LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop praised Shin Min-jae, who has recently shown tremendous performance in ball and defense.
Shin Min-jae led the team to a 5-0 victory by playing a thrilling defense at second base in a multi-hit game, including a triple against KT Wiz at Jamsil Stadium on the 30th. He had multi hits in two consecutive games following the game against KT on Sunday. His batting average for this season rose to 314.
Shin Min-jae's starting position was also shaken with a batting average of 1441 in April, but he began to recover at the end of May. And he has a huge batting average of 362 in June and 387 in July.
Amid Shin Min-jae's performance, LG continues its crazy momentum of 9 wins and 2 losses in 11 games in the second half. They are closely chasing the leading Hanwha Eagles by two games.
Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop, who met ahead of the KT match on the 31st, said, `The hitting pace overall came up. Two-stroke balance is in place. Seung-luck follows him," he said with satisfaction.
Coach Yeom mentioned Shin Min-jae among them and wandered from April to May, but he trained with hitting coach Mo Chang-min and changed completely from June. It was valid to take the hitting point forward. As Shin Min-jae fills Hong Chang-ki's vein, which has been left out due to injury, the lineup is running stably. In the end, the game is solved in the top batting order of 1st to 4th, so the game is going well."
Coach Yeom continued, `If Shin Min-jae became the main player of LG last year, this year is the process of growing into the league's top class in both ball and water. It is very encouraging for Shin Min-jae himself and the team. Coach Mo Chang-min and coach Kim Il-kyung helped well. If the season is over like this, it will be able to grow into a top-class second baseman in the league beyond LG's main lineup. a very large income."
