“No More than 4 People in the Outfield”… KBO Distributes Rule Change Guide to Clubs

 

Description of changes such as automatic ball judgment and defensive shift restrictions

The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) distributed information materials containing regulations and rule changes for 2024 to 10 professional baseball clubs. 바카라사이트

On the 6th, the KBO said, “We have included in the information materials key information regarding the Automatic Ball Decision System (ABS), base size expansion, and defensive shift restrictions that will be implemented from the 2024 season,” and “pitch clock regulations piloted in the KBO League and the Futures League.”

“We also provided guidance on the rule introduced by pitchers against three batters.”

The KBO League faces big changes this year.

Strike and ball decisions are made using ABS instead of referees, and the size of the base is also increased.

Defensive shifts are also suggested based on the base and inner/outfield.

At the site, concerns were expressed about adapting to the changed regulations.

The KBO said, “In the guidance material, we specified the standards for the top, bottom, and left and right of the strike zone in relation to ABS operation.

We also described in detail the judgment method in case of system defects,” and added, “To facilitate visual understanding, we included video data of pitches from actual KBO league games along with graphic materials.

“I attached it,” he said.

He added, “In addition to the explanation, we also attached a graphic regarding the restrictions on defensive shifts, dividing the applicable defensive positions from those that cannot be applied.”

The guidance material states, ‘To be considered a strike, a strike must meet the upper and lower height standards at both the middle and end surfaces of home plate.

The upper standard is 56.35% of the player’s height, and the lower standard is 27.64% of the player’s height.

A detailed explanation was attached, such as ‘For a player with a height of 180cm, the upper 101.43cm and the lower 49.75cm are applied as the strike zone.’

KBO said in its guidance material, “The ABS decision result is final, and no objection or protest can be made regarding it.

If smooth ABS operation is impossible due to equipment or system defects, errors, or other force majeure circumstances, the referee’s ball-strike decision is made.

It also introduced the management of the game, such as “It will be operated as an alternative.”

Regarding defensive shift restrictions.

The defensive team must have at least 4 players in the infield, and 2 infielders must be located on each side of the second base base.

When the pitcher is standing on the pitching board, 4 infielders must be in the infield.

Must be within the soil boundary.

If the infielders are not properly aligned when pitching, the attacking team can select an automatic ball or hitting result.

The outfielder’s positional movement is not restricted, but specific explanations were given, such as that more than 4 outfielders cannot be placed.

KBO plans to hold face-to-face briefing sessions for players in the future to help them understand.

Professional Basketball KT Sweeps Sono this Season with 5 Consecutive Wins… Securing Second Place

 

Suwon KT, a professional basketball team, won all 5 games against Goyang Sono this season.

KT defeated Sono 92-89 in the 2023-2024 CheongKwanJang Professional Basketball Regular League away game held at Sono Arena in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province on the 5th.

KT won all 5 games against Sono this season and maintained second place with 25 wins and 13 losses. 카지노

Sono, who suffered five consecutive losses to KT this season, recorded 13 wins and 26 losses, falling one place to 9th place.

From the beginning of the first quarter, KT cut off the opponent’s attack with blocks and steals and consistently took advantage of scoring opportunities to advance to 8-0.

However, they allowed consecutive 3-point shots to Chinanu Onuaku and a fast break score to Jeong-Hyun Lee, ending the first quarter trailing 21-25.

In the second quarter, Suwon KT took advantage of the opponent’s turnover and chased down to a one-point gap when Paris Bass dunked, but the gap quickly widened to eight points as Sono Kim Min-wook scored three points in a row.

KT chased after Sono again thanks to the performance of Jeong Sung-woo, who scored 7 consecutive points, including an outside shot, and finished the first half with a 43-47 score.

KT, who was desperate, turned the tide in the third quarter with Bass and Ha Yoon-ki, who occupied the outside and under the goal, respectively.

Bath scored 14 points in this quarter alone, including two 3-pointers, and Ha Yoon-gi scored with an additional free throw following a fast break layup.

