“Hello. This is Mealnam, the man who tells you the major. There is a big match the day after tomorrow, September 11th, when the video is uploaded, right?
It is a game between the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers held at Yankee Stadium. The Dodgers are ranked first in the NL with 101 wins and 41 losses, and are a team that has won two consecutive championships until last year and is aiming for its third consecutive World Series title.
And the Yankees are the team with the most dominant record this year, recording 108 wins and 34 losses, and are overwhelmingly first in the AL, and experts say it is likely that the two teams will meet in the World Series.
Now, without further ado, let’s get into the preview of the power analysis of the two teams.
First, these are the records of the players of the home team, the Yankees.
C/Ohapi WAR: 4.0
: 119G 82R 78RBI 112H 24HR 0.259/0.349/0.473/0.822 1SB 0CS
1B/hole WAR: 2.7
: 105G 57R 68RBI 115H 23HR 0.274/0.340/0.489/0.829 1SB 0CS
2B/Ji Maeng-ho WAR: 17.1
: 135G 225R 164RBI 206H 68HR 0.403/0.534/0.963/1.497 99SB 2CS
3B/Vientos WAR: 3.1
: 131G 89R 78RBI 140H 26HR 0.270/0.340/0.461/0.801 4SB 1CS
SS/Volpi WAR: 4.6
: 133G 101R 75RBI 127H 22HR 0.254/0.355/0.444/0.799 23SB 4CS
LF/Jersey WAR: 6.7
: 128G 126R 164RBI 151H 53HR 0.282/0.379/0.644/1.023 8SB 1CS
CF/Verdugo WAR: 1.9
: 107G 63R 50RBI 109H 9HR 0.285/0.336/0.403/0.739 1SB 1CS
RF/Soto WAR: 7.3
: 129G 123R 137RBI 139H 40HR 0.283/0.419/0.608/1.027 4SB 2CS
DH/Stanton WAR: 5.9
: 130G 90R 141RBI 145H 44HR 0.290/0.368/0.600/0.968 0SB 0CS
OF/Kelnick WAR: 0.9
: 114G 73R 54RBI 91H 17HR 0.233/0.311/0.438/0.749 1SB 1CS
The characteristic of the Yankees’ batting lineup is that most of the players, including the 40-home run quartet of Ji Maeng-ho, Judge, Soto, and Stanton, boast a powerful hit that can exceed 20 home runs.
What is unique is that Verdugo and Kelnick take turns playing in the game and take turns filling in for Judge, Soto, and Stanton when they are under physical strain. As can be seen from the fact that the two players have appeared in 100 games together, although they have been replaced a lot due to the large number of substitutions, it appears that Manager Mattingly is paying attention to the physical distribution of the outfielders.
And, looking at the records of the three starting pitchers in the three-game series, starting with Rodon, Buehler, and Singer,
SP/Rodon WAR: 2.3
: 29G 12W 6L 4.87ERA 159.0IP 161K
SP/Buehler WAR: 2.7
: 29G 14W 4L 4.19ERA 171.2IP 140K
SP/Singer WAR: 1.6
: 23G 12W 6L 4.68ERA 132.2IP 108K
… The performance is worse than that of Cole and Gilbert, who combined for 38 wins…
Now, let’s take a look at the Dodgers’ players.
C/Smith WAR: 5.9
: 114G 81R 100RBI 125H 36HR 0.291/0.368/0.619/0.987 2SB 0CS
1B/Tatis WAR: 4.3
: 136G 88R 101RBI 135H 31HR 0.259/0.343/0.511/0.854 30SB 9CS
2B/Sean WAR: 5.6
: 141G 120R 87RBI 176H 31HR 0.297/0.367/0.540/0.907 43SB 1CS
3B/Candelario WAR: 1.8

SS/Padlo WAR: 1.8
: 136G 65R 72RBI 126H 17HR 0.248/0.316/0.385/0.701 8SB 4CS
LF/Palenski WAR: 0.6
: 64G 46R 36RBI 60H 8HR 0.227/0.312/0.379/0.691 6SB 2CS
CF/Joo Seung-cheol WAR: 4.2

