“The power of one player is so great” Hanwha realizes the Ryu Hyun-jin effect
The Hanwha Eagles of the Korean Baseball Organization are already feeling the effects of the return of ace Ryu Hyun-jin, 37.
Ryu, who rejoined Hanwha on March 22, returned home on April 4 from the team’s second spring training camp in Okinawa, Japan. He threw two bullpen sessions and one live pitching session to get a feel for the game, and threw 65 pitches in the live session.
“I felt like (Ryu) was going to come to the team, but he thanked the manager for contacting me in advance,” said captain Chae Eun-sung, 34, who returned home with Ryu.
When Ryu joined the team for spring training, Hanhwa’s excitement reached a fever pitch. Chae Eun-sung said, 안전놀이터 “There were a lot of articles and a lot of reporters, so I felt a lot of excitement in Okinawa, Japan that I didn’t feel in spring training last year. I think this is the power of (Ryu) Hyun-jin’s brother,” she said.
He added, “The team atmosphere has improved a lot since Hyun-jin came back. With so much power in one player, the players’ confidence will be boosted,” he smiled.
Before the exhibition game, Ryu Hyun-jin will pitch against Team Cheongbae on July 7.
Ryu and Moon are scheduled to take the mound side-by-side, creating a lot of buzz. Chae Eun-sung revealed her desire to face Ryu in the batter’s box.
“I hit (Moon) Dong-ju’s ball when I was in LG,” Chae said. When I was in the first team (in LG), Hyun-jin Hyun went to the United States. He’s one of the pitchers I’m curious about. It would be nice to see him at the plate (when he comes up),” he said. “He’s on the same team as Hyun-jin, so we don’t have to face each other. I think I’ll be able to relax (in the Blue-Black game). It’s something I look up to, and I want to experience it.”
Hanwha is also hoping to benefit from the experience of its veteran players this year. In addition to Ryu Hyun-jin, the team also signed Ahn Chi-hong (34) and Kim Kang-min (42) in the offseason to provide depth.
“Last year, we didn’t have many veteran players, 카지노사이트 추천 but this year we have good players. We had a lot of talks among the seniors,” she said, adding, “I feel like the team’s atmosphere is getting better with more seniors.”
