“Pitcher Choi Joon-yong was number one in home run power rather than Han Dong-hee, Noh Si-hwan, and Jeon Eui-san,” a high school classmate’s surprising revelation

‘Big Boy’ Lee Dae-ho (former Lotte) left a splendid record until last year and retired.

Han Dong-hee is considered as the successor to his success at Lotte. Within Lotte, it is Han Dong-hee, but by widening the range, there are many prospects in Geopo among Lee Dae-ho’s juniors at Gyeongnam High School.

Han Dong-hee also graduated from Gyeongnam High School, and Hanhwa Noh Si-hwan and SSG Jeon Eui-san also graduated from Gyeongnam High School. Jeon Eui-san and Gyeongnam High School classmate Lee Joo-hyung of LG met reporters at LG Champions Park in Icheon on the 17th and boasted Lotte pitcher Choi Jun-yong’s power during an interview. Choi Joon-yong is also a colleague with Lee Joo-hyung and Jeon Ui-san.

While talking about the players who are doing well among the motives for joining, Lee Joo-hyung mentioned Choi Jun-yong and said, “Jun-yong has been good since he was young. He’s always good, so there’s no rivalry. It’s just Junyong wow~, it feels like I’m looking at (Kim) Hyunsoo sunbaenim. Jun-yong is also good at hitting the bat.”

When Lee Joo-hyeong, Jeon Eui-san, and Choi Jun-yong were in the first year of Gyeongnam High School, Han Dong-hee was in the third year and Noh Si-hwan was in the second year. Lee Joo-hyung said, “I was with Dong-hee and Si-hwan, but Jun-yong hit farther than the two brothers. (Gyeongnam High School) If we talk about the three Geopo, they are Donghee hyung, Sihwan hyung, and Uisan. Junyong hit the furthest. He hit really well,” he said with a laugh.

In free batting, Choi Jun-yong’s long hitting power seems to have been great. There is no official record of Choi Jun-yong playing as a hitter in high school. In his senior year of high school, he went 2-1 in 7 games with an ERA of 2.08, and in 23 games in his high school career, he went 7-1 with an ERA of 1.66. He threw 65 innings, giving up 36 hits, 1 home run, 30 walks and 89 strikeouts. 카지노사이트

Han Dong-hee joined the Lotte 1st nomination in 2018, and Roh Si-hwan joined the Hanwha 2nd 1st round (3rd overall) in 2019. In 2020, Choi Jun-yong joined the Lotte 1st round, Jeon Eui-san joined the SSG 2nd 1st round (10th overall), and Lee Joo-hyung LG 2nd 2nd round (13th overall).

Lee Joo-hyung, who is about to be discharged from the military, met his friend Jeon Eui-san during winter vacation. Eui-san Jeon debuted in the first team last year and recorded a batting average of .249 (60 hits in 241 bats), 13 homers, 45 RBIs, 36 runs, slugging percentage of .481, and OPS of .797 in 77 games. 1 hit in 3 at-bats in 3 games in the Korean Series.

Lee Joo-hyung said, “Uisan’s body got bigger compared to when he was in high school. He says he’s muscular, but when I saw him, he looked like flesh,” laughing and saying, “Since he hit 13 home runs and won a championship in the first team, I asked a lot of questions. I came to the pro and couldn’t play in front of an audience, so I was curious about that too… ” he said. 

Lee Joo-hyung had a batting average of 3.56 (31 hits in 87 at-bats), 4 homers, 22 RBIs, 23 walks and 11 strikeouts in the 2nd group in 2020. Even in 2021, he had a batting average of 3.3 in the second team, and then enlisted in active duty in September. If he is discharged on the 22nd, he will join the 2nd Army Rehabilitation Camp and start building his body step by step.
