Steminer's king, Cody Ponce, trained shortstop in the heat.
Daejeon Hanwha Life Ball Park on the 1st. The tallest shortstop at 198cm appeared. After completing the pitching training, Ponce did not enter the locker room, but put a handful of ball boxes in his glove in front of the infield mound and headed to the shortstop position.

Coach Fungo is essential for infield defense training. But there can be no separate coach just for Ponce.
Ponce put the ball in his glove in advance, running forward as if he were receiving a real hit, running sideways and starting training that was 90% similar to the real thing.

Ponce, who strutted around the front, back, left and right with long legs and showed off a wide range of defense, moved to third base this time to show the essence of running and throwing clothes lines.
At first glance, it was a drill that seemed like a prank, but Ponce's expression was more serious than anyone else. A pitcher is also another infielder, so defense is important. This is why defensive training is also included in pitchers' pre-game routines.
Ponce also played defensive training in the outfield. Nevertheless, he vividly awakened his sense of defense by training shortstop and third baseman with fun.
On this day, Daejeon was in a severe heat wave. Nevertheless, Ponce's tireless and enjoyable training was reliable. Ponce, the team's ace and leader of the league with 11 wins and no losses, is clearly Hanwha's treasure.
