It's a clear provocation. If it were a major league, bench clearing would have occurred even before stepping on first base. I can't help but look forward to the next meeting.

Doosan Bears' big gun Yang Seok-hwan virtually hit the Lotte Giants 'declaration of war'.

Yang Seok-hwan started as the fourth batter and first baseman against Lotte in Busan on the 6th, and took the lead in the 15-12 come-from-behind victory with two hits, one home run and five RBIs in four at-bats. The action taken after hitting a home run in the top of the eighth inning wowed baseball fans. It provided excitement to Doosan fans, anger to Lotte fans, and fun to other team fans.




Yang Seok-hwan showed an explicitly stimulating ceremony. I watched the ball with my legs wide open. After confirming that it was a homrum, he raised his right index finger and stabbed it over his head. Then, with both hands, he threw the bat hard with a very big motion.

Of course, only they will know what the inside story was between Lotte and Yang Seok-hwan before that. It is unlikely that such a sudden excess of 'bottom 'bottom 'bottom 'bottom' will come out.

Apart from that, I wonder how Lotte will come out in the next showdown. On this day, the game was so urgent that there was no time to react to the ceremony. He hit a home run, but it was still two points apart and he still had to focus on the game. The game was more important for now because it was the eighth inning. But when the new game begins, the story is different. Lotte gets enough opportunity to `punish.'




The most intuitive answer is, again, a bin ball. Beanball is the most common means of retaliation when our players are exposed to threatening balls, repeated dunes, injuries due to rough play by opponents, or when they are provoked or ridiculed like this.

Even the pitcher who hit a home run by Yang Seok-hwan is Park Se-hyun, a high school graduate this year. It was a professional debut. The first opponent was Yang Seok-hwan. The youngest was so humiliated. I don't know what the parties will be like, but the fans are boiling.

If Lotte lets go of this provocation, the level of stimulating ceremony for Lotte could be higher and higher in the future. The image of a team that stays still despite being beaten is by no means welcome.




Of course, empty balls are not the answer. It's also a matter of who throws it. If Yang Seok-hwan walks up to the mound in anger, it's bench clearing. Even if Yang Seok-hwan just walks out, if Doosan throws a retaliatory ball, it is also bench clearing. One way is to return Lotte with an overaction ceremony.

The next Lotte-Doosan match will take place in Jamsil from April 25-27.
