On the 9th, CBS Nocut News reported that “A player from the US minor league and currently playing for a club in the metropolitan area performed violence beyond the degree, such as water torture and threats of weapons against his juniors during his school days.”
Reporter B, who was from a prestigious baseball junior high school in Gwangju, revealed, “I was beaten every day for a year with Player A.” “I was tortured in the bath and even my money was taken.”
According to the media, Player A harassed not only B, but also the people around B. Player A laid down Mr. B’s friend, Mr. C, on the floor of the lodge, threatened with a weapon, and sprayed insecticide in his mouth. It is known that Mr. C quit baseball in the end due to the shock of the day.
Afterwards, A player’s side refuted the fact that the relationship was too much different for this report.
A player’s official told Spotify News, “This article was written based on Mr. B’s unilateral assertion. There are many false facts or extremely exaggerated contents,” he refuted.
First of all, regarding the extortion of money and goods, he said, “There was no personal extortion,” he said. “Not only Mr. B, but also the baseball team members must have paid money, but player A was not personally drunk and bought the necessary goods of the members. Even Mr. B remembers that he bought a helmet for the baseball club.”
Regarding the fact of the assault, “I admitted to hitting the ass with a bat. I deeply apologized for this,” he said. “However, there was a group discipline that a senior in a junior high school gave to a senior in a junior high school, and there was a time that Mr. B was wrong. In addition, there were many cases where coaches disciplined their seniors and then forced them to discipline their juniors.”
However, “I have never beaten Mr. B’s head with a blunt, and there was no torture. I haven’t even harassed people around Mr. B and bullied them. It is said that hitting the hips until they bleed is a routine, but this is not true. Mr. B also admitted that he was not beaten without reason, but because he was wrong.”
In addition, “I remember that A was threatened with a knife to Mr. D, but I remember that A was intervened in the process of several seniors playing a prank on Mr. D, but A has never led such a prank. I have never put pesticides on my mouth at all.”
Meanwhile, it is known that A player’s club is confirming the facts in many ways as the arguments of player A and Mr. B sharply diverge.
Player A’s team official said, “We are checking the facts right now.” “There are many differences between player A’s statement and reporter B’s claim. I will try to understand the facts more clearly,” he said cautiously.
He added, “I informed the Korea Baseball Commission (KBO) Clean Baseball Center immediately after receiving the fact from Mr. B on the 24th of last month.” “A player was immediately excluded from training,” he added.
