It's temporary number two, but it's perfect. Strong number two + on-base percentage of 0.667 all the way? GG candidates for the dramatically changed youth stormtroopers

"I thought today's game was a good combination of old and new. I think I realized the importance of being a veteran once again, and I think it was a clean game that we (veterans) solve when young players put it on."
In fact, the game was clear that the lineup was structured and divided into roles.
Young table setters 1 and 2 diligently created chances. Top hitter Kim Ji-chan (24) scored two points on three hits in five at-bats, and No. 2 Lee Jae-hyun (22) swept four runs with one hit and four outs in three at-bats.
The central batting line ate the table they prepared cleanly without any leftovers.
No. 3 Koo Ja-wook had three hits, four RBIs and three runs, including a two-run home run, while No. 4 Kang Min-ho, No. 5 Diaz, and No. 6 Park Byung-ho each had two hits and two RBIs. No. 3, 4, 5, and 6 combined for 10 RBIs.

A young shortstop in his fourth year who returned with increased sophistication after visiting the U.S.
Before the game, Samsung manager Park Jin-man "The original plan is that Hun-gon should go into the second batting order when a left-handed pitcher comes out, but Hun-gon has been feeling a little weak during the exhibition games these past few days."He explained that Lee Jae-hyun's card No. 2 was a desperate measure. Then "If Hun-gon accumulates his sense of practice to some extent, I think he will go when the left-handed pitcher comes up." Still, through the exhibition game, Jae-hyun had a good batting pace, so as we made batting orders mainly for players with a good sense of practice, Jae-hyun came into the game, he explained the background.

Lee Jae-hyun pushed Kiwoom starter Kenny Rosenberg's changeup from his first at-bat after one out in the bottom of the first inning when he was trailing 0-1. Diaz scored an equalizer when he made a timely hit.
A double that he pushed coolly from his first at-bat. Since then, he has continued his on-base streak of four consecutive at-bats with four pitches, walks, and walks in the boundary of an opponent who knows he is a shortstop who can hit a home run. Every time he went out, he scored without a break. He was simply the second batter out of a perfect score.
The second batting order that happened to be placed. It is a perfect place for Lee Jae-hyun's finely changed batting style. It has the power to cross the fence at any time, which can cause the opposing pitcher's alertness and increase the on-base rate. Not only on-base percentage, but it could also be 'Strong No. 2'. It is also a perfect match for the table setter with Kim Ji-chan, who disturbs the opponent's defense with the league's fastest foot. Lee Jae-hyun, who is equipped with sophistication, is soaring in front of the destructive central lineup leading to Koo Ja-wook, Kang Min-ho, and Park Byung-ho.
The shortstop's defense, which he is good at, has become more mature. Kang Min-ho, the best fielder who led the opening game to a big victory as catcher No. 4, said, `When I see Lee Jae-hyun playing, I feel like he's playing a little more leisurely now" heaped praise on us.
A young shortstop who enhanced sophistication by visiting CSP in the U.S. during the offseason. If he leads the team to the championship with his ball-strike performance, it is not a dream to win the Golden Glove's first prize and national shortstop, which was unfortunately missed last year.
I don't know if 'Lee Jae-hyun card 2' will be the best finding to maximize the balance of Samsung's batters this season.
