"If Oh Jihwan gives you a present..."
Fans of the Kiwoom Heroes are enjoying baseball games this season. With better-than-expected performance, rookie fielders with high school graduates are spinning their bats without hesitation, which makes one smile like a father.
He went to the second division to calm down for a while due to "play walking on clouds," but Yeo started the exhibition game with an impressive home run. On top of that, he became the home run hitter at his fourth debut game in the KBO League. Jeon also had four hits in a game with "mature" hitting, which he couldn't believe was a high school graduate rookie. Yang Hyun-jong, who was in the first division instead of Yeo, also showed an unstoppable swing.
Eo Jun is also a must-have. He played as the first starter at an away game of the KIA Tigers in Gwangju, and became the home run batter of the KBO's fifth debut game after Yeo Dong-wook. In his first at-bat, he had his first hit against Kia Oler with a home run. He has four hits in 10 at-bats for four games, a batting average of .400, and three RBIs. He does not get scared and turns his bat aggressively even in a clutch situation. Manager Hong Won-ki, who is stingy about compliments, even admitted that there is a real possibility for the bat.
"I wasn't nervous even before my debut. I don't get nervous at all," Eo said with a smile. Technically, he said, "I was coached by Kim Tae-wan in the second division, and he achieved a broken balance in just one day. I'm grateful." He added, "It's my first time to do weight training that a professional player does for baseball after coming to the professional league. So the flying distance seems to increase naturally."
He is a 19-year-old young player full of spirit. When asked to introduce his strengths, he said, "I am good at defense, and I never lose to pitchers. I also rarely strike out. When it comes to defense, I am confident that I can field any hit that goes between the third base and the shortstop. Stable defense is my strength. I am confident in my shoulders." When asked if he is the MVP, he smiled shyly.
Then, who is their role model? Usually, rookie players choose a position similar to that of their seniors. Jeon also mentioned Song Seong-moon, and when asked to be honest, he changed to Oh Ji-hwan.
"Oh Ji-hwan," Eo said as if he had been waiting. "I started playing baseball because of Oh Ji-hwan, and my style is following Park Sung-han (SSG)." Eo made a name for himself as a shortstop who was good at hitting and defense during his high school days. Left-handed rookie shortstop often like Oh Ji-hwan, who played as LG's main player when he was young. 스포츠토토
Oh Ji-hwan is a junior at a junior high school in Gyeonggi Province. When asked if he went to school because he liked Oh so much, he said, "Not that bad. Somehow." He gave me a sense of relief.