Bass, Moon Seong-gon, and Ha Yoon-gi scored in succession, and KT entered the fourth quarter with a 70-67 lead.

In the final quarter, KT gradually tilted the game by causing Sono’s turnovers at key moments and directly leading to their own goals.

Seong-woo Jeong stole Park Jong-ha’s ball and scored on a fast break to increase the score, and Bath finished the ball stolen by Moon Seong-gon with a powerful one-handed dunk.

4 minutes and 35 seconds before the end of the game, Ha Yoon-ki’s dunk after an organic pass brought the lead up to 8 points, and 2 minutes and 59 seconds before the end of the game, Bass hit a 3-pointer at the rim, pouring cold water on Sono’s pursuit.

KT allowed Lee Jeong-hyun’s outside shot 51.9 seconds before the end to catch up, but the game was decided by free throws by Ha Yoon-gi and Moon Seong-gon at 17.0 seconds and 9.8 seconds before the end.

For KT, Bass was outstanding with 28 points and 8 rebounds, and Ha Yoon-ki shone with 25 points and 8 rebounds.

For Goyang Sono, Lee Jeong-hyun struggled with 27 points and 9 assists.

Jesse Lingard Really Came to Korea, Joining FC Seoul

‘Former Manchester United’ Jesse Lingard Really Came to Korea… Joining FC Seoul ‘Right Before our Eyes’

 

Manchester United’s 200th total appearance, England national team spearhead, converted to free agency due to poor performance and injury last season, 2-year contract extended by 1 year, K-League 1’s highest salary.

If the transfer is completed, he will be ‘the best foreign player in K-League history’ 온라인카지노

Midfielder Jesse Lingard (32), who played for Manchester United (Manchester United, England) and the England national team, visited Korea to go through the process of joining K League 1 FC Seoul.

When Lingard arrived at Incheon International Airport wearing a black hoodie and a hat on the afternoon of the 5th, about 200 fans who had gathered at the gate three hours ago chanted his name ‘Jesse’.

Lingard waved goodbye and signed autographs for fans who brought Manchester United and FC Seoul uniforms.

Previously, he posted a picture on his social network service (SNS) of waiting to check-in his luggage at the airport with Korean Air, hinting at his ‘bound for Seoul’.

Lingard is scheduled to enter final negotiations to join FC Seoul.

It has been reported that a significant portion of the agreement has already been reached.

On the 2nd, Britain’s Sky Sports reported, “It is understood that they have agreed to a verbal contract that includes a basic two-year contract with a one-year extension.”

The annual salary is estimated to be around 1.5 to 2 billion won, the highest level in K League 1.

If negotiations proceed without a hitch, Lingard will undergo a health checkup on the 6th, sign a contract on the 7th, and then meet Korean fans for the first time at a press conference on the 8th.

After the introductory press conference, he is expected to join the FC Seoul squad, which is undergoing field training in Kagoshima, Japan, and begin teamwork in earnest.

Among foreign players who have played on the Korean professional soccer stage, Lingard is evaluated as the best of all time in terms of ‘name value’ alone.

Lingard, a former Manchester United youth player, gained experience on loan to Birmingham City, Brighton, and Derby County before making his English Premier League (EPL) debut in 2015.

He has over 200 career appearances for Manchester United through the 2021-2022 season.

He played 32 games for the England national team and scored 6 goals, especially helping the team advance to the semifinals at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

Lingard left Manchester United and moved to Nottingham Post ahead of the 2022-2023 season, but was released as a free agent last summer due to poor performance and a hamstring injury.

Unable to find a team even after the new season began, he explored transfers to Saudi Arabia and Turkiye, but then accelerated negotiations with FC Seoul.

Jesse Lingard’s last official appearance was as a substitute in the 88th minute of the second half of a league game against Manchester United in April last year.

As he faces a gap of nearly a year in actual play, the key is whether his soft landing at FC Seoul can be successful.

