(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Gyeong-yoon = U.S. Professional Baseball Major League (MLB) Tampa Bay Race Choi Ji-man (30) announced that he would like to play in the KBO League in the future like Shin-soo Choo (39, Shinsegae Group E-Mart).
After finishing spring camp training held at Port Charlotte Sports Park in Florida, USA on the 27th (Korean time) on the 27th (Korean time), Choi Ji-man was asked,’Do you want to return to Korea like Choo Shin-soo later?’ in a video interview with local media.
He said, “It’s a really good road,” and “(Chu) Shinsoo’s path is my path.”
He said, “If Shinsoo Choo plays an active part, the players from the major leagues will have a good image (in Korea),” he said. “I want to have good skills and show a good figure in Korea.”
He said, “Will I focus on MLB for the time being?” he said, “I will try until I do it at MLB. I want to gain a lot of experience. I want to go to Japan and I want to go to Korea.”

Choi Ji-man was also asked about the topic of’Leg Torn’, which was a hot topic last season.
As a first baseman, he usually increased his flexibility with Pilates, and received a lot of applause for his leg torn for the difficult throws of infielders.
He laughed, saying, “I couldn’t do Pilates this non-season due to the spread of a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19),” he said. “I trained to draw tires instead, but that wasn’t easy.”
“I believe the beasts will help (by throwing the ball correctly) not to tear the leg,” he said.

One local media asked,’Isn’t it possible to do Pilates in the United States?’ and Choi Ji-man said, “You must have an expert. The corona 19 problem is severe here too,” and “the team will also hate meeting outsiders.
When asked,’Was there any difficulties due to Corona 19 when training in non-seasonal Korea?’, “I did a lot of outdoor training because the fitness club was closed,” and said, “I trained like high school after a long time. A fitness club opened before leaving the United States. He said, “I quickly lifted my body.”

I shook my head about the switch hitter transformation I tried at the beginning of last season.
Choi Ji-man said, “I don’t want it,” and said, “I am confident as a left-handed hitter.”
When they say that they are always bright and raise the atmosphere of the team, he said, “You have to laugh to get energy,” and “This energy saves the team atmosphere. So, I try to laugh more.”
