"My physical condition is normal."

Son Ah-seop (37, Hanwha Eagles) hosted a live BP at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 7th.

Son Ah-seop, who hit the ball thrown by coach Yoon Kyu-jin on the previous day (6th), was able to boost his sense of practice by hitting the ball thrown by Kang Jae-min and Hwang Jun-seo on the same day.




Son Ah-seop moved his team from the NC Dinos to Hanwha in a trade on the 31st of last month. Hanwha, which needed a batter with solid batting ability, sent 300 million won in the third round of the 2026 rookie draft.

Son Ah-seop currently ranks first in the number of hits (2,583) and ranks third in the batting average (0.320) of active batters.

Hanwha explained, `We made this trade because Son Ah-seop, who holds the record for the most hits in professional baseball and has a postseason OPS of 1.008 in the last 10 years, thought it would help him enter the fall baseball league.'




Son Ah-seop is on the injured list due to a side injury on the 24th of last month. Immediately after the transfer, he joined the first team and made his body.

Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said after the live BP on the 6th, "Tomorrow (7th) I'm really going to let the pitcher hit the ball once." If there is no special problem, I will register the LG match first. It's the same with other teams, but we shouldn't be too behind LG."

First of all, there was no particular abnormality. Son said "Now (his physical condition) is normal. "I'm good for now because I have to catch the timing and this part of the hitting sense while playing anyway."

Kang Jae-min, whom Son Ah-seop faced on the day, is another resource that Hanwha is waiting for. He went on vacation before being discharged from the military on the 12th, and came out as a surprise helper on the day.

Son said "Wanak Movement is a good player. I think I'm more focused because I still feel like I'm the other team because I've played against them when I'm on another team."

If there is nothing special, it will be registered against LG on the 8th. LG is currently a competition team that is fighting Hanwha for the lead. There is no pain at all"It doesn't matter who the opponent is. It's important how helpful I am to the team. The pressure was there throughout baseball. I think that kind of pressure will help you perform betterexpected "
