11K life struggle from 192cm Shin Dong-gun of Cheongwon High School decorated with the Golden Lion before his debut



On the 21st, a match between Cheongwongo and Mulgeumgo was held at Mokdong Baseball Stadium in Seoul at the '78th Golden Lion National High School Baseball Tournament and Weekend League King of Kings Tournament (co-hosted by Dong-A Ilbo, Sports Donga, and Korea Baseball Softball Association).' Shin Dong-gun of Cheongwon High School is posing.

“This is the first time in my life that I have struck out more than 10.”

Shin Dong-geon (17), a second-year student at Cheongwon High School, won the 2nd round with the water safe on the 8th day of the 78th Golden Lion National High School Baseball Tournament and Weekend League King of Kings Tournament (co-hosted by Dong-A Ilbo, Sports Donga, and Korea Baseball Softball Association) held at Mokdong Stadium on the 21st (32). Kang) and led the team to a 5-4 victory with a comeback pitch in 5.1 innings, allowing 7 hits, 1 walk, 11 strikeouts, and 1 run.

The batters were helpless against Shin Dong-geon's pitch coming down from his tall height of 192 cm. Shin Dong-gun continued his fight using a fastball with a top speed of 147 km/h, a curveball with a large drop, and a slider. The highlight of the game was the scene in which he allowed a left-field hit to leadoff hitter Kim Woo-sung in the bottom of the 4th inning with a 2-0 lead, and then struck out 5 batters in a row with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th inning. In the bottom of the 4th inning, he caught the opposing batter off guard by adjusting the height of his breaking ball, and in the bottom of the 5th inning, he showed off his control by hitting a fastball to the edge of the strike zone at a favorable ball count.

Although the bullpen and defense could not protect his victory, Cheongwon High School gained some margin thanks to Shin Dong-gun's good pitching that day. This is because, following Shin Dong-gun, only two more pitchers were used: Moon Jeong-ho (0.2 innings, 2 runs) and Kim Seon-jung (3 innings, 1 run). Cheongwon High School coach Yoon Seong-hoon said, “(Shin) Dong-geon made me think, ‘I can go as far as I can go.’” He added, “As a result, the long innings were a big help.”

Shin Dong-gun, who graduated from Suyu Elementary School and Jayang Middle School, began to stand out this year. Standing out for his tall height and strikeout ability, he struck out as many as 33 times in 24 innings in 5 games this season, including today. There are also similar types of role models to refer to. They are Woojin Ahn (Kiwoom Heroes) and Shintaro Fujinami (New York Mets). Shin Dong-gun said, “I’ve really liked it for a long time, so I often watch and study pitching videos.”

The only thing left to do is to improve with this day’s appearance. Shin Dong-gun said, “I felt a bit disappointed when I pitched today (21st). “But once the game started, I wasn’t as nervous as I thought, so I think both my fastball and breaking ball came out well,” he said. “The coach gave me the confidence to overcome any situation on my own.” Thanks to that, he recorded double-digit strikeouts for the first time. He started playing baseball in the third grade of elementary school, and it was the first time in his life,” he said.

The gaze is directed higher. Cheongwon High School will play in the round of 16 against Deoksu High School on the 23rd. Shin Dong-gun cannot pitch due to the tournament regulations requiring a four-day rest when pitching 91 or more pitches, but Manager Yoon emphatically said, “Even though Dong-gun cannot appear, there are good pitchers in the third year as well, so it is worth a try.” Shin Dong-gun said, “I came this far thanks to my brothers,” and added, “I will work hard in strengthening exercises for my next appearance, and I will also cheer hard in the next game.”

Lee Jeong-hoo, 1 hit in 5 at-bats for three days in a row Batting average fell to 0.244





Lee Jeong-hoo

Lee Jeong-hoo (San Francisco Giants) hit 1 hit in 5 at-bats in three consecutive games.

Lee Jeong-hoo played as the number one hitter and center fielder in the MLB visiting game against the Philadelphia Phillies held at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA on the 6th (Korean time) and recorded 1 hit in 5 at-bats.

