“I’ve got it now.”
Kim Do-young of the KIA Tigers hasn’t been hitting well lately. He’s batting .278 in his last 10 games, including a one-hitter against the Gochuk Kiwoom Heroes on Dec. 13. His at-bats have been a bit disjointed, with some uncharacteristic swings at pitches.
However, Kim’s one hit on the day showed that it’s a breathing process to get back into the swing of things. And this process is very important. In order to contribute to the team, you have to hit first. The one home run needed to get to 30-30 will also come naturally from hitting.
“He knows it,” Lee said with a smile before the 13th game, “but he said, ‘I get it now.’ You can’t just keep hitting home runs, you have to get hits first. When I was talking to Do-young, I told him that he had to get a hit. He said, “You have to get a hit to get the feeling, and then you have to get the feeling to get a good pitch.
Don’t worry about the 30-30 itself. Lee said, “When he’s hitting, he’s a scary guy. If he gets one home run, he’ll be in the condition to keep hitting from then on. If the hits keep coming, the home runs will come quickly enough.”
In fact, Kim is trying to become the youngest and fewest 30-30 player. The youngest 30-30 is nothing to worry about. In 1996, Park Jae-hong was 22 years, 11 months, and 27 days old. Kim, born in October 2003, is not yet 21 years old. She”s almost two years away from breaking the record. All he has to do is play 30-30 and the youngest record will follow.
The 30-30 minimum is interesting. The minimum 30-30 record is 112 games, held by Eric Thames in 2015. At the time, Thames was the only player 해외 카지노 사이트 in the KBO to reach 40-40. He did it in 140 games of the season. At the time, it would have been difficult to go 40-40 if the 30-30 was a little later.
Kim Do-young played in 109 games for KIA until the 13th. If Kim hits a home run against Gochuk Kiwoom on the 14th and 15th, he’ll reach 30-30, beating Themz’s record by 1-2 games. However, if he hits a home run against the LG Twins in Jamsil on the 16th, he’ll have to settle for tying Themz’s 2015 record for fewest games played. If he goes 30-30 after that, he will keep the 2015 record of 30-30.
For now, it’s worth noting Kim’s “I got it” comment to Lee Bum-ho. In seven games for Gochuk this season, Kim is batting .400 with 10 doubles, four home runs, eight RBIs and eight runs scored in 25 at-bats. His 176-kilometer fastball was also hit in Gocheok on April 23 against Ha Young-min. In many ways, Kim has fond memories of Gochuk. Kim Do-young’s batting performance on April 14-15 is noteworthy.
Kim Do-young talked about visiting a power analysis coach right after the Gwangju Samsung Lions game on the 11th to get a sense of the problem. He said, “After the last game, I just didn’t have an answer, so I went to the power analysis coach and found the problem by looking at the problem and my batting form. I immediately found the problem and kept working with the power analytics coach to fix it, so I started doing it in practice and it actually felt really good,” he said. Maybe the home runs will come soon.
