"Can you be 100% satisfied?"

Hanwha Eagles coach Kim Kyung-moon praised Liberato on the day he completely replaced a foreign hitter from Floral to Liberato. an alternate outsider who has been on a six-week short-term contract. It would be difficult to adapt to the unfamiliar stage, but I was fascinated by the way he fought bravely with opposing pitchers.

Manager Kim said, `When I go to an international competition, I meet unfamiliar pitchers. No matter how much the coaching staff and the power analysis team give information and talk, it is the player who eventually unravels the game. Liberato fought well with the pitchers he met for the first time as soon as he came. I think he even went to a replacement because he bought this highly. He also explained that the RBI was also a great accumulation whenever it was important.




However, Liberato was also slightly questionable in the center field defense. Already, defensive expectations have fallen in Floral. Floral was also considered to be recognized as a center field defense in the Major League, and expected to show a spectacular outfield defense unique to big league players. But when I actually came here, my sense of stability fell a lot. This is why Hanwha desperately looked for a sale of a center fielder with good defense.

Liberato was also a scouting report that he had a good defense, but there were some aspects to be disappointed in 'special A-class'. When asked about Liberato's defense, head coach Kim laughed, saying "How can he be 100% satisfied?" Then "It's not bad to do this much." You can hit one by one in attack rather than defense. If you want something too big, it's hard for the player as well."

Did he hear this comment from director Kim. Would he have wanted to prove that "Director, I'm good at defense as well?" Liberato presented Hanwha with 10 consecutive wins with a tremendous 'Super Catch'.




In the game against the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium on the 22nd, Liberato cleared Oh Myung-jin's hit ball in the left-center with a picturesque sliding catch in the third inning. The team was only leading 1-0, and considering the situation with one out and second base, it was a thousand-gold defense. If you didn't catch it, double. I didn't know how the game would change if it was tied and Doosan's chances continued. It's a final 2-1 victory, so you can guess how big one defense was. Hanwha starter Moon Dong-joo, who won the game, wondered why he ran when he couldn't catch a ball. Defensive of the Year" Did he get excited.

Liberato hit three consecutive hits in two games against KT Wiz after converting to 'regular worker'. The game against Doosan did not have a hit, but he saved the team with a more valuable 'Super Catch' than a hit. Hanwha's choice seems to be increasingly successful.
