yuk Cheong-myung started the match against Kiwoom Heroes at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 4th and led the team to a 6-2 victory with five innings of one-run quality pitching. As a young pitcher with not much experience, he finished his mission with 67 pitches in five innings, but manager Lee Kang-chul also gave a thumbs-up to his strong pitching “without being scared.”
When asked how he felt about his first win in his dream after the game, Yuk said with a bright smile, “I thought we would all win similar games, but I feel much better.” He added, “I don’t think I can compare with the moments when I was happy playing baseball. I love it.”
They asked an official question about who came to mind the most for the first win. The answer that they expected came back. Yuk Cheong-myung said, “It’s my parents. They comforted me a lot when I lost the match against SSG Landers. They made me feel comfortable. As soon as I won my first win, I thought of my parents the most.”
What is your goal for the future? “KT’s starting lineup is empty right now, but seniors will come back. Until then, I want to play in a stable manner so that I don’t feel empty,” Yuk Cheong-myung said.
He may have played at the highest level in amateur league, but he is a professional. Yuk Cheong-myung said, “Batters’ aim and feel at bat are all different. Still, our catcher Jang Sung-woo has so much experience. As I followed the lead well, I was able to catch even difficult batters,” he humbly said.
Last but not least, Yuk said that he has always been that kind of personality since he was a child. Regarding the pitching style of guessing, he also said, “A starter is a position that you shouldn’t try to strike out. You should save as many pitches as you can,” showing an attitude that does not look like a rookie.
