KT does not have a catcher.

 Jang Seong-woo and Kim Jun-tae, two alumni of Gyeongnam High School, can wear catcher masks side by side. His defense is above average and his bat performance is also highly appreciated. However, since the exhibition game, coach Lee Kang-chul has been agonizing over the appointment of backup catcher Jang Sung-woo. As Jang Sung-woo alone cannot play this season, he had to look forward to the growth of rookie Kang Hyun-woo including Kim Joon-tae. However, Lee's concern grew as he revealed defense problems in the exhibition game, which he played with only two backup catcher. So what he fiddled with was the "catcher Kang Baek-ho card."

Catcher Kang Baek-ho deserved to think that he was puzzled. He only played as an outfielder, first baseman, and designated hitter after he entered the professional league. If he only thought about "Kang Baek-ho after he first entered the professional league," it is natural for him to question the meaning of catcher Kang and whether he can see the catcher well.

However, this is just a misunderstanding caused by his inability to grasp how great a player Kang was during his high school days. Those who knew him during Seoul High School generally rate him in three ways: as a batter, as a pitcher, and as a catcher. He was the ace pitcher of the team who threw fast balls up to 154 kilometers, and as a batter, he showed level swing and the scout team from 10 different clubs showed off their level swing and praised him. One more thing that was evaluated as a catcher was Kang Baek-ho. Believe it or not, he was also the cleanup hitter in his freshman year, when he was actually a catcher at the time. He made his debut as a catcher.

We need to hear from current Premier BC coach Yoo Jeong-min, who served as the head coach of Seoul High School at the time. At the time, Yoo praised Kang for his outstanding sense of baseball, saying, "He made the best player wear a catcher mask." In other words, he spent three years in high school regardless of positions, including catcher, infielder, outfielder or pitcher. So his nickname was "baseball genius" and he was selected for the youth team in 2016-17. However, when he was a third grader, he was called a catcher, and the prevailing view is that he would never wear a catcher mask. However, he wore a catcher mask in the international arena while Cho Dae-hyun (KT) was out of injury for a while. 토토사이트넷

This is why "Captor Kang Baek-ho" is never strange. In other words, it was a position Kang Baek-ho himself had enough experience.

Coach Yoo Jeong-min added another comment, saying, "Of course, (Kang) Baekho was used as a catcher due to school circumstances, but there must be other clothes that fit him as a pro. It is the coaching staff's job to find him. Of course, he taught me to do the basics even if I raise him as a catcher. What's left is up to me and the leaders." He stressed that no matter which position he fosters, a person with baseball sense as good as Kang can succeed somehow.

Is catcher Kang still awkward? No. He has already worn a catcher's mask since he was a freshman at Seoul High School, and what's more surprising is that he made his catcher's debut in the international arena first. As expected, he is good at baseball.
