Is this a ball that a person can catch.

SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 27th, when the final game of the weekend's three consecutive games between SSG Landers and Kiwoom Heroes was held.

Many SSG fans who visited the stadium for Sunday were in shock. The ace Kim Kwang-hyun, who he trusted, allowed seven runs, including a bases-loaded hit by Oh Sun-jin in the third inning, and made an early substitute in three ⅓ innings. The atmosphere has completely shifted toward Kiwoom.




If you play the season, you can win or lose, but if you lose to the lowest team with poor objective power and give up the winning series, the atmosphere will be bad. SSG fans were not excited at all.

Then at the beginning of the fifth inning. There was one thing that made SSG fans, who only sighed, stand up automatically, and Choi Jun-woo's Super Catch.

The situation was like this. With two outs and no runners, Kiwoom leadoff high school graduate Jeon Tae-hyun entered the batter's box. He pushed SSG pitcher Choi Min-joon's ball into a beautiful trajectory. At the moment of being hit, he thought it would be a double between left and center.




However, SSG left fielder Choi Jun-woo did not give up and followed the ball. At first, he ran from left field position to left-center. Then, as if he had caught the expected drop point, he turned slightly to the left and ran toward the fence again. It's clear that the ball is already going over the head. It was a hit that an average outfielder had to prepare for a fence play.

However, Choi Joon-woo chased the ball with great tenacity and threw himself together in the direction of the ball flying. I caught it. There was an exclamation everywhere. Despite losing heavily, SSG players congratulated Choi Jun-woo with joy as if it were their job to watch this catch. That impressive scene.

On the contrary, Jeon Tae-hyun had no choice but to make a face of losing his country. This is because the record of at least a double was blown away in an instant. How disappointed I was, I arrived at second base and couldn't enter the dugout for a while.

It is said that it is never easy to catch a ball flying over the fielder's head. However, it was practically impossible to catch a ball with strength after hitting it well, but Choi Jun-woo did it.

More surprisingly, Choi was not originally an outfielder. A case where he joined as an infielder, but turned to the outfield to make use of his batting qualities. It is being used under the impression of coach Lee Soo-yong this season, and it seems that he has definitely scored a plus point with this defense.
