Inauguration ceremony on the 26th… Vice-Chairman Attendance
On the 20th, with the start of the pro baseball demonstration game, a meeting place between the SSG Landers and Incheon City will be held on the 25th. It was reported that a meeting with Incheon Mayor Park Nam-chun and Choo Shin-soo was scheduled at the meeting on the day.
According to the city of Incheon on the 18th, the SSG Landers and Samsung Lions will be held at Munhak Stadium on the 25th, and Incheon City officials, including Mayor Park Nam-chun, will visit and encourage the athletes. This is the first time that Incheon City officials, including Mayor Park, have met the athletes after Shinsegae Group E-Mart acquired SK Wyverns.
It is known that SSG will hold an inaugural ceremony on the 26th after a meeting with Incheon City, with vice chairman Jeong Yong-jin and Shinsegae Group in attendance. As a professional baseball team related to Incheon, the game will begin in earnest.
Incheon City expects that the club will present a variety of events that can be held with the citizens of Incheon, as SSG, which marks its first year in its foundation, emphasizes locality. Shinsegae Group released the team name on the 5th of last month and said, “In the process of internal discussions, we considered whether we could make good use of the characteristics of the Incheon region or represent Incheon as the most important factor in determining the team name.
Incheon City is planning to actively support the soft landing in Incheon in the first year of its foundation through continuous meetings with the club, and explained that SSG will also make various efforts to captivate Incheon fans.
The interest in major leaguer Choo Shin-soo, who is scrambling for the first time in Korea this season, is also hot. Choo Shin-soo plays an unofficial debut match in the KBO League in Changwon, Gyeongnam, and moves to his hometown of Busan, where he collides with Lotte on the 22nd and 23rd.
Choo Shin-soo will stand at the Sajik Stadium 21 years after graduating from Busan High School, and Choo Shin-soo’s SSG and Lee Dae-ho’s Lotte will go through a pilot game search and then stick properly during the opening of the regular league in Incheon.
Shin-soo Choo, who entered Korea last month, said at a press conference, “It took a long time to come to Korea and I made a hard decision with my family, so I will prepare as well as I did in the United States and play the game with love and passion.” → Related articles 12 pages (Shin-soo Choo·SSG’Sec’ appeared… Tomorrow’s Demonstration Playball)
