The first pitch and hitters commemorating the Day of the Disabled will be decorated by players belonging to the Blind Baseball Team 'Siloam Shines'. The Siloam Shines is the first blind baseball team in Korea established in 2012 by introducing regulations on blind baseball games held by the United States 'National Deep Baseball Association' in 2011. Since its foundation, Siloam Shines has been active and is leading the way in expanding the base of visually impaired sports.
Kim Joo-sung, who was in charge of the first pitch 'Siloam Shines', said "I felt the possibility that I could do it through blind baseball. Moreover, it is a great honor to receive the opportunity to pitch like this." Lee Kyung-seok, who took the batter's box, said, `Baseball brings constant challenges and passion to my life. I will do my best in this batting as a player of Xyloam Shines," he said.
