“Defense comes first.”
Doosan Bears head coach Lee Seung-yeop expressed his concerns about running the catcher ahead of the KT Wiz game in Jamsil on the 16th. Coach Lee’s concerns are deepening recently as Yang Eui-ji (36), the main catcher and the center of the team’s offense, left the line due to a side injury.토토사이트
Doosan lost 0-1 against KT in Jamsil on the 15th in an empty space with only 2 hits. Starting pitcher Raul Alcantara did his part with 7 innings of scoreless pitching, but was unable to win due to lack of support from the other line. On this day, Alcantara achieved battery breathing with catcher Jang Seung-hyun. Jang Seung-hyeon helped Alcantara achieve a clean pitch with a good pitcher lead and flawless defense. In the beginning of the 6th inning, KT’s double steel operation was stopped. However, in the offense, he was silent with no hits in 3 at-bats, showing a contrast in defense and offense.
Director Lee said, “I can’t help it because Yang Eui-ji is missing. Jang Seung-hyun is digesting the bottom line, but he is showing good form in defense, so I am satisfied.” “Attack is a bonus to the catcher. This is where defense should come first. When thinking about offense, Park Yoo-yeon (as starting catcher) should go out, but when thinking about defense, Jang Seung-hyun’s weight inevitably increases.”
Back-up catcher Park Yoo-yeon (25) is showing off her talent in offense by producing long hits in August. However, since his total first team appearances are less than 30 (23 games), it is obviously unreasonable to entrust him to his hometown as a starting player right away. Coach Lee plans to endure as much as possible based on the combination of starter Jang Seung-hyun and backup Park Yoo-yeon until Yang Eui-ji returns.
