There is a person who surprised Doosan Bears coach Lee Seung-yeop, who has been a pro for over 20 years, including his days in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB). It is Yang Eui-ji, the ‘master of Doosan’s house’.메이저사이트
Coach Lee recalled Yang Eui-ji’s hit scene in an away game against Kiwoom Heroes the previous day prior to the 9th game of the season against SSG Landers in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul on the 25th.
The scene the command tower mentioned was 1 out 1 base in the top of the 5th inning when the team was leading 6-4. Yang Eui-ji, who was driven to a ball count of 2-2, pushed Kiwoom pitcher Ha Young-min’s 5-ball slider and hit a right-handed hit that separated the first and second bases, and in the meantime, third base runner Jose Rojas settled on third base. Yang Eui-ui’s performance that day was 2 hits in 4 at-bats, his first multi-hit game since his return from injury.
Manager Lee Seung-yeop said, “I played a lot of baseball, but it was a good hit to the point of admiration.” How many of them are out of 100. That’s actually really hard.”
Next, coach Lee said, “Whether he intended or not, he can hit that way. Even though his physical condition is not perfect, he knows his condition perfectly and plays baseball.” He seems to know a bit about baseball, so I think he’s a smart player.” He smiled.
Yang Eui-ji broke away from the first-team entry on the 8th due to a muscle tear in his side, and after that, Doosan seldom accumulated a win with 3 wins and 7 losses in 10 games, and then collapsed to a 50% win rate. Although he was out for only two weeks due to an injury, Doosan desperately felt the absence of the main catcher.
Doosan, who finished 3 consecutive matches during the week with a sweep win with the joining of Yang Eui-ji, is now looking at a higher place. With 53 wins, 1 draw and 51 losses (0.510), they are narrowly defending 5th place, but they cannot be satisfied with their current position. Manager Lee Seung-yeop said, “Of course, meeting a lower-ranking team would have an impact, but I think it made a comeback and gained more strength in a situation where the team’s other lineup was losing. The problem is sustainability. In order to win the winning series, the batters and pitchers are in good shape. We have to show it,” he demanded the rest of the players to do their best.
