Moon Bo-kyung (24), the fourth batter of the LG Twins in the professional baseball league, expressed her eagerness for the national flag. “I can also be a first baseman. I can also practice second base,” Moon, who is in charge of third base in his team, said of the competition with outstanding candidates such as KIA Kim Do-young and Kiwoom Song Seong-moon.메이저놀이터
As of Tuesday, Moon has a batting average of 0.294 (148 hits in 504 at-bats) with 20 homers and 93 RBIs. He is ranking second in RBIs after Austin Dean (129 RBIs), and second in homers after Austin (32).
Moon Bo-kyung, who made her professional debut in the first team in 2021, has been in charge of four times since the second half of this year, her fourth year as a professional, and has also hit 20 home runs. In the second half of the year, she has been performing better than in the first half (batting rate of 0.282 10 home runs and 45 RBIs) with a batting average of 0.310 home runs and 10 home runs.
Moon Bo-kyung, who won the gold medal as a member of the Hangzhou Asian Games last year, expressed her willingness to participate in the WSBC Premier 12 in Taiwan in November.
Currently on the preliminary list, he has to compete with prominent candidates such as Kim Do-young and Song Sung-moon.
Kim Do-young is performing as an “MVP” this year with a batting average of 0.344,179 hits, 37 homers, 105 RBIs, 135 runs, and 39 steals. Song also boasts a batting average of 0.339, 170 hits, 18 homers, 100 RBIs, and 81 runs scored.
“I can also play first base,” Moon said with a big smile. “As you know, I was also at first base at the Asian Games. I can practice second base if I’m available. Whatever position I’m in, I really want to play.”
Despite receiving military service benefits through the Asian Games gold medal, Moon Bo-kyung explained that his experience on the international stage is valuable.
“(International competitions) are an opportunity to hit the balls of good pitchers from other countries,” he said. “I could feel that there are such pitchers in the world. For example, Taiwanese pitchers also played very well. I want to face good pitchers like that.”
Moon Bo-kyung, who is playing all 140 games this season, showed a strong sense of responsibility despite his tight schedule.
“We have four games left until the regular season,” he said. “We will finish well and prepare for autumn baseball and end the season at a high place as much as possible.”
