"It might be a sound of fullness, but I also thought I wish I didn't go out once."

Playing as a pinch hitter means playing at an important moment. Most of the time, it's a chance. If you don't produce results at that time, the batter will inevitably shrink.

SSG Landers Oh Tae-gon did. Oh Tae-gon said "The director looks for a lot of opportunities. It's not easy to go out as a substitute, but I kept doing bad, so I got smaller on my own. "It might be a sound of fullness, but I also thought I wish I didn't go out once." If a player is afraid to participate, it means that his confidence has fallen to the bottom.

The same was true of the match against the Samsung Lions in Incheon on the 6th. Oh Tae-gon was excluded from the starting lineup and started on the bench. Then I had to prepare as a substitute. But Oh Tae-gon "Usually the first pinch-hitter is getting ready in the dugout, but I went inside on purpose not to be seen by the coach. However, the coach came to find him, and he said, `So I went out thinking that there is no way that a person should die and let's do it.'

With Hyun's timely hit, Oh took the batter's box with two outs and runners on the first and second bases in the bottom of the sixth inning. As a pinch hitter at No. 8 Chae Hyun-woo, Oh competed with Samsung's right-hander Lee Seung-hyun. Oh Tae-gon, who picked out the slider outside the first pitch, hit the 134-kilometer slider that was low in the middle of the second pitch in 1B without missing it, and the ball flew wide and became an upset three-run shot over the middle fence. The team quickly turned the game around 4-2. With Choi Jeong's RBI double added in the bottom of the seventh inning, SSG advanced to fourth place with a 5-4 victory despite Samsung's Kim Sung-yoon Diaz's solo shot chase.

Oh Tae-gon was not aiming for a slider. "Lee Seung-hyun mainly threw fastballs and sliders, so he hit it with the idea of setting only the middle zone from the body rather than the pitch type and making my swing."

He thanked batting coach Kang Byung-sik. Oh Tae-gon "I fixed my batting position on the indoor practice field before the game. Coach Kang Byung-sik corrected the left shoulder because it was opened early and became an out-in swing, so I practiced that part, but the swing came out as I practiced, so a good hit came out."

Oh Tae-gon came out as a pinch hitter and made a strong impression on his fans by hitting a decisive shot, but he is also burdened as a pinch hitter.

Oh Tae-gon must produce a result with one at-bats"I go out for about three minutes, but I also think that if I can't do well, I'll lose because of me." Oh Tae-gon laughed, saying, "Wouldn't you let me go even if I can't do it once or twice now?"

SSG hitters are working hard, he said. "Play it after the game, and play it early even before the game. The results didn't come out, so I was chased in generalIt's hot now, but it starts faster. However, it will be difficult for each player because the results are not coming out. Still, I think it came up a little bit now. Our pitchers are holding up well, and the fielders are grateful, so I think we will be able to repay the rest of the game."
