-Choi Jin-cheol voluntarily goes to the 2nd Army!

… AT Thunders captain Choi Jin-cheol reportedly said he would voluntarily go to the second team after the shocking Children’s Day loss… … Meanwhile, the captaincy of Doan AT Thunders without Choi Jin-cheol is in jeopardy…

┗The old bastard has finally gone downㅡ

┗┗ㄹㅇ I don’t have to watch him get stabbed 5–6 times and bleed haha

┗Woo Kwan-hyung also retired… Choi Jin-cheol also went to the 2nd Army… A lot of time has passed.

┗┗Ajaeyo…

┗There were times when shock therapy was necessary

┗Oh, don’t leave out Jincheol’s ham. We were the only ones who couldn’t eat itㅡ

-AT Thunders! 2 wins in a row! A winning series after a long time!

… AT Thunders won 7:3…, AT Thunders, who suffered a shocking comeback loss on Children’s Day, won the Children’s Day series with a win today…

┗ㅅㅂ After seeing them lose on Children’s Day, I almost had a ‘hearing’ for the first time in a while haha ​​I’m glad I won though haha

┗┗ㅋㅋㅋ It’s been a while since I remembered the old daysㅋㅋㅋ

┗Now let’s rebound!!!!!

┗But Birch’s face was swollen. What was it?

┗┗Look at his grades, this kid is not an athlete haha

-AT laughs at ‘Erot Rashko’ held in Jamsil!

┗Wow, is this your first time getting 4 wins? I knew he couldn’t do it, but he was a legend haha

┗┗But it seems like a rebound is in the air these days?

“Hey! Dude! “Keep your strength until the end!”

“What?”

“[Take your strength to the end, bastard! Should I tell you directly? Look. Like this, like this!]”

“[Ah… I know what you mean. Like this?]”

“[Yeah, dude. It’s much better. … Dude, you have to watch the ball till the end!]”

“[Ah… Sorry.]”

Anyway, this bastard is a foreigner and doesn’t have any basic skills. After all, Americans listen only when they lose. It was fortunate that Burch, who had been disobedient to the coach, became obedient after receiving a few hits.

However, judging from the fact that Williams and Burch did not press charges even after being hit several times, it seems that America still has a strong macho culture.

‘I thought it was just Mr. Rossby…’

‘Hehe, guys who exercise are the same even after 100 years.’

‘But, is it true that my swing is getting much better after just focusing on a few of the points that Mr. Rossby mentioned?’

‘Isn’t it obvious? Ted also got better after I taught him a few times.’

… And bragging about yourself. This is why Mr. Rossby shouldn’t be praised. I left Mr. Rossby, who was drunk with his own boasting, and looked around his training ground. Perhaps because we had two consecutive winning series last week, the training atmosphere seemed quite good.

‘Phew, I’m glad I played against the weak teams last week.’

Of course, the reason the training atmosphere got better was because of the victory. Kids like Junhu said that the mood got better after I messed up once, but my thoughts were a little different.

If we had lost the game after that day, the mood would have plummeted.

Honestly, I was lucky. Because the teams we faced throughout the week were not that strong. Hancheol, the opponent in the Children’s Day series, was a team that was ranked 10th even though it lost on Children’s Day, and Charlotte was a good team when it was doing well, but it was a team with a lot of ups and downs, and the main thing was that it suffered three consecutive losses in the midweek series.

‘If there had been consecutive losses, there would have been an air like, ‘The team atmosphere has been ruined because the young bastard was so mean.’

But that was in the realm of what if.

We had consecutive wins, and as a result, the team atmosphere was getting quite good.

The problem is…,

“Brother, please look at me too.”

“Under… Okay. “Come here.”

… The fact that more and more people are leaving the hitting coach behind and asking me about hitting?

That day, after Jincheol listened to me and was sent down to the second team, the other players were under the illusion that I was someone who knew a lot about batting theory. Ki-cheol Lee, the hitting coach, seemed to be happy that he had less work to do. … Fuck.

‘A bastard who gets a lot of money is like Lupine.’

For reference, Lee Ki-cheol’s salary was quite high for a coach. It was obvious, but our batting performance was pretty good during the three years Lee Ki-cheol was there…, No, it was the highest level ever, and the salary of the hitting coach who taught the highest level batting line of all time had no choice but to rise.

I even heard from Hyejin that an offer to direct came from a local area, but Hyejin said that she didn’t want to leave Seoul.

-“Sister, but wouldn’t she be able to play more if we just sent her to the countryside?”

-“Then there is no reason for me to come here. “I love having sex with you like this sometimes while pretending to bring you a packed lunch.”

-“And… Have you thought about it that far? Sister… !”

… There was also something like that.

Anyway, Lee Ki-cheol was a hitting coach who was offered a managerial offer, and it was a little annoying that he was being treated like that, and he was doing a paid job.