Since the start of the four-game series against Philadelphia on the 4th, Lee Jeong-hoo has hit 1 hit in 5 at-bats in each game.

Although he produced hits in every game, a drop in batting average was inevitable. Lee Jeong-hoo's batting average dropped by 2 leagues every day during this period, reaching 0.244 (32 hits in 131 at-bats) on this day.

Lee Jeong-hoo, who retired due to a left fielder's line drive out in the top of the first inning, pulled the curve on the sixth pitch and produced a hit to right in the third inning with one out and no runner on base.

Lee Jeong-hoo retired with a fly ball in the 5th inning with 2 outs and runners on 1st and 1st and 2nd bases with 1 out in the 7th inning, trailing 3-5.

It was an even more disappointing moment because Tyro Estrada hit a two-run shot in the seventh inning at bat, and Philadelphia's new pitcher Gregory Soto was shaken with two walks and no walks as soon as he took the mound.

In the 9th inning, when the game was tied 4-5 and there were no runners on base with two outs, Lee Jeong-hoo touched closer Jose Alvarado's sinker and ended up with a fly ball to right field.

As the game ended, San Francisco had lost three in a row, while Philadelphia had won five in a row.

In the top of the first inning, with two outs and no runners on base, Kim Do-young hit a fastball from starter Ha Young-min and made a solo arch that went over the left field fence. On the other hand, Kiwoom retired in the bottom of the first inning with bases loaded and one out when Kim Hwi-jip hit a double play. In the bottom of the second inning, with 2 outs and runners on 1st and 2nd base, Lee Yong-gyu ended up hitting a grounder to first base. KIA scored a valuable score in the top of the 5th inning.

Kiwoom, which failed to score even a single point, kept its batting line silent even in the bottom of the 5th inning with 1 out and runners on 1st and 3rd base and in the bottom of the 6th inning with 1 out and 2nd and 3rd base on base. However, in the bottom of the 8th inning, the game came back to square one. After two outs, Kim Jae-hyun reached base with a double and was in scoring position, and Joo Seong-won hit a slider from right-handed bullpen Jeon Sang-hyun for a two-run home run that tied the game. The two teams, unable to determine superiority or inferiority in the regular innings, entered extra time. KIA created an opportunity with bases loaded with two outs in the top of the 10th inning with hits by Won-Jun Choi and Ho-Ryeong Kim and a walk by Do-Young Kim, and Hyung-Woo Choi hit a 2-RBI single. Then, Socrates Brito produced a timely hit that drove the wedge. KIA closing pitcher Hae-Young Jeong, who appeared in the bottom of the 10th inning, treated Jae-Hyun Kim and Seong-Won Joo with a fly ball to right field and a ground ball to shortstop, respectively, with one out and runners on first and second base, and earned his 9th save of the season. The Samsung Lions won 7-3, 8th inning, in a home game against the LG Twins held at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu. After LG's attack ended in the top of the 8th inning, the game was stopped due to rain. The referee, who stopped the game at 8:54 p.m., monitored the situation for 33 minutes, but declared a rain cold when the rain did not decrease. Samsung, which achieved three consecutive wins, achieved its 14th win of the season (1 draw, 11 losses) and jumped to a tie for 3rd place. On the other hand, LG, which failed to win three games in a row, had a season record of 13 wins, 2 draws, and 12 losses, and fell to 6th place. Samsung showed cohesion by scoring 7 points in just the 6th inning. Seong-gyu Lee led the attack with his first career grand slam, and Ja-wook Koo, Min-ho Kang, and Ji-hyuk Ryu added timely hits. Samsung foreign starting pitcher Danny Reyes pitched 5 innings, allowing 5 hits, 1 walk, 5 strikeouts, and 3 runs. LG starter Lim Chan-gyu failed to achieve his first win in his 6th appearance of the season. He held a scoreless streak until the 5th inning, but collapsed in the 6th inning, giving up 3 runs. To make matters worse, even his batting lineup was poor, with only 5 hits. The initial atmosphere was led by LG. In the top of the first inning, leadoff hitter Hong Chang-gi got on base with a single to left and then stepped on second base when Kim Hyun-soo hit a grounder to first base.
