“You guys should be the main characters” Became a leader after half a season of transfer… The reason why Lotte embraces the 8 billion commander

On the 9th, resignation LG exhibition. At the point of being chased 6-4, the front of the Lotte dugout became busy. During the game, there were a few cases where the captain or senior players with long years of service in the club called a meeting, and this day seemed to be the same. However, the subject of the meeting was catcher Yoo Kang-nam (31), who joined the team this year.온라인카지노

On this day, Yoo Kang-nam started as the designated hitter. It was a day without the busyness of taking care of the pitchers, putting on and unpacking the catcher’s equipment, and going out to bat. But instead, he closely watched the dugout and the players and watched the airflow.

Lotte lost the first point against LG in the first inning, but later took the lead as the batting line exploded after a long time. Gangnam Yoo also fired a solo gun in the process. They took a 6-1 lead into the fourth inning. However, from the end of the 4th inning, a series of situations occurred that could cast a dark cloud over Lotte.

After one out in the bottom of the 4th inning, Kim Min-seok hit a double that exceeded the height of the left fielder and took the opportunity for an additional point. After that, the opponent’s wildfire came out, and it seemed to be 1 company and 3 base. However, he overrun for a moment and while he was careless, catcher Park Dong-won threw a throw to third base and was hit. In vain, it turned into a situation where there was no runner in the 2nd company. He returned to the dugout devastated. Afterwards, the situation became more regrettable as Yoon Dong-hee hit the right hand. However, Yoon Dong-hee was also checked at first base, and the chance for an extra point in the 4th inning evaporated from the base.

The cost of not scoring an extra point was severe. Two runners came out, and in the 5th inning, Strayley tried to hold on with a fallen pitch, causing a crisis and allowing 2 runs due to a defensive mistake. I was chased by 6-4 and barely passed the top of the 5th inning.

Then, Yoo Kang-nam called up the young players who were returning to the dugout. Gangnam Yoo caught and calmed his agitated players before heading into the bottom of the fifth. He played a role in setting the mood. He joined Lotte for 4 years and 8 billion won, and only half a season has passed.

However, Yoo Gang-nam has become a person who has melted into the squad and can interact with young players without hesitation. It was Yoo Kang-nam, who had already melted into the existing players with affinity, saying, “It seems like a player who has always been there.” Affinity led to being a leader. As existing middle and old players became seniors, there were not enough players to serve as a bridgehead between young players, but Yoo Kang-nam was reborn as a being who could embrace and comfort young players in half a season of transfer.

Regarding the meeting at the time, Yoo Kang-nam said, “(Kim) Min-seok and (Yoon) Dong-hee had a run and conceded in the next inning. I told the young players, ‘Don’t be intimidated, go to the bat and rather you guys become the main characters. Obviously, a chance will come in the remaining innings. Wait for that opportunity and make it yours,” he said, explaining the content of the meeting.


In the end, Lotte calmly overcame the crisis in the 5th and 6th innings and gained an additional point at the end of the 6th inning with Jeon Jun-woo’s push-off dune. In the 8th inning, Seongbin Hwang jumped and caught the ball stuck on the fence in the foul area of ​​Kim Hyun-soo, and played a hobi. Afterwards, Kim Min-seok fulfilled Yoo Gang-nam’s order by playing an active part in the right place, such as hitting against Go Woo-seok, the league’s strongest finisher. Kim Min-seok and Yoon Dong-hee darkened the fourth inning with runners, but they reached base seven times as table setters. Number 1 Kim Min-seok went 5 at-bats, 3 hits, 1 RBI and 1 point, and number 2 Yoon Dong-hee played an active role in 2 at-bats, 1 hit, 1 point and 3 walks. Hwang Seong-bin also recorded 2 hits and 1 RBI in 4 at-bats in Lake Bi. In addition, Son Seong-bin, who wore a starting catcher mask in place of Yoo Kang-nam, became the main character by checking out second base in the 5th inning and stopping base stealing in the 7th inning. Yoo Kang-nam said, “I think it was a game where young players could grow,” and conveyed his proud leader’s feelings.

Kang-Nam Yoo is recovering from hitting with a batting average of 3.5 (7 hits in 20 at-bats), 2 homers, 3 RBIs, and an OPS of 1.000 in July. Now, he has become a Lotte man to the extent that he can act as a leader and have a voice even within the squad, and spread positive influence. It was confirmed in the game on the 9th that Lotte recruited the 8 billion housekeeper and the commander.
