Chapter 766 – Episode 753. 0.740 VS 0.780
-Ji Maeng-ho! Second cycling hit of the season!
… In the game against the Tampa Bay Rays, Ji Maeng-ho recorded his second cycling hit of the season…
┗You rested yesterday and showed it well haha
┗I thought he was injured because Ji Maeng-ho was resting. Wasn’t this guy not going to rest unless he was disciplined?
┗┗ㄴㄴ It’s not that you don’t rest unless you discipline, it’s that you discipline yourself when you want to rest
┗┗ㅇㅅㅁㅎㅅ This must also be the arrangement of the fierce god of protection.
┗How do you make cycling easier in the major leagues? LOL
┗┗I guess it didn’t work because everything was a home run in Korea haha
┗┗ㄹㅇㅋㅋ Ji Maeng-ho is out of fashion. If he were in Korea, he would have hit 4 home runsㅋㅋㅋ
-Derek Hall, grand slam home run! Lead the Yankees to victory.
… On this day, Gerrit Cole, the Yankees’ starting pitcher, was taken out early in the game, giving up 3 runs, but the Yankees, who tied the game with Ji Maeng-ho’s consecutive home runs, took the win with Derek Hall’s bases loaded home run in the top of the 8th inning…
… With this win, the Yankees swept the series in Tampa Bay and widened their lead over the Tampa Bay Rays to 6.5 games. … The Yankees are now moving to Atlanta and facing the Atlanta Braves in a three-game series…
… Meanwhile, with this day’s game, Ji Maeng-ho joined the 30-30 club among major league hitters for the first time this season…
┗ㄷㄷI think it’s faster than in Korea?
┗┗In the majors, it seems like you’re faster since you’re competing?
┗┗In Korea, we avoided everything except the first season
┗It’s a shame to promote the national prestige of a fierce defender haha
┗ Wow, it dropped to .401, but yesterday I hit 4 hits in 4 at-bats and raised it to .405 again. If I keep doing this, I think I’ll hit .500.
┗┗I might fall, but it’s a tough job
┗Fierce Protector 3030 is a bit boring haha
┗┗The 2nd place home run hitter is 22, but it’s a bit embarrassing haha
┗┗Second place in stolen bases is also 29ㄷㄷ Baseball is just a beast haha

-A head-to-head match between the top two leagues. Who will win the match?
… The New York Yankees, first in the American League with 37 wins, and the Atlanta Braves, first in the National League with 39 wins, will face off on the last day of May. The two teams are uniquely over 70% winning percentage this season, and this matchup between the two teams is the last matchup of the regular season…
-So, who do you think will win Walsh this season?
Currently, the team with a winning percentage of over 70% is struggling with Aldong and Neuldong. Who do you think will win?
┗ㅋjjj How are you going to stop the Yankees, who have a strong 5th starter and Miller as the closer?
┗The batting lineup is lacking in strength, but the pitcher is excellent. Avila is also good in the Spencer-Alkan Cy Young duo.
┗┗Hasn’t Strider failed this season? I heard it was 4 points
┗┗Still, it’s 6 wins and 0 losses haha
┗┗Cole has 7 wins at 1 point?
┗┗Alkane is 9th power?
┗┗ㅋㅋ Those two-seung-ta-ta-ta-chungs are so damned haha
┗Anyway, Gukjeers will win.
┗┗This season will be difficult because Betts and Freeman are competing haha
┗Just take a look at it this time

-[ZiaTube] Yankees vs. Braves preview! Which team will take first place in the Major League?!
3589 people are watching. (LIVE)
“Hello everyone! This is Atlanta! It’s a heated matchup between the New York Yankees and Atlanta Braves, two teams that are .700 in the major league, right? I decided to take advantage of the excitement and visit Truist Park tomorrow! Clap! Clap clap clap!”
┗These days, vlogs are as big as the major leaguesㅠㅠ
┗ㅋㅋMy boyfriend is in the U.S., So he should play in the major league.ㅋㅋ
┗Aren’t you coming to Korea?
┗(This is a deleted message.)
“Why don’t you come to Korea? My brother is also in the US, and the number of views is high here. Hehe, can you understand?”
┗ㅋㅋㅋ Since I tell you about Ji Maeng-ho, the number of views is good haha
┗The hotel is nice haha
“Jia, what are you doing? Man…”
“Oh, sister! Now live!”
