LG Coach Yeom Kyeong-yeop said ahead of the visiting game against KT Wiz in the 2024 professional baseball exhibition game held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do on the 9th,
“In the game against San Diego, Lim Chan-gyu will start as a starter. 카지노사이트
As the game against San Diego is symbolic, we tried to use domestic starters.
“I was debating between Lim Chan-gyu and Choi Won-tae, but considering the regular league schedule,
I decided on Lim Chan-gyu,” he said.
Lim Chan-gyu, who we met that day, said, “I will throw the ball thinking it is the same game as the exhibition game,” and added,
“There are many great stars in San Diego, but I will play against (LG foreign hitter) Austin Dean.”
He added, “My velocity is very slow compared to MLB pitchers, but it may be unfamiliar to MLB hitters.
I will throw well as this is a game that many fans are paying attention to.
MLB San Diego
Personally, I think it will be a good experience.”
MLB San Diego and Los Angeles Dodgers will play the opening two-game series of the 2024 season at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul from the 20th to the 21st of this month.
MLB is holding the opening game in a foreign country to globalize baseball,
and Seoul was selected as the hosting location this year.
San Diego and the Dodgers will also play practice games against the KBO League LG Twins, Kiwoom Heroes,
and the Korean national baseball team prior to the opening two-game series.
LG plays a game against San Diego on the 18th.
It is even more meaningful because San Diego includes Korean infielder Kim Ha-seong and bullpen pitcher Ko Woo-seok.
Lim Chan-gyu said, “(Kim) Ha-seong recently said he needed Korean rosin, so I sent him some.
I think it will be fun to meet him after a long time.”
In addition, regarding Go Woo-seok, who had a great time at LG until last season, he said,
“I hope he comes to Korea as an opening entry.”