‘He Really Came’ Former Manchester United Midfielder Lingard Enters the Country… “Score 20 Goals”

 

Former England national team midfielder Lingard is imminent to join K-League 1 FC Seoul.

In response to fan requests, he provided exciting fan service such as autographs and photo shoots even before joining the club.

“10 goals is a must, and I hope he scores 20 goals.”

Former England national team midfielder Jesse Lingard (31), who is about to join FC Seoul in the professional soccer K League 1, has entered the country. 카지노사이트

Lingard arrived in Korea through Incheon International Airport on the afternoon of the 5th.

When Lingard, wearing a black hoodie and black cap, appeared at his arrival hall, about 200 fans waiting for him cheered and chanted ‘Jessie’.

Lingard was momentarily taken aback as if he had not expected the huge crowd welcoming him, but then responded with a smile and a wave.

Lingard approached the fans who were chanting his name, signed his uniform, readily accepted the fan’s request for a photo, and quickly left the airport under the guidance of club officials.

Lingard is an attacking midfielder who also played for the England national team, and is a star player who played over 200 games for Manchester United (Man Utd), a famous English Premier League (EPL) team.

Lingard, who received news that he would challenge the K-League stage through Seoul Wool, entered the country on this day and concluded final negotiations with the club.

He will then undergo a medical test on the 6th and sign the final contract on the 7th.

The plan is to exchange first greetings with Korean fans at an introductory press conference on the 8th, then join the Seoul team that is training in Kagoshima, Japan, and begin strengthening in earnest.

Lingard posted on his social media this morning that he would check in his luggage at the Korean Air counter at Heathrow Airport in London, England and go to Korea soon.

When news broke that Lingard would arrive in Korea this afternoon, numerous fans gathered at the arrival hall, wearing Seoul uniforms and holding mufflers in their hands, forming a long line about two hours before he showed up.

Kim Min-seong (16), who waited for Lingard for over two hours with high dreams of winning, said, “When the news that he was coming to Seoul appeared, I couldn’t believe it and it felt like a dream,” and emphasized, “There is a 99% chance of winning this year.”

Wearing a red Seoul uniform, he smiled brightly and said, “I think Jesse Lingard will definitely score 10 goals.

I hope he scores up to 20 goals.”

Likewise, Lee Jae-hoo (19), who came to the airport with two acquaintances wearing a Seoul uniform, said, “I heard that Lingard is coming into the country today, but as a Seoul fan, I couldn’t sit still, so I came to the airport.”

He added, “The value of the name Lingard is strong in my heart.

“I was stuck,” he said.

Mr. Kim, who said he will ‘blow the flute’ like his symbolic ceremony when Lingard walks out of the arrival hall, said, “Seoul is a team that always challenges for the championship, and Lingard’s arrival will have an impact on increasing the number of spectators and heightening the atmosphere at the stadium.”

“I’m really looking forward to the season,” he said, unable to hide his excitement.

Professional Basketball Leader DB Wins by 35 Points… Samsung is on a 10-Game Losing Streak

 

LG without Marey, wins streak with Sono… Even performance including Yoo Yoo-sang and Yang Hong-seok

Wonju DB, the leader in professional basketball, won by 35 points, plunging last place Seoul Samsung into a deep swamp of 10 consecutive losses. 카지노

DB broke its losing streak by defeating Samsung 108-73 in the 2023-2024 CheongKwanJang Professional Basketball Regular League away game held at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul on the 30th.

DB, with 28 wins and 9 losses, widened the gap with Seoul SK and Changwon LG (23 wins, 13 losses), who tied for second place, to four and a half games.

On the other hand, Samsung (5 wins, 31 losses), which suffered 10 consecutive losses, has a slimmer chance of escaping last place.

The gap with Anyang Cheonggwanjang and Goyang Sono (13 wins, 23 losses), tied for 8th place, has increased to 8 games.

Samsung, which has been without a win for a month since the last game against Sono on the 30th of last month, suffered 8 straight losses at home.

