Han Seok-hyun (29), who NC recruited from the ‘Futures FA’ market, reported the first hit as a final hit and gave the new team its first official game win.
Han Seok-hyun started as right fielder No. 7 in an exhibition game against Doosan held at Changwon NC Park on the 16th.
In the first at-bat in the second inning, he attacked Doosan starter Choi Won-joon, but withdrew with a floating ball to center fielder. Up to this at-bat, he had no hits in his 7th at-bat in 4 exhibition games.
Around the time of nervousness, an important opportunity came.
Bottom of the 4th inning with a score of 0-0. Leading player Kim Seong-wook hit with a heavy hit and Cheon Jae-hwan with a surprise bunt hit to secure the first and second bases.
However, as Oh Young-soo and Kim Joo-won stepped back with looking strikeouts one after another, 2 out 1st and 2nd base. Han Seok-hyun stood in the second at-bat when he thought the chance was lost. Choi Won-jun, who threw the scheduled 60 pitches, was replaced by left-hander Kim Ho-jun. It was a somewhat burdensome situation for Han Seok-hyun, who was on a no-hit streak.
However, he showed concentration and attacked the 141 km fast ball on the second pitch and dropped it in front of the center fielder. A timely hit that became the first RBI.
Thanks to Han Seok-hyun’s timely hit, which became the final blow, NC won 3-0 and reported the first victory in the demonstration game after 3 consecutive losses.
After the game, Han Seok-hyun said, “I played the game with a really earnest and desperate heart.” An unusual feeling for an exhibition match. There was a reason.
The day before, on the 15th, against Doosan. Han Seok-hyun, who started as the 9th center fielder, was replaced while defending in the top of the second inning without standing a single at-bat.
Defensive judgment was a problem. 먹튀검증
Leading batter Kim Min-hyeok made a hit by misjudgment of the ball he hit. He took a slight step back to right field and came forward in a hurry, but could not block the hit. A batted ball that could have been caught if he had correctly judged the batted ball and had taken the first shot.
Starting pitcher Shin Min-hyeok, who struggled with 27 pitches in the first inning, struggled with a whopping 14 pitches against the follow-up hitter, Kim Dae-han. After barely catching Kim Dae-han as a floating ball and becoming the first company, the NC bench called in Han Seok-hyun and put in Cheon Jae-hwan. It’s like throwing a message.
