"Because you're so bad at yourself."

Hanwha Eagles manager Kim Kyung-moon made a decision before the match against the Gwangju KIA Tigers on the 7th. Roh Si-hwan, the undisputed No. 4 hitter, was lowered to the 6th batting order. This is because he has suffered from a severe batting slump, with his batting average falling to 0.083 (36 hits in 36 at-bats) in the last 10 games.

Of the 62 games he started this season, Noh was the fourth batter in 60 games. He first changed to the fifth batter against Daegu Samsung on April 6, and played as the third hitter against the Doosan Bears in Jamsil on April 8. In the game against Doosan, Noh Si-hwan returned to the fourth batter and has maintained his position so far by swinging three hits in four at-bats (one home run) and four RBIs. This is the first time Noh Si-hwan has been out of the clean-up trio.




Director Kim said "Because he's so bad right now. Rather, I just sent it back a little bit,' he briefly explained the background of the change.

Coach Kim emphasized his unwavering faith in Noh Si-hwan until the match against KIA on the 6th. However, Noh Si-hwan was silent again with no hits in three at-bats, and Hanwha lost 2-3. Noh's batting average in June fell to 0.059 (one hit in 17 times at bat).

Hanwha made the starting lineup with Floral (center fielder), Ha Joo-seok (striker), Moon Hyun-bin (left fielder), Chae Eun-sung (first baseman), Lee Jin-young (right fielder), Noh Si-hwan (third baseman), Choi In-ho (designated hitter), Choi Jae-hoon (catcher), and Hwang Young-mook (second baseman). The starting pitcher is left-hander Hwang Jun-seo.

Chae Eun-sung and Lee Jin-young, who hit solo home runs side by side in the game on the 6th, were forward in the fourth and fifth batting order, respectively.

The starting pitcher for KIA is Adam Oler. Aller is 6-2 with 71 innings and a 3.04 ERA in 12 games this season. There is no victory against Hanwha this year. He recorded 11 innings and an ERA of 3.27 in two showdowns without winning or losing.

Coach Kim praised Noh Si-hwan for faithfully performing his duties as the main third baseman even if he has ups and downs in the batting. When Chae Eun-sung and other batters were cheering up, it was expected that Noh Si-hwan would recover his batting sense as soon as possible and take the center stage as Hanwha's No. 4 hitter.




Manager Kim said "We're holding out right now while Si-hwan is the worst hitter. And Sihwan is doing really well in defense right now. If Si-hwan has confidence on the offensive side, we'll probably have a scoring ability or a little more power. You have to wait until then. Other players need to cheer up and do more" encouraged.
