 ‘Defending champion’ SSG Landers failed to achieve a single win in the semi-playoffs (quasi-PO) and was eliminated at the speed of light. SSG lost 6-7 in the 3rd semi-PO game against NC Dinos held at Changwon NC Park on the 25th. SSG, who had been pushed to the brink by losing the first and second games at home, was unable to turn the game around on the road and ended the season with three consecutive losses. SSG's three-game losing streak is somewhat shocking. SSG, which achieved the KBO League's first 'Wire-to-Wire Championship' by never falling from the lead from the opening game of the regular season to the end of last year's regular season, aimed to win the Korean Series for the second consecutive year. Until early June, it seemed like they were cruising toward winning the championship for the second year in a row, forming the top three with LG and Lotte. However, due to a slump at the end of the season, they ended up finishing the regular season in 3rd place....

  Lee Kang-in of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) saved his team from the brink of defeat with his outstanding performance. Lee Kang-in played well as a substitute in the second half of the 2023-2024 French Ligue 1 round 31 match against Le Havre held at Parc des Princes in Paris, France on the 28th (Korean time). Lee Kang-in started the game on the bench. PSG started the first half trailing 1-2. Faced with a difficult situation, PSG coach Luis Enrique brought in Lee Kang-in and Kylian Mbappe at the start of the second half. Lee Kang-in, who came in as a substitute, led the attack with his lively movements. He shook up the Le Havre defense with his agile dribbling and active forward play. Despite Lee Kang-in's performance, PSG allowed one more goal in the 16th minute of the second half and fell behind by two goals, 1-3. In the midst of the crisis, PSG trailed by one goal when Ashraf Hakimi scored a makeover goal in the 33rd minute of the second half. In the 5th minute of added time in the...

 Ah, now that I’m older, I can’t outrun my juniors. In some ways, 170 wins may not be a very important record, but it feels good to be celebrated like this. “I feel like the team has become one.” This is a pleasant complaint from KIA Tigers 'big pitcher' Yang Hyun-jong, who was unable to avoid being showered with water by his juniors who wanted to congratulate him on achieving 170 wins. KIA won a resounding 13-2 against Gocheok Kiwoom Heroes on April 25. With this victory, KIA, which reached its 20th win (7 losses) of the season, succeeded in breaking the previous record of 28 games, achieved in 2017 and 1993, which was KIA's minimum record of 20 wins. KIA won the combined championship (regular season and Korean series championship) in both seasons (the 1993 club name was Haitai). The pitcher who kept the starting mound on the day when the club record was broken was Yang Hyun-jong. Yang Hyun-jong gave up only 4 hits and 2 runs in 7 innings on this day. He allowed only one w...

 The defensive training conducted by former coach ‘Yasin’ Kim Seong-geun himself had a reputation for being harsh. Players lose their energy by hitting fungo (ground balls for defensive training) without even having time to catch their breath. It was also a kind of mental test.  The tenacity that Choi Jeong (37, SSG Landers) showed on the field was enough to make even coach Kim Seong-geun hold his tongue. In October 2006, Coach Kim, who was appointed as the head coach of SK Wyverns (now SSG) and coached Choi Jeong in the final camp, did not show any signs of hardship even though he made 1,000 pungos and 1,000 free bets every day, but rather looked at himself with a venomous expression. I was very impressed with the young player I was watching. Coach Kim even looked back and said that among his many students, Choi Jeong was the only one who 100% completed his training. Choi Jeong, acknowledged by Yashin as a ‘poisonous breed’, has grown every season. He continued to maintain go...

 This is the full text of the victim of the great record. The professional baseball Lotte Giants became a victim of a record-breaking game at home, and had to allow someone else's team's banquet to be held at home. And they even gave up the game. Lotte suffered a 7-12 loss in the game against SSG Landers held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 24th. After escaping an 8-game losing streak, the upward trend of 3 wins and 1 draw was broken. Lotte had a good start in the beginning. Successfully scored the first two runs in the first inning. They were immediately tied 2-4 in the second inning, but they scored five runs in the bottom of the third to make it 7-4. He took the lead early in the game by pounding SSG starter Robert Dugger.  But in just one moment, the atmosphere changed. It was okay until 2 outs in the top of the 5th inning. However, with two outs and no runners on base, the first pitch thrown to Choi Jeong went over the fence. It was the moment when a new record of 468 ho...

Coach, I will go to the first team on Friday (26th).” LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop mentioned relief pitcher Jung Woo-young ahead of the second game of a three-game series against the Samsung Lions in the '2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League' held at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 24th. Immediately after the end of last season, Jung Woo-young underwent surgery to remove bone fragments from his right elbow. Afterwards, he underwent a rehabilitation period in the Futures League, and is close to returning to the first team for the first time this season. Before the opening, Jung Woo-young was given a ‘call-up option’ by Coach Yeom. After getting into a satisfactory physical condition, I contacted Coach Yeom directly after receiving reports from Futures League Manager Seo Yong-bin and Futures League Pitching Coach Kyung Hyun-ho. Director Yeom said, "Jung Woo-young texted me saying, 'Director, I'll be there on Friday' because I wasn't answering the phone. So...
