“I didn’t want to see him cry.”
October 27, 2022. The protagonist of Game 3 of the playoffs was Kiwoom closer Kim Jae-woong. In the top of the 8th inning, leading 6-4, Kim Jae-woong cleared Moon Bo-kyung’s short bunt ball with a diving catch from 1st and 2nd base, then got up like a tumbler, threw to 2nd base, and caught 2 outcounts at once.
It was a great scene in the fall of 2022 baseball, but history is divided into winners and losers. Moon Bo-gyeong, bowing her head at Kim Jae-woong’s super play, went back to the dugout and cried. And the coach who witnessed such an appearance confessed that he really did not want to look like that.
Hitting coach Lee Ho-jun is in his second season at LG. The training atmosphere and system of LG, which coach Lee Ho-joon has been through for the past year, was quite good. Individual body care was also good. He said that if he went back to his playing days, he would want to play for LG.
On the 3rd (Korean time), San Francisco Giants Baseball Stadium in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA. Hitting coach Lee Ho-jun and Mo Chang-min continued their T-bar batting training. On the 2nd, Song Chan-eui was the main character, but on this day, Moon Bo-gyeong had time to check and correct the swing path. He swung exactly 25 times without breaking a sweat like Song Chan-i.
Coach Lee gave the ball to Moon Bo-kyung and talked to him like Chan-eui Song. When Moon Bo-kyung became an impact head-up, she started the engine saying, 메이저놀이터 “My neck is broken,” and said, “Moon Bo-kyung was one of the two people who didn’t call me last Lunar New Year.”
Then, he immediately recalled the events of the day. “I really hated seeing Moon Bo-kyung shed tears,” she said. Afterward, she blew out a bold (?) six-headed character. I can’t express it in an article, but that much coach Lee hated seeing Moon Bo-kyung shed tears. Moon Bo-kyung, who was T-batting, focused on her training even though she put on a puzzled expression on her face.
Coach Lee said, “After being at LG for a year, the players are working hard and I like it, but they are too soft. If the coach says something, you should try to jump over it, but you bow down there. You shouldn’t look weak.” LG can be strong enough, but honestly diagnosed that it showed a little lacking.
In other words, I wanted Moon Bo-kyung to show a more dignified appearance even if he failed to bunt. Even if it was a crucial mistake, she expected her to express her ‘strong mentality’, saying that she could succeed next time even while writing evil. Coach Lee said, “One bunt can fail. From there, the flow completely passed to Kiwoom.”
