Noh Si-hwan said, "(The home run will come out) in the first place. It's hard to get over it with liner" he said. Then "I think we need to move a lot behind the left-handed.", he also disclosed his survival strategy.

Although he gave a cold evaluation to the home run over 'Monster Wall', he started 'Homer King Resurrection'




Breaking the long silence, he beat a meaningful shot. Noh Si-hwan, who had a batting average of 125 in the previous three games, hit a timely double in his first at-bat on the day, and even hit a home run in the fourth inning, his third at-bat.

a shot that shook off one's slump. Noh Si-hwan added "The face is coming up little by little. It's good because I think it's a foothold to start well in time for the opening." In addition, he said "I haven't had a good hit since the camp. It wasn't good to bat and play. I said it was okay inside, but there were a lot of worries around me. "If there are times when hitting is bad, there comes another good time. I think it's coming up little by little at this time because I thought that if I practice calmly and not in a hurry, it will come up someday. "




This season, Hanwha firmly formed the starting lineup by recruiting Eom Sang-baek from the FA. In addition, it is evaluated that the bullpen has become stronger than before due to young blood growth such as Kim Seo-hyun. The batter's performance that will lighten the pitcher's shoulders has become important. In the game on the 11th, Hanwha won 8-0 as the batters were actively bursting without the pitchers giving a point. It was the most ideal winning picture.

Noh Si-hwan said, `Overall, the pitching staff continued to be good. If only the hit is supported, I think I will perform well this season. Now in the season, I hope hitters continue to play well and win many games."