After winning the Daegu Korea Gas Corporation match on November 23 last year, we have not been able to smile at home for over two months.

Samsung competed on equal footing with DB until the first half.

The score difference between Samsung and DB, led by center Kofi Coburn, who scored 17 points and 7 rebounds in the first half, was only 6 points at the end of the second quarter.

However, DB hit 6 3-pointers in the 3rd quarter alone, scoring 35 points, widening the gap to over 20 points.

Samsung, which was unable to block DB’s quick attack led by Philippine guard Ethan Albano, was blocked by the opponent’s big man lineup of Kim Jong-gyu, Didrick Lawson, and Kang Sang-jae, including Coburn, and lost their attack.

DB’s ace Lawson scored another 3 points from the top at the start of the 4th quarter, completely breaking Samsung’s will to chase.

Lawson performed well in all areas, recording a triple-double with 24 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists.

Kim Jong-gyu also scored 24 points and 7 rebounds while defending Coburn, who was larger than him.

Forward Sangjae Kang recorded 15 points and 10 assists, relieving the burden on Albano, who was in charge of managing the game.

LG also defeated Sono 74-70 on the road without ‘mainstay’ Assem Marey.

As a result, LG rose to a tie for second place with Seoul SK, which broke that day.

The competition surrounding a direct route to the semifinal playoffs (PO) is fierce, with 4th place KT (22 wins, 13 losses) also trailing the two teams by half a game.

In professional basketball, the first and second place teams advance directly to the semifinals without going through the semifinal PO.

LG showed off its extraordinary competitiveness by cruising to 4 wins and 1 loss in the last 5 games in which foreign player Marey was out due to a knee injury.

Marey recorded 16.2 points and 15.3 rebounds in each game and played a key role in the offense and defense behind LG’s goal, but left the team due to a knee injury after the last game against SK on the 9th.

LG, where not only Marey but also Mexican national team center Josh Ibarra, who was selected as a replacement foreign player, has not yet played in an official game, struggled in the first half, allowing 21 points and 8 rebounds to Chinanu Onuaku.

However, in the second half, domestic players such as Lee Kwan-hee and Yang Hong-seok worked hard to shake off the pursuit of Sono, who was centered around Onuaku and Lee Jeong-hyeon.

Yang Hong-seok scored 19 points and became the team’s highest scorer.

Rookie shooter Yoo Yu-sang also provided firepower from the outside, scoring 18 points, including four 3-pointers.

Shin Ji-ah has Grown to the Next Level

피겨 신지아, 강원 동계청소년올림픽 출전권 획득…선발전 1위

Youth Olympics Shin Ji-ah has Grown to the Next Level… Now to the Milan Olympics

 

Two mistakes that turned into great experiences.

Laying the foundation for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Figure skating female single Ji-ah Shin (Yeongdong Middle School) fell in love with the charm of skating when she went to an indoor ice rink in Busan in 2015 when she was in her first year of elementary school.

He persuaded her mother to enroll her in a basic figure skating class, and that year she succeeded in a half-circle waltz jump. 온라인카지노

Shin Ji-ah’s life has changed significantly since 2018, when the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics were held.

Ji-ah Shin visited the Gangneung Ice Arena in Gangwon-do, where the PyeongChang Olympic figure skating competition was held, and broadened her horizons by watching the performances of world-class stars.

With her great encouragement, Jia Shin began training in earnest with the goal of competing in the Olympics, and by her fifth grade of elementary school, she had achieved success in all five jumps (Luts, Flip, Loop, Salchow, and Toe Loop).

Shin Ji-ah moved to Seoul alone with her mother and began her full-fledged career as an athlete.

Since then, she has progressed toward her dream by performing her best in every competition she participates in.

The 2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics (hereinafter referred to as Gangwon 2024) was the prelude to the Olympic stage that Ji-ah Shin had dreamed of.

