NC Parsons and Song Myeong-gi, side by side, have a good fight… Shin-su Choo’thumbs up’ (total)

Parsons scored 3 innings without a run Myeongki Song 4 innings scored 1

(Changwon = Yonhap News) Reporter Choi In-young = Pro baseball NC Dinos starting pitcher Wes Parsons and Song Myung-ki fight side by side, raising expectations for the season.

Veteran hitter Choo Shin-soo (SSG Landers) from the major leagues also praised their performance.

NC gave Wes Parsons and Song Myeong-gi a total of 7 innings in a demonstration game against SSG Landers at Changwon NC Park in Gyeongnam on the 21st, giving only 1 point.

With their good fights, the NC defeated SSG 11-3 and won the opening game of the demonstration game.

Both Parsons and Song Myung-ki are pitchers who will be active starting this season.

However, before entering the regular season, it was necessary to check their skills once again.

Parsons is a new foreign pitcher making his debut in the KBO League this year, and Song Myung-ki joined the starting line in the second half of last year.

On this day, as Parsons and Song Myung-ki played a good fight in a row, NC relieved worries and raised expectations.

Parsons fought hard with 2 hits in 3 innings, 1 walk, 4 strikeouts, and no run.

He played fastballs, curves, sliders, change-ups, and two-seam fastballs evenly, and he also recorded a maximum speed of 151 km/h.

Parsons was a pitcher with little information. In the United States, there were not many major league appearances, with a total of 33 games and 39⅔innings. Moreover, due to the aftermath of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19), last year there was no record of appearances in the minor leagues as well as the major leagues.

However, Parsons pitched powerfully, returning big hitter Choo Shin-soo from the major leagues to strikeouts in the 1st and 3rd batters.

Choo Shin-soo, who is a new start in the KBO league this year, has not yet adapted to Korean baseball, and as this day was his first real match, he did not actively hit the bat.

However, unlike his fighting spirit of “I just don’t want to die,” Choo Shin-soo struck out in front of Parsons and was humiliated.

After the game, Choo Shin-soo said, “The Parsons had a good pitch. It helped prepare for the coming season.”

Parsons said, “It’s always fun to play against a player with a great career in the United States like Shin-soo Choo. I’m looking forward to Shin-soo Choo this season, and I hope everyone can play well together.”

Song Myeong-gi kept 4 innings with 2 hits, 1 walk, 1 strikeout and 1 run.

Although he gave a point with two explosives and two hits in the fourth inning, he regained stability and prevented further runs.

In the 5th inning, he caught Choo Shin-soo with a floating ball and blocked his first on-base.

Choo Shin-soo was greeted by Song Myeong-gi while running to Doug-out after being out, and gave him a’high-class praise’ saying, “I like the ball.” Song Myeong-gi replied with a laugh at bash.

Song Myung-gi, “I was honored to be able to face off against Choo Shin-soo,” and said, “It’s okay to hit a hit, so I wanted to play with a fastball, but as Choo Shin-soo went to the bench, I laughed at me without knowing.

Song Myung-ki started as a bullpen last year, and then took a position as a starting pitcher in the second half of the year, and also contributed to the NC’s first championship by becoming a victorious pitcher in the Korean series.

My shoulders have become heavier this year. As Gu Chang-mo’s injury made it impossible to join the opening game, Song Myeong-gi must start with NC’s’Native 1st Selection’.

Song Myeong-gi raised expectations by struggling in the first game of the demonstration game.
