Replacing MVP outsiders 3 times? We need to wake up to the cold warning of steel magic. I've been waiting for you so far.

"I told you to wake up." Get a kick out of it."

The message I wanted to convey was clear even with the smiley face and the joking tone. He is one of the best virtues in the league, but he is also the owner of leadership like 'Steel'.

KT Wiz coach Lee Kang-chul, who met at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 11th, expressed his regret for the upset loss the previous day, saying, `It was twisted from the weather.'




The first game of the doubleheader was canceled the previous day due to rain, and only the second game was played. The double header will be held again on this day.

The away team Lotte Giants' game was canceled before leaving their accommodation. On the other hand, due to the nature of the home team, the KT team, which came to the ground early and prepared, seems to be preparing for a double header for two consecutive days.

The starting pitcher is more sensitive. Ko Young-pyo, who was scheduled to start the first game early, played in the second game as it was. However, it collapsed by allowing eight runs in the fifth inning without completing the fifth inning, unlike the "Quality Start", which is more than 6 innings and 3 earned runs or less. He even committed a balk.

Director Lee Kang-chul said, `There have always been difficulties, but I won't rush. Baseball is not a job of manpower, isn't it. It is right to go in the right direction."

However, he did not leave out a strict warning to poor players. When asked why he lost Rojas in the third inning the day before, "I took it out because I couldn't do it." "I'm hitting a double play with one out and runners on the first and second bases, so..." a cold answer came back.

"If Ahn Hyun-min had given one more chance, we wouldn't know what would have happened to yesterday's game. I did it to get stimulated, to get a grip."




This is the sixth season in KT alone. He has recorded triple 100 (three-digit hits, RBIs, and scores at the same time) three times and won his third Golden Glove last year. He led KT's fall baseball with 32 home runs and an OPS of 0.999.

But this year is not the same as previous years. He is sluggish with a batting average of 232, six homers, 18 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.785.

Coach Lee Kang-chul said, `We are now below 50% of the winning rate due to yesterday's defeat. I've been waiting for you so far. It's not like you're looking at me for a day or two, but don't you have to try hard, but the result should come out in the end. You have to throw away the idea of 'my place'. You need to get your act together," he stressed.
