“I got lucky. I was trying not to miss it.”

Prior to this game, Kim Hyun-soo’s batting average was 0.343. The situation is showing good pace. However, he said, “Honestly, I don’t think the batting condition is good. He is still preparing and it is a process that is getting better. When he comes into a game as a designated hitter, he’s trying to move a lot in the dugout,” he said.

Kim Hyun-soo is currently serving as the interim captain. He is filling the void left by Oh Ji-hwan’s injury. He said, “(Oh) Ji-hwan is good at it, so I go and play the role of temporary captain comfortably. However, he can be cluttered with a lot of injured people on the team. Right now, I think other players should show it, not hold on.”
