Colorful lineups such as Kim Tae-kyun, Yoon Seok-min, Lee Dae-dae and Na Ji-wan have been unveiled, attracting expectations from baseball fans even before the broadcast.
At the first team meeting, coach Lee Jong-beom said, `Let's do well as a team until the end. Before I become a director, I want to communicate and prepare well as a senior," he said, expressing a strong will. Since then, he has demonstrated his leadership by taking a one-point lesson with a Pengo bat. Under the guidance of coach Lee, Lee Hak-joo showed impressive batting by crossing the fence in succession, and Kim Tae-kyun also proved to be strong with consecutive home runs.
Lee Dae-hyung showed off his 'know-how' aspect by accurately contacting the pitcher's ball with his new batting form, and Heo Do-hwan hit a home run when he hit the pole, raising expectations. After watching this, Na Ji-wan said, "Now I'm the only one who needs to get it right," he said with a determination. Coach Jang Sung-ho, who watched the defensive training, expressed satisfaction, saying, `It's better than I thought.'
The pitching staff's performance was also noteworthy. Yoon Seok-min enjoyed pitching for the first time in a long time, saying, `I missed the ground,' while Yoon Hee-sang showed a live ball tip in live pitching. Yoon Gil-hyun drew attention with a maximum speed of 142km/h, and even Shim Soo-chang started pitching in the half, signaling competition.
Even after the end of the training, Kim Tae-kyun voluntarily conducted extended training and showed his passion.
The production team is working hard to become a team worthy of the name 'strongest'"The Strongest Baseball" can be found on JTBC in September," he said.