Gangwon 2024 took on added meaning as it was held at the Gangneung Ice Arena, where the Pyeongchang Olympics were held.

Ahead of Gangwon 2024, Shin Ji-ah said, “This is my first time visiting Gangneung Ice Arena since the Pyeongchang Olympics, and I am excited and overwhelmed.”

Was it because of the pressure of being on the Olympic stage?

Shin Ji-ah made a mistake in the first jump of the short program held on the 28th and achieved somewhat disappointing results.

She came in second place behind her ‘rival’ Mao Shimada (Japan).

She made a mistake in her free skate on the 30th, which she did not normally do.

While performing the change foot combination spin, which was usually rated as ‘perfect’, she received ‘0 points’ due to lack of rotation.

It was a mistake she had never made in an official competition.

Shin Ji-ah made one mistake in the short program and another in the free skating, losing her gold medal to her rival Shimada.

However, these mistakes made Shin Ji-ah grow even more.

“I feel like I’ve grown up,” he said.

The dream of the Olympics became even more vivid.

Now, Jia Shin is competing again for the 2026 Milan/Cortina d’Ampezzo Winter Olympics.

He said after the game, “This tournament will be a great source of nourishment.”

Park Hae-min, We Need to Prepare for Change

박해민 "베이스 확대, 도루 증가 담보하지 않아…변화 대비해야" | 연합뉴스

Park Hae-min, “Expanding the Base does not Guarantee an Increase in Stolen Bases… We Need to Prepare for Change”

 

“My peer Jeong Soo-bin’s stolen base king is also a good motivation for me.”

The announcement of the expansion of the base size and the introduction of the pitch clock is very welcome news for ‘Big Islander’ Park Hae-min (33, LG Twins).

However, Park Hae-min calmly said, “Just because it is advantageous for running baseball does not necessarily mean that stolen bases will increase,” and “You can only enjoy the effects if you thoroughly analyze the changed system and prepare for the change.” 바카라사이트

Park Hae-min, who met at Incheon International Airport on the afternoon of the 30th just before the professional baseball LG Twins team departed for Arizona, USA, where they set up spring training, said, “In 128 games, 200 hits were recorded (Seo Geon-chang’s 201 hits in 2014).

Many people think that there are 144 games.“

The system expected a record of more than 200 hits, but since then, no batter has hit more than 200 hits.”

“If you want to do that, you have to prepare accordingly,” he said.

This means that efforts will be made to take advantage of the regulations.

The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) has decided to expand the base size from 15 square inches to 18 square inches starting from the start of the 2024 season.

Pitch Clock will undergo pilot operation to determine whether to apply it in the second half of the year.

In the American professional baseball major league, stolen base attempts and successes have increased significantly due to the expansion of base size and pitch clock.

In 2022, John Bertie ranked first in the major leagues in this category with 41 stolen bases.

The number of stolen bases by Ronald Acuña Jr., the number one player in 2023, was 73.

Park Hae-min ranked first in stolen bases in the KBO League for four consecutive seasons from 2015 to 2018 when he was a member of the Samsung Lions.

The most stolen bases in an individual season is 60, achieved in 2015.

First of all, Park Hae-min announced, “He will play more often this year.”

However, what is more important is ‘increasing the success rate.’

Haemin Park attempted to steal bases 38 times last year and succeeded 26 times (68.4% steal success rate).

Both the stolen base success and success rate were numbers that Park Hae-min could not be satisfied with.

Although Park Hae-min was disappointed that the success rate did not exceed 70%, he was also stimulated by the fact that his peer Jeong Soo-bin (33, Doosan Bears) became the first stolen base king last year (39, success rate 83%).

Park Hae-min and Su-bin Jeong were born in 1990 and are the same age.

However, Park Hae-min, who was born in February, entered school a year earlier and is called ‘senior’.

Park Hae-min said, “The fact that Soo-bin Jeong ranked first in stolen bases last year motivated me, too.

Through Soo-bin Jeong, I gained confidence that I can challenge for the stolen base king again.

