"The players are under a lot of stress, and they're really preparing a lot."
SSG Landers have been dealing with batting woes all season. The indicators tell us. He ranks ninth in the team batting average (0.242) with seventh in the team home run (62), last in the team Ruta (1036), ninth in the OPS (0.669), and last in the scoring area (0.239). Although there is a difference in the number of games, the number of hits in the team is also last (721 hits). As many as three of the major batting indicators are at the bottom. The team ranking is fiercely competing with the Samsung Lions for sixth place (as of the 21st), but the helpless bat is a concern. In contrast, most of the team's pitching staff indicators are ranked first and second.
In particular, the inability to break the losing streak by scoring only one point in 18 innings in two games after the start of the second half deepened the agony. After the match against the Doosan Bears in Incheon on the 20th, all SSG hitters played outdoor special hits for about two hours instead of leaving work. Foreign batter Guillermo Herredia was no exception. It's an extra hit every day, but the outdoor hit of the day had a clear message.

Coach Lee Sung-yong, who met ahead of the match against Samsung in Daegu on the 22nd, said, `I was also a hitting coach, but I have nothing to say. However, the coaching staff and players, including myself, are really preparing a lot. It's not just that it's going to get better, but I'm training hard while doing everything I don't really try. The players are also under a lot of stress, and I think it's my full responsibility as a coach in that regard"I'm trying my best to get better, and I'm sure it'll get better. The players are working hard, but it doesn't work out well, so it's not without an impact on the team. Still, while talking with the players, I am talking a lot and trying to solve it somehow. If you wait a little bit, I'll repay the fans"I'm sorry to the fans.

Pitchers are doing so well in the season, so the batting is more prominent. Manager Lee Sung-yong also said, `The pitchers are throwing so well right now, and I feel sorry for the pitching coaches and pitchers. So everyone is working harder. It's right to say it as a result rather than an effort, but I think it'll definitely get better"The players who have to hit in the end have to hit it. The young players still have ups and downs."
As for the special hit last Sunday "Coaches talked to the players after the game and held it for about two hours, and the players and coaches are trying to find a way by eating and talking a lot together." I don't think it's too late. First of all, we will quickly break the losing streak, and we will certainly find a good atmosphere."
