“Choi Hyung-woo’s new record for the most bases in the KBO League is truly amazing.”

Professional baseball KIA Tigers coach Lee Beom-ho was amazed at the performance of veteran hitter Choi Hyeong-woo.

KIA will play against SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon at 6:30 pm on the 13th.

KIA, who met SSG the day before, was in trouble as starting pitcher Yang Hyun-jong was shaken and gave up 5 runs first. However, thanks to the concentration of the batting line, including veteran hitter Choi Hyung-woo, they won 13-7.

Choi Hyung-woo completed his duties as the number 4 hitter 100%, recording 3 hits in 6 at-bats, 6 RBIs, and 1 run. On this day, he also set a new record for the most bases in the KBO league

Choi Hyung-woo has a batting average of 0.282 (67 hits in 238 at-bats) this year, with 11 home runs, 56 RBIs, and 37 runs. He has an on-base percentage of 0.357.

KIA, which recorded 38 wins, 1 draw, and 27 losses in the season, regained first place.

KIA, which has had a good trend, will attempt its second consecutive win with ace James Nail on this day. Coach Lee Beom-ho said, “I think it’s really amazing that Choi Hyung-woo can play without getting sick until that age (41 years old). Choi Hyung-woo's record actually started at the age of 26, right? “It is a tremendous record,” he praised. He continued, “Choi Hyung-woo is expected to be able to play for another three years. In the past, senior Song Jin-woo also played until he was 45 years old. Choi Hyung-woo thinks he can do more because he is a batsman. During Choi Hyung-woo's career as a player, I rarely heard him talk about being sick. “I think he has something innate,” he explained. He emphasized that it is important for key players to play without injury. He said, “When key players get injured and miss the team, the team is a little shaken. “I think the team that can play the season without players getting hurt is the best,” he said. He said that he was confident that he could win after seeing the players' concentration and piling up runners the day before. Manager Lee said, “Lee Chang-jin is a player who knows what to do at the plate. Yesterday, I saw Lee Chang-jin happy as he walked. “As I watched Socrates Brito endure the hit and walk, I felt that the players wanted to win this game,” he said. “If you get on base, pile up runners, and settle the score, there is a high possibility of a big score. “Yesterday he saw the hitters putting in effort,” he explained.  19가이드03
