“Kang Baek-ho seems to have lost a lot of weight. The weight in his face has also been lost, and he has become much more handsome. I feel younger.”온라인바카라

KT Wiz coach Lee Gang-cheol talked about Kang Baek-ho, who returned to the first team, in an interview before the game with the Kiwoom Heroes of the ‘2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League’ held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 12th. KT on this day Kim Sang-soo (shortstop) – Kim Min-hyuk (center fielder) – Anthony Alford (left fielder) – Park Byung-ho (1st baseman) – Kang Baek-ho (designated hitter) – Jang Seong-woo (catcher) – Hwang Jae-kyun (3rd baseman) – Lee Ho-yeon (2nd baseman) – Cho Yong-ho (Right fielder) formed the starting lineup. The starting pitcher is William Cuevas.

Kang Baek-ho is recording a batting average of .207 (50 hits in 182 at-bats), 5 homers, 29 RBIs, and an OPS of .768 in 50 games this season. He couldn’t play the last game against Lotte on the 6th of last month due to poor condition, but was registered in the first team on the 11th and played as a pinch hitter on the 12th. In this game, he starts as the designated hitter number 5.

Manager Lee Kang-cheol said, “I went to the game yesterday, and when we talked, he said he was okay, so he put it in the starting lineup. He returned to the first team and asked if he was okay, and he said he was fine and that everything was getting better.” 

Director Lee Kang-cheol said, “It seems that Kang Baek-ho has lost a lot of weight.” He also feels younger,” he laughed. 

Foreign pitcher Wes Benjamin won the game on the 12th by fighting hard with 6 hits, 1 walk, 11 strikeouts and 2 runs in 7⅔ innings. Director Lee Kang-cheol said, “I really liked An Woo-jin’s ball yesterday. Still, because Benjamin played an equal match, the hitters were able to attack An Woo-jin without losing their concentration. Certainly, the pitch seems to have improved. The release point has changed a little and the vertical movement has improved,” he said, looking forward to Benjamin’s performance. 

Regarding Kim Jae-yoon, who achieved 150 saves in the last game, coach Lee Kang-cheol said, “Kim Jae-yoon has suffered a lot. There were many matches where I had to fight and pitched in difficult situations. Still, he did a really good job and made 150 saves. I think it’s a really meaningful record like 100 wins. He started as a fielder and has now become a successful closer. I want to congratulate him,” he congratulated Kim Jae-yoon on achieving 150 saves.
