KIA Tigers’ ‘baseball genius’ Kim Do-young will take on the last challenge to join the 40 (homer)-40 (stealing) club for the first time in Korea.토토사이트
Kim surprised baseball fans by displaying strong slugging power surpassing that of Essang this season, and ended this season by ranking second in homers. Naero hit more home runs than any other home run hitters. As she hit many doubles and triples with fast feet, her slugging rate was naturally the highest.
As he succeeded in stealing a lot with his fast feet, he achieved 40 steals against the Gwangju Samsung Lions on the 23rd. He hit his 38th home run that day, leaving only two home runs in the 40-40 club.
Although there are only five games left, expectations were high that baseball could hit more than two home runs in a game, so I could achieve a record at any time. Since he already won the regular league, he was able to hit for his record without burdening his team’s performance.
However, he hardly hit a homerun. As the first batter, he went to 18 times at bat in four games, but recorded six hits in 16 times at bat, and there were only some hits he caught while flying to a homerun-like hit.
As a result, he couldn’t reduce one by the final game against the NC Dinos in Gwangju on the 30th, and played his last game at home with 38.
Still, swinging with the support of 20,500 home fans as he takes the last challenge at his most comfortable home will be a good memory for KIA, Kim Do-young and fans, regardless of whether he achieves a record or not.
If you’re hopeful, Kim Do-young hit the most home runs with 16 in Gwangju. He hit four against NC. He hit the most home runs against Hanwha, which hit seven, and KT, SSG, Samsung, and Kiwoom, which hit five each. He hit three home runs against LG and Lotte, and one against Doosan, which hit the least. For NC, he didn’t hit too many home runs.
The starting pitcher for NC Dinosaurs is Son Joo-hwan, a right-hander of the year. After graduating from Korea Water Bank and Dong-A University, he joined the league as the 55th player in the sixth round. He pitched in three games for the first team this year, and had no hit, no run, and two strikeouts during two innings. He is not a fastball and two-pitch pitcher. He has an average fastball speed of 143.2 kilometers and an average slider of 127.8 kilometers. Kim Do-young could be seen as a fastball that is good enough to aim for a home run. If Son does not try to avoid being hit and goes head-to-head, it will be a good game because he has good ball control.
The number of innings in which Kim can expect a home run is in the first and fifth innings. This season, he hit the most home runs with eight in the fifth inning, and the second with seven in the first inning. Kim hit six in the third inning, five in the seventh inning, and four in the fourth and sixth innings, and three in the ninth inning and one in the eighth inning, and none in the second inning.
If limited to Gwangju, the most anticipated innings were the first and fifth innings. At the game in Gwangju, Kim hit four homers in the bottom of the first and fifth innings, respectively. After hitting three homers in the bottom of the sixth inning, Kim hit two in the bottom of the fourth inning, and one in the third, seventh and eighth innings, respectively. There were no homers in the bottom of the second and ninth innings.
Can Kim overcome the burden of setting a new record? Kim has hit so many home runs without being greedy for home runs. The homer he hit out of greed was a solo shot against Kim Sun-ki in the top of the fifth inning against the Gocheok Kiwoom on April 25. Since there was only one home run left in the monthly 10-10 club at the time, Kim said he wanted to hit a home run, and he actually hit one, making the record his own.
Not only KIA fans but also many Korean baseball fans are rooting for Kim to achieve 40-40 record. Just as Lee Seung-yeop of the Samsung Lions hit his 56th homer, the most in Asia, to become the best hitter in 2003, he hopes Kim will overcome the pressure of the great record and develop to become the best hitter who leads Korean baseball.
Winning or losing a game does not affect a team, either. Four to five times at bat, which is given as the first batter, may not come back to him that he can wield only for himself.