Now that I have an environment where I can play more, I can improve my success rate and improve my performance further.”

“I will try to steal base often,” he said.

Although his success rate in stealing bases was lower than usual, Park Hae-min was a key player in LG’s combined championship in 2023.

In particular, in Game 5 of the Korean Series against KT Wiz, the last game of Korean professional baseball in 2023, he hit a 2-RBI double in the bottom of the 3rd inning and made a diving catch to prevent a run in the top of the 4th inning.

He also performed two spectacular uppercut ceremonies.

In the game where LG confirmed the overall championship, Park Hae-min was named Daily Most Valuable Player (MVP).

Park Hae-min was momentarily thrilled, saying, “Being selected as the MVP of that game will be something I will remember for the rest of my life,” and then added, “Now, we are the defending champions that everyone is keeping in check.

Even if we perform a little poorly, people may say, ‘LG is different from last year.’ “

Even if such a crisis comes, we must increase our strength so that we can overcome it well,” he said, revealing the firm resolve of a ‘those who must protect’.

Park Hae-min has become an ‘adult player’ to the extent of making this request.

He also sent a separate message of encouragement to rookie pitcher Park Myung-geun, who did not make the Korean Series entry and only accompanied the team.

Park Hae-min explained, “It may not be easy for a new player to accept, but Park Myung-geun helped the team throughout the Korean Series without showing any signs of discomfort.

I was grateful for that, so I expressed my feelings to Myung-geun.”

It is also a ‘ranking order’ in which one must actually act like an adult.

Park Hae-min said, “With senior Kim Min-seong transferring to the Lotte Giants, I became the third veteran among LG fielders after Heo Do-hwan and Kim Hyun-soo. It has been 3 years since I signed with LG.”

He added, “Including this season, I have 2 years left on my contract with LG.

No. 2. “I want to win more,” he hoped. 메이저사이트 백링크

Captain Oh Ji-hwan, Shift Restrictions are Advantageous for LG

캡틴 오지환 "시프트 제한, LG에 유리…불펜은 뎁스 느껴질 것" | 연합뉴스

Captain Oh Ji-hwan “Shift Restrictions are Advantageous for LG… The Depth of the Bullpen will be Felt”

 

Oh Ji-hwan (33), the third-year captain of the professional baseball LG Twins, feels the weight of the armband becoming heavier in the 2024 season.

This is because this is the first season for LG, which achieved its first championship in 29 years since 1994, to firmly establish a dynasty era. 카지노사이트

To that extent, Oh Ji-hwan’s gaze is directed not only to where he is standing, but also to the entire field.

It is his captain’s responsibility to ensure that the infield and outfield, as well as the pitchers, work together as one.

Oh Ji-hwan, whom we met at Incheon International Airport before departing for spring camp on the 30th, said, “I have a lot of responsibility,” and added, “I will not be complacent and will work hard while looking back at what I can do and what my juniors and team need.”

At the same time, he shared the ‘big picture’ he was drawing.

First, he judged that the ‘defensive shift limit’ that will be applied starting this season is advantageous to LG Twins.

Shifting is a tactic that leaves one side empty and places an infielder between first and second base, or between third base and the shortstop, in order to completely block a batter who pulls.

Oh Ji-hwan’s basis lies in the LG center line, which boasts the strongest team among the 10 teams.

The center line, which includes shortstop Oh Ji-hwan, catcher Park Dong-won, second baseman Shin Min-jae, and center fielder Park Hae-min, boasts high competitiveness in offense and defense.

Ultimately, the analysis is that LG will have the advantage as the shift disappears and the defensive ability of each fielder becomes more important.

Oh Ji-hwan judged, “There are many friends on our team who have a wide defensive range.

In particular, Haemin, myself, Minjae, and Dongwon have a strong center line, so this will be an advantage.”

He also expressed confidence in the pitching staff, with closer Go Woo-seok advancing to MLB and bullpen Ham Deok-ju leaving due to injury.