┗? Who is it?
┗Kozada Koza haha
┗Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who?
┗I think I was about to say something but got cut off?
“Oh, I came to see it with an older sister I know. But, this sister doesn’t like her face being sold, so she says wait a minute. That’s it.
“Then shall we get started in earnest?”
┗The preview is so fast today haha
┗Looks like you’re busy haha
┗I know everything, so take it easy haha
“Hmm… First, let’s take a look at the starting matchups for this three-game series. For the Yankees, Logan Gilbert, the second starter in the rotation, is scheduled to be the first starter of the three-game series, but after that, Carlos Rodon and Walker Buehler…
Gilbert/ 10G 6W 2L 2.85ERA 66.1IP 65K
(G=Game, W=Win, L=Loss, ERA=ERA, IP=Innings, K=Strikeouts)
Rodon/ 10G 2W 2L 4.88ERA 55.1 IP 54K
Buehler/ 10G 5W 1L 3.86ERA 63.0 IP 50K
…
Now let’s take a look at Atlanta’s starting lineup. Atlanta’s rotation includes Alcantara, Fried, and Aviga…
Alcantara/ 11G 9W 1L 2.28ERA 75.0IP 97K
Freed/ 11G 5W 3L 5.61ERA 61.0IP 48K
Avila/ 6G 3W 0L 2.60ERA 34.2IP 29K
The players to watch out for here are Alcantara and Avila. Alcantara moved to Atlanta this season and is performing well to the status of a Cy Young winner. He ranked 5th in the entire major league in ERA, 1st in most wins and strikeouts, and 2nd in innings, making him a Cy Young winner this season as well. Contender-level performance…, Avila showed his potential as a starting pitcher by winning 10 games last year, but this season he recorded an ERA of around 2 points…”
┗Why are we paying attention? It’s just major league teams. Haha,
“Of course, since Ji Maeng-ho, who is Korean, is playing for the Yankees, we should also support the Yankees. Please, if you are Korean, let’s support the Yankees!”
┗Leave it alone, my boyfriend is a Yankees player haha
┗ㅋSo how many girlfriends is this bitch?
“Wait a minute, the strange kids are here again. Where do strange people come when you do previews like this? Under… Hmm, hmm. I’ll go again. Now, let’s compare each hitter’s starting position.
First, let’s compare catchers. From Ohapee of the Yankees and Rodriguez of Atlanta…
(G=game, R=run, RBI=RBI, H=hit, HR=home run, batting average/on-base percentage/slugging percentage/OPS, SB=stealing base, CS=failure to steal base)
C/Ohapi
: 46G 31R 36RBI 36H 9HR 0.228/0.326/0.437/0.763
C/Rodriguez
: 31G 22R 23RBI 44H 4HR 0.370/0.424/0.588/1.012
… Rodriguez currently has the second-highest WAR after Lutchman, and when converted to WAR per game, Rodriguez currently has the highest…
Next are first basemen Hall and Olson.
1B/Hall
: 44G 22R 32RBI 47H 9HR 0.276/0.337/0.476/0.813
1B/Olson
: 47G 36R 42RBI 50H 11HR 0.270/0.374/0.508/0.882
… Although Olsen is disappointing compared to his prime, he still looks powerful… The second basemen are Ji Maeng-ho and Alvis, who are currently showing a destructive performance in the major league. …
2B/Ji Maeng-ho
: 44G 78R 61RBI 76H 30HR 0.450/0.551/1.160/1.711 36SB
2B/Alvis
: 48G 36R 44RBI 60H 9HR 0.326/0.371/0.587/0.958
… Alvis is also doing really well, but Ji Maeng-ho seems to be a different unit on his own. And… Now, let’s look at third basemen Vientos and Riley…
3B/Vientos
: 49G 29R 27RBI 47H 7HR 0.246/0.329/0.398/0.727
3B/Riley
: 46G 40R 50RBI 60H 17HR 0.317/0.392/0.651/1.043
… While Vientos is underperforming, Riley, who is at the center of Atlanta’s batting lineup, is showing career-high performance this season… … Shortstops Volpi and Waddell…
SS/Volpi
: 49G 39R 27RBI 51H 8HR 0.283/0.381/0.456/0.837 14SB
SS/Wardell
: 46G 42R 17RBI 57H 2HR 0.298/0.404/0.393/0.797 15SB
… Although Wardell’s on-base percentage is high, in various detailed statistics other than on-base percentage, Yankees’ shortstop Volpi… … Now let’s go to the outfield! In the Yankees, a total of four outfielders take turns playing in the game…
OF/Jersey
: 48G 43R 56RBI 55H 22HR 0.286/0.387/0.693/1.080
OF/Soto
: 47G 44R 48RBI 51H 16HR 0.300/0.457/0.659/1.116
OF/Kelnick
: 47G 31R 22RBI 44H 7HR 0.253/0.332/0.443/0.775
OF/Verdugo
: 35G 19R 19RBI 33H 4HR 0.287/0.295/0.452/0.747
… Do you know why Verdugo’s cheeks are swollen these days? Umm… An acquaintance of mine said that Verdugo has a routine where he slaps himself before a game? Why? I don’t know about that either…
Well, coming back to the main topic, Atlanta has three outfielders…
OF/word
: 48G 36R 26RBI 52H 5HR 0.271/0.363/0.411/0.774
OF/Harris
: 47G 38R 30RBI 51H 8HR 0.273/0.335/0.465/0.800
OF/Acuña Jr.
