MVP Oh Ji-hwan, who won the Korean Series for the first time in 29 years, is an unknown slump this season.

He has been in the second division for 20 days, but he is still sluggish.

Oh Ji-hwan has a batting average of 2.15 (47 hits in 219 at-bats) with seven home runs and 28 RBIs in 74 games this season. With an on-base percentage of 0.292 and a slugging percentage of 0.365, the OPS is only 0.657.




The time Oh Ji-hwan's batting average was lower than this was 212 in 2011, as many as 14 years ago. It can be said that they are in a severe slump.

He is also weak in scoring position. He has a batting average of only 230 (14 hits in 61 at-bats).

I went to the 2nd Army for 20 days from June 9 to 28. Unfortunately, my grades got worse.




Oh Ji-hwan, who had a batting average of 2.18 (39 hits in 179 at-bats) and six home runs and 26 RBIs in 61 games before going to the second division, had a further batting average of .20 (8 hits in 40 at-bats) in 13 games after returning from the second division. A home run is two RBIs for one. His batting average also fell from 255 (13 hits in 51 at-bats) to 10 percent (1 hit in 10 at-bats).

After the All-Star break, Oh Ji-hwan also showed no signs of rebounding in the first series of the second half against the Lotte Giants.

Oh Ji-hwan, who started as a seventh shortstop on the 18th and got on base with a walk in his first at-bat in the bottom of the second inning, homered on Lee Joo-heon's double and scored, created a chance with a left double in his second at-bat after two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning, but failed to score. Oh Ji-hwan, who sent the first baseman to second base in the bottom of the sixth inning with a ground ball in front of the first base, was unfortunately withdrawn by a fly to center field in the bottom of the eighth inning with two outs and runners on first and second bases amid a 2-1 and one-run lead. One hit, one walk, and one point in three at-bats.

Oh Ji-hwan, who was excluded from the starting lineup on the 19th and came out as a pinch hitter with two outs and a runner on first base in the bottom of the eighth inning, but retired due to a catcher groundout, started again as a sixth-striker on the 20th.

I expected the opponent to be Lee Min-seok, who is right-handed, but the result was not good. In the bottom of the second inning, he stepped down with a ground ball in front of the third baseman in his first at-bat after one out, and in the bottom of the fourth inning, he hit a double play in front of the second baseman. In the bottom of the sixth inning, he struck out swinging, and in the bottom of the eighth inning with one out and runners on the first and second bases with a 3-2 lead, he struck out a rookie after a full count match. He went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and only one hit in eight at-bats in three games.

LG's top batting line is not bad. The top batting line, which leads to Shin Min-jae, Moon Sung-joo, Kim Hyun-soo, Moon Bo-kyung, and Park Dong-won, is enough to put pressure on the opponent. The sixth batter has to sweep some of the chances they made with their on-base, but Oh Ji-hwan has not been able to play the role.

Good defense is still stable. On top of that, if you show your clutch ability in important situations like before, you can give LG enough momentum. Now LG and Oh Ji-hwan have only 53 games left.
