‘Hidden Card’ Kim Min-hyuk, Tied the Score After Overcoming Injury… KS Ticket Issuance Completed
KT’s batting lineup is full of right-handed hitters.
Left-handed hitter Kim Min-hyuk plays a big role as a pinch hitter despite a thigh injury.
“Kim Min-hyuk’s injury is more painful than Kang Baek-ho’s."
KT Wiz coach Lee Kang-cheol said this when asked about Kang Baek-ho, who was out of action due to a torn side muscle ahead of the professional baseball playoffs (PO) against NC Dinos.
Kim Min-hyuk suffered a thigh muscle injury during a game last September and can only be used as a pinch hitter. 카지노사이트
Expressed greater disappointment over not being able to use key outfielder Kim Min-hyuk as a starter than over the season absence of main hitter Kang Baek-ho.
There was a reason.
In this year's regular season, Kim Min-hyuk showed a strong performance against NC starters Shin Min-hyuk (0.364), Tanner Turley (0.333), and key bullpen Ryu Jin-wook (1.000).
In particular, most of KT's batting lineup consists of right-handed hitters, and most of NC's bullpen consists of right-handed hitters, so left-handed hitter Kim Min-hyuk was essential.
Coach Lee Kang-cheol was even more disappointed because Kim Min-hyuk showed impressive performances in every important game during the regular season.
Just like Director Lee's expectations and regrets, Kim Min-hyuk did his part in NC and PO.
He produced a hit and a walk as a pinch hitter in Game 1 on the 30th of last month and Game 2 on the 31st of last month, and also picked up a walk as a pinch hitter and got on base in Game 4 on the 3rd.
Hidden Card' Minhyuk Kim exploded again in the 5th game between NC and PO held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 5th.
In the bottom of the 5th inning, when he was down 0-2, with 1 out and runners on 1st and 3rd base, he stepped in as a pinch hitter for Oh Yoon-seok and targeted opposing starter Shin Min-hyuk, who had previously pitched without allowing any runs.
Shin Min-hyuk threw five consecutive change-ups, his main weapon, which fell to the outside of the left-handed batter's standard, and played a full-count match.
Shin Min-hyuk threw a change-up again, and Kim Min-hyuk did not miss it.
With an exciting swing, he hit a timely double that fell to the right side of right field to tie the game.
It was a golden hit that brought the game back to square one.
Kim Min-hyuk, who ran with his teeth clenched in a half-hearted manner, clenched his fists and expressed his joy after landing on second base.
KT brought back the flow of the game with Kim Min-hyuk's 'one shot'.
KT stepped on the stepping stone set by Kim Min-hyuk and succeeded in a comeback in the bottom of the 7th inning, defeating NC 3-2 and winning a ticket to the Korean Series.
