For the 3,000-hit legend, BK was a nightmare itself I couldn't even touch it. It came out in my dream when I was sleeping

SSG Landers held a meaningful event at SSG Futures Field in Ganghwa, Gyeonggi-do on the 11th.
American Major League Baseball legends Adrian Beltre and Cole Hamels were invited to hold a MLB Legend Mentoring Day.
The two people whose nickname is Legend is never awkward. Beltre, who has been famous as a `Park Chan-ho helper' since his time as a LA Dodgers player, is a special player who can explain that he was inducted into the Major League Hall of Fame. He became the 31st player in Major League history to hit 3,000 hits in his career, and won four All-Stars, four Silver Sluggers, and five Golden Gloves.
Hammels is a left-hander orthodox ace representing Major League Baseball and won MVP in 2008 when he put his team at the top of the World Series for the Philadelphia Phillies.
On the first day of the 11th, Beltre had a lecture and a Q&A session with the team. It started at 8:30 a.m. in the early morning following the match and training schedule, but the players' eyes were sparkling.

As soon as Beltre heard the question, he burst into an indescribable laugh. 'You're asking me this question as a 3,000-hit batter?' Is this what it meant. It wasn't. Beltre burst into laughter, clapping his lips as if he was exhausted just thinking about it, shouting "Byunghyun Kim".
I was talking about Kim Byung-hyun. a legendary nuclear submarine that once dominated the major leagues. It was Beltre, who experienced his heyday. Beltre says "I'm not talking about this when I come to Korea. Kim Byung-hyun was a really difficult opponent. I remember being out for 29 consecutive at-bats. I threw a 95-mile fastball underhand, and I couldn't even touch it."
Beltre continued "Kim Byung-hyun first hit in 2007 when he got older, or when his speed dropped a little. At that time, I had a hit and did a ceremony. Kim Byung-hyun came out of his dream on the day he faced Kim Byung-hyun. 95 miles to throw under, and the ball in the strike zone??I can't get it. I can't even get it. "I've never seen a pitcher throw such a strong ball underneath."
In fact, it was confirmed that Beltre had one hit in 16 at-bats against Kim Byung-hyun in the big league. In any case, for Beltre 'Legend', Kim Byung-hyun must have been a pitcher like 'Nightmare'.
