Kang Baekho’s tension is not bad

[엑스포츠뉴스 고척, 김현세 기자] KT Wiz Kang Baek-ho raised the sense of actual combat. It was a game in which various inspection results were obtained from long hits to two rooms and walking.

Kang Baek-ho recorded 2 hits (1 home run), 2 RBIs and 1 walk in a practice match with Kiwoom Heroes held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 17th. KT led Kang Baek-ho and Jang Seong-woo to the end of the ninth inning, but Ahn Young-myeong allowed Jeon Byeong-woo to tie one point and timely doubles, resulting in a 3-3 draw.

Kang Baek-ho said that he is more excited because the process he has been preparing for since the spring camp seems to produce results. After the game, he said,’The tension is not bad right now’, and’I think I can see the ball well because I have a good sense. Now, to some extent, I am satisfied. He said that what I prepared for the spring camp seems to come out little by little.

The result is the former at-bat. In the first two at-bats, long hits came in succession. At the beginning of the first inning, Kang Baek-ho became 1st and 2nd base with Cho Yong-ho and Yuhan-joon walking at the beginning of the 1st inning.

Baekho Kang also threw a 140km/h straight ball thrown by Kiwoom starting pitcher Josh Smith to the outside of the right wall in the absence of a single player in the first 3rd inning. In the third at-bat at the beginning of the 5th inning, he picked a walk from Kim Sun-ki, completed the previous at-bat and changed to Kwon Dong-jin.

Kang Baek-ho played quickly without being unfamiliar with the new foreign pitcher Smith, Kiwoom. In the first place, he said,’Because he was a new foreign player, he tried to see a lot of the ball’, but he said,’It was a quick game.’ He said, “I have played three games so far, but in the first game I tried to see a lot of the pitcher’s ball, and from the second game, I focused on contact. Today, too, I tried to see a lot of balls, but I also tried to hit them boldly,’ he said.

Both of the first two at-bats resulted in a match within two pitches. Kang Baek-ho said,’In fact, the difference wasn’t great,’ and’the timing was a little different. In the first at-bat, the ball direction was okay, but it didn’t go far. But in the second at-bat, I tried to play with a fastball and a hitting point in front, but the result was good.
