Lee Yong-gyu’s first hit of the season across the middle of the baseball field marked the start of professional baseball in 2021. In the opening game held today (3rd), only 10% of the seats were gathered due to the corona, but the cheering was hot. SSG and Lotte’s’Distribution Derby’, which received attention due to the confrontation between Choo Shin-soo and Lee Dae-ho, promised to be next.