‘Usually coaches have to get angry for overstepping their authority at times like this, but that bastard… Under…’

Still, he’s a kid who does his job properly during the game, so I’ll have to put up with it.

Still, there was no need to roughly inform the incoming batters. It was a matter of each person’s life, and if the team became stronger, it was good for me as well.

“… Brother? How do you feel?”

“Hwicheol. How come you don’t hit the ball near the fence? “Are you sure you’re lifting weights consistently?”

“The batting speed did get a little faster, but…”

And I couldn’t just kick the player who came. I looked closely at Hwicheol’s batting form, wondering how much he had to think about it before he came to me, a fellow player. To be precise, not me, but Mr. Rossby.

‘So, what does it look like?’

‘This guy’s batting form is a problem. They say you can’t hit a home run if you hit like this. If a kid like this hits a home run, he needs to switch to an upper swing. But then your batting average will drop.’

‘… Then now would be a better time.’

“Brother?”

“… It would be better for you to just keep going like this. “If you’re lucky, you might hit one throughout your career.”

“… Yes.”

“Bastard, home runs aren’t everything. Are you celebrating 3 years since your debut? But it’s hitting around 30%.”

“… “When my brother says that, it seems like he’s making fun of me.”

“… “Work hard.”

To be honest, I felt sorry because I felt like he was making fun of me even after I said it. But what can I do? I’m born with something different.

As I sent Hwicheol away, this time I made eye contact with Seongtae. But now I had to practice too, so I grabbed the bat and quickly found an empty cage. Today’s game is at the small Munhak Stadium.

Since it was my first literary debut this season, I wanted to clean up my home run stats a bit before leaving. The number of home runs I have hit so far is 13 in 40 games. Although we were first in the league, it would have been difficult to exceed 60 at this pace, so we had to do a little washing up at a stadium like Munhak.

‘Under… I think I could hit more if the walks were reduced a little.’

The number one reason for the decrease in home runs was the fact that they were batting without Mr. Rossby, but there were other reasons as well. The reason is walks. In dangerous situations, most pitchers wouldn’t challenge me, and I had no choice but to accept it.

First, as the batting line became weaker, there were more checks, and it was obvious that if I skipped walks and was greedy for home runs out of greed, the game would get that much worse. Baseball was a battle with 27 out counts, and it was a big blow to have a precious opportunity to get on base turn into an out count.

Moreover, I don’t know if the team situation had been a little better, but the team’s ranking is in the bottom tier. Although I miss the feeling of hitting a home run, I couldn’t give up the game because of that feeling.

But today’s game is literature. Even if personal greed was shown, there was a high possibility that it would lead to the team’s victory. In a stadium like this, there was a high probability that a batted ball that would be an outfield fly would go over the fence.

‘I guess I should hit it a little more aggressively today.’

[Hello. Greetings from Munhak, where the fourth match of the season between AT Thunders and UG Overlords, and between UG Overlords and AT Thunders, is taking place. Caster…]

[This is a match between the 7th place team AT Thunders and the 8th place team UG Overlords, right? AT went up last week with a record of 4 wins and 2 losses, and UG Overlords recorded 3 wins and 3 losses? AT with 18 wins, 22 losses, and UG Overlords with 17 wins, 22 losses, and 1 draw. In order to move up to the top, you have to catch a team with similar performance, so I think it will be an interesting match today.]

[This is a matchup between Park Jun-hyung and Derry. What do you think of the starting matchup?]

[I have a feeling that Derry, who is a foreign player, is smiling a little. But the story will be different depending on how you deal with Ji Maeng-ho, right?]

[Yes. … We will inform you of the AT Thunders starting lineup. 1st hitter Jeong Hwi-cheol, 2nd hitter Baek Jeong-jin, 3rd hitter Ki Ki-joo, 4th hitter Ji Maeng-ho, 5th hitter Seong-tae Yoon, 6th hitter Kim Sang-min, 7th hitter Birch, 8th hitter Kim Hyun-seong, 9th hitter Oh Hyun-seok… …]

[AT’s lineup is consistently using Kim Sang-min at first base after Choi Jin-cheol was moved down to the second team, and Kim Sang-min was called up, right? In fact, Kim Sang-min was a right-handed slugger prospect that AT was really looking forward to, but does this mean that Kim Sang-min is now 32 years old? It’s not that I’m young. Now is the time to really show it.]

[Actually, AT fans had high expectations for Kim Sang-min as he hit 12 home runs and 15 home runs in the season before enlisting in the military, right?]

[Yes. Kim Sang-min was a slugging infielder who could play first and third base. However, when I went to the military, AT recruited Kim Soo-ho, and the very next season after being discharged, Choi Jin-cheol was recruited, and he played as a right-handed pinch hitter, but last season, he was sent down to the second team after hitting .108.1. And in the opening game, he played third base and showed a bad performance, so he was immediately sent down to the second team. Seonsoon is working really hard, and I hope he shows a good performance this season.]