: 46G 47R 41RBI 54H 6HR 0.297/0.408/0.527/0.935 27SB
… Overall, the quality of the outfield seems to be better for the Yankees, and if it weren’t for Ohtani, Acuña is a player who could aim for NL MVP at any time… Then, lastly, the designated hitters Stanton and Soler…
DH/Stanton
: 39G 26R 28RBI 31H 12HR 0.240/0.342/0.550/0.892
DH/Solere
: 50G 28R 27RBI 45H 8HR 0.232/0.284/0.407/0.691
… The designated hitter for both teams is occupied by two veterans, and with Soler, who moved to Atlanta after signing a $3.4 million contract this season, performing poorly, the Yankees’ Stanton will probably be the designated hitter…
Overall, Atlanta is ahead in catchers, Atlanta is ahead in infielders (excluding Ji Maeng-ho), and the Yankees are ahead in outfielders and designated hitters…
So the bottom line is, the guy with good conditioning wins!”
*
“Alcantara throws a four-seam and sinker at 97-8 mph and a high-speed changeup at 91-2 mph…”
‘This kid isn’t even old. I know he’s over 30, but he’s really fast at hitting the ball.’
Alcantara’s appearance on the screen was still the same as it was at the Olympics or WBC.
Against him, he had hit a home run in the WBC and a double in the Olympics, but the home run was an uncomfortable home run with a distance that did not exceed depending on the stadium, and the double hit in the Olympics was also a hit that would have been caught if it had not been for the left fielder’s defensive mistake. .
If fans knew this, they would be a little surprised, but actually, compared to my intelligent image, I didn’t have a very good memory.
Nevertheless, the Alcantara I met in the international competition remained strongly in my memory, and the reason I remember the match against Alcantara was because the memory of that time remained so strong that it was difficult to forget.
What can I say? Does it feel like you can’t make a good batted ball unless you hit it perfectly?
Moreover, each ball he threw had so much movement that even if you knew the pitch in advance, it was difficult to predict its trajectory, and the ball was fast enough to hit 100 mph. Even his changeup was fast enough to hit a velocity in the mid-140s, making him almost my natural enemy.
If grilling is a style that involves pressing with force, Alcantara is a type that competes with dirty movements, so for me, Alcantara was more difficult.
Since he was in good condition enough to record a cycling hit or multiple home runs after taking a day off, he wanted to avoid a match with Alcantara as much as possible, but it was a little disappointing to meet Alcantara right away.
To deal with Alcantara, he would have had to advance his timing a little more, and it would have been clear that his striking ability would have been lost.
However, Atlanta is a team that is likely to make the World Series finals. Looking at the momentum these days, the momentum was better than the Dodgers, so it was important to watch what kind of pitches Alcantara was throwing this season.
‘Mr. Rossby, let’s do some betting on the WBC version before the game.’
‘Tsk, annoying.’
To be honest, I was wondering if there was any effect in mental training because the trajectory was so messy, but the speed of the guy was close to 100 mph, and it was better to be prepared if you were going to hit a ball like that, so I took the time to talk to Mr. Rossby. I started training.
So I used the time left before the game to prepare for the match with Alcantara,
“Play ball!”
… The third match with Alcantara has begun.