Oh Ji-hwan said, “Last year’s 42 comeback wins were possible because the reserve players played their roles even if someone came out,” and assured, “You will be able to accurately see the ‘depth’ (thick player base) this season.”

He said, “I think this will have the positive effect of intensifying competition because there are many people who want to take the position (vacancy),” adding, “If (Yoo) Young-chan makes 30 saves, our chances of winning increase.

Deok-ju “Until I return, there are Kim Yu-young and Yun Ho-sol.”

He also did not forget his determination for himself.

This year is the first year of the ‘6-year, 12.4 billion won’ multi-year contract he agreed to with LG ahead of the 2023 season.

Oh Ji-hwan said, “My next plan is to play for two or three more years. I will not settle and work hard with the thought of playing all 144 games and 1,000 innings.”

LG Kim Hyun-soo, “The Moment we Raise our Shoulders, We Fall to Last Place”

 

Demonstrated desire to win 2nd consecutive victory with strong warning and weight loss

“The moment our shoulders go up, we go down to last place.”

Although he could still enjoy the joy of winning the championship for the first time in 29 years, Kim Hyun-soo (35, LG Twins) shook his head strongly.

Kim Hyun-soo, who met at Incheon International Airport before leaving for Arizona, USA, where the spring camp was set up with LG professional baseball colleagues on the 30th, said, “I am more worried than the satisfaction of winning last year,” and “It is more difficult to keep it than to go up.

We need to do it.” 온라인카지노

“We have to become stronger to stay at the top,” he said.

Kim Hyun-soo said, “I want to talk to my juniors during the spring camp about how much stronger we have to be and can become stronger,” adding, “Of course, I also have to become stronger.”

Kim Hyun-soo revealed his will to “become stronger” by “losing weight” before starting camp.

Kim Hyun-soo lost so much weight in the off-season that everyone who met him after a long time asked, “How much weight did you lose?”

Hyunsoo Kim said, “I have always controlled my weight.

“Last year, due to a back injury, etc., I lacked training during the season, so the weight loss this time was noticeable,” he said.

“I like sweet food, and recently I created and followed a vegetarian-centered diet.

“I tried to control my weight a little more actively this off-season,” he said.

“My clothes got bigger,” he said.

“Although it was due to the injury, the cause of the weight gain was lack of exercise.

“This year, I will maintain my weight well during the season,” he said.

Last year, Kim Hyun-soo posted a batting average of 0.293, an on-base percentage of 0.364, a slugging percentage of 0.383, 6 home runs, and 88 RBI.

Although it was a decent grade, it was not a satisfactory report card for Kim Hyun-soo.

Kim Hyun-soo said, “I have a lot of regrets about my personal performance last year.

It was buried because the team won,” and “I prepared that hard in the off-season.

There are many times when the results do not come out as I prepared, but this year, I hit more accurately and flew the ball farther, so I was most disappointed last year.

“I want to solve the lack of extra-base hits,” he said.

LG coach Yeom Kyung-yeop suggested Kim Hyun-soo to have a batting average of 0.330 as his goal for the 2024 season.

Kim Hyun-soo pledged, “The director set a very high standard, and he will work hard to reach that goal.”

There was also news that Hyunsoo Kim would welcome.

The KBO decided to limit defensive shifts this season.

Shifting is a tactic that leaves one side empty and focuses the infielders between first and second base or between third base and the shortstop in order to block left or right-handed batters who are pulling hard.

Kim Hyun-soo said, “I felt myself becoming passive when a batted ball that I thought was a hit was caught by a fielder,” and added, “I will feel much more at ease with the shift restrictions.”

Kim Hyun-soo, who sees the ‘whole team’, plans to say ‘bitter words’ to his juniors in this camp as well.

Kim Hyun-soo, who predicted, “I think I will continue to tell you to train hard,” looked at Kim Beom-seok, who had gained weight in his second year, and also revealed his “primary target,” saying, “I will help Beom-seok lose weight as well.”