RF/Bets WAR: 2.2
: 128G 97R 78RBI 122H 19HR 0.249/0.336/0.439/0.775 6SB 1CS
DH/Ohtani WAR: 13.1
: 142G 121R 152RBI 182H 53HR 0.319/0.405/0.686/1.091 19SB 2CS
SP/Yamamoto WAR: 3.6
: 28G 12W 5L 3.83ERA 164.2IP 165K
SP/Miller WAR: 2.8
: 28G 13W 6L 4.25ERA 161.0IP 144K
SP/Ohtani WAR: 13.1
: 29G 17W 3L 2.34ERA 176.2IP 224K
First, if we look at the Dodgers’ batting lineup, players like Smith, Tatis, Sean, and Joo Seung-cheol are working hard. In particular, Tatis is said to have regained his form when he was competing for the home run title by recording 15 home runs and an OPS of 0.926 in 50 games after being transferred via trade, and although Smith suffered an injury for about 3 weeks at the beginning of the season, he made the major league with Lutchman High School. He is showing the best catcher form in the league.
However, it feels like Palenski is unable to fill the void left by Martilla, who was traded for Tatis. In addition, Betz’s slump is also severe.
However, even for the Dodgers, Ohtani is swinging the bat with the momentum to renew his career high…
And the Dodgers have the upper hand in the starting matchup featuring Yamamoto, Miller, and Ohtani.
Perhaps the outcome of the game will depend on how well the Dodgers’ pitchers can suppress the Yankees’ hard-hitting line.
Currently, there are two players in the major league who are having the best seasons of all time: Ji Maeng-ho and Ohtani, right?
Ji Maeng-ho is having the best season ever since the National Baseball Players Association was founded in 1857 based solely on his batting performance, and Ohtani is having a season in which he looks likely to aim for the MVP as a hitter and the Cy Young Award as a pitcher.
As a baseball fan, I am looking forward to seeing what the two players will show in this matchup.”
┗Wow… It’s a battle between the world’s strongest players, really haha
┗Wow ㅅㅂ I have to watch this in full haha
┗Ji Maeng-ho VS Joo Seung-cheol, Ohtani. I’m sick of rivalry haha
┗┗Ohtani says so, but why Joo Seung-cheol?
┗┗Joo Seung-cheol also had a rivalry with Maeng Ho-shin during his Korean days haha
┗┗I was sick of seeing the two of us together in Kosi haha
┗But, the Dodgers have an advantage in terms of pitching, so it looks like the Dodgers will win?
┗You can lose the other two games, so let’s win on the day Otani comes out, fierce tiger
┗Ah, I miss seeing the guys soaking in Jia and watching the previews… Jianimyuㅠㅠㅠ
┗┗ㄹㅇ I was tired of Jia’s voice haha. This guy is hilarious.
┗┗Jibao, come backㅠㅠㅠㅠ
┗It’s a shame that Glasnow and Cooper didn’t appear. It would have been really fun if the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd starters had been together haha
┗┗ㄹㅇ Cole and Gilbert should have come out and perished as well ㄲㅂ
┗ㅋㅋ If Yamamoto and Otani get robbed, you bastards will be excited to see who will be the best pitcher in Japan! Haha,
┗┗ㄱㅊ
┗┗ㄱㅊ!

“… Congratulations.”
What kind of look is this?
A day off before the game against the Dodgers.
I saw Seungcheol for the first time in a long time. His older brother was looking at me with eyes that are difficult to explain in words. Well, it wasn’t a look I couldn’t understand. Next to me was Zia, who announced her pregnancy news on a live broadcast, although she was about 3 months old and her stomach wasn’t noticeable yet.
“Under… But I knew they were dating, but seeing her pregnant like this feels weird. Is it okay to leave Jia in the hands of a child like you? .”
Of course, that look didn’t last long. Seungcheol wasn’t in a position to say anything about our relationship, which even our parents knew about.
“What’s wrong with me? It’s better than not being able to even say we’re dating because I’m scared of my fans like my brother.”
Still, there was a slightly awkward atmosphere, so I turned my arrow toward Seungcheol. It would have been nice if Leah was here, but it was a shame that Leah’s group wasn’t there because she was on a world tour.
“Yumma, even if Younghee wasn’t an idol, I would have announced it right away.”
“Oppa, do you know that Younghee said she was jealous of me?”
Well, they’ve been dating for a few years now, but it’s time to think about getting married.
“… Did you do that? Well, Younghee’s contract period ends this year as well. No, but I’ll take care of that. Jia, but are you really going to be okay? I’ve almost quit broadcasting, and I’m still young…”
“… What do you mean, brother?”
Jia’s expression changes to a slightly hurt expression at Seungcheol’s words.
“What does it mean? I’m just asking if you’re really okay. You also have staff attached to you. “You liked broadcasting.”
Seungcheol quickly makes up an excuse, perhaps because his brother also knew that his words could be misunderstood.
“I’m still filming things like pregnancy vlogs. It’s because I’m measuring the timing to upload it. And isn’t it better to have a child with someone you love than that?”
Well, Jia also knew that Seungcheol wasn’t the type of person to say things like that, so the atmosphere relaxed again.
“Well, if you like it. But it’s still strange to hear those words coming out of your mouth. Anyway, take care of yourself.”
“I’m okay because my sisters helped me a lot.”
“… That’s a good thing. Well, if you and Maengho are together, we will do well at baseball. Hey, are you going to order me to play baseball?”
“Baseball? Well, if the child wants it, let him do it. But I still don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl.”
“… No. Just don’t let your kid play baseball. Because I feel sorry for the child.”
“Huh? Why?”
“Just. “If the father is too good at baseball, the son gets tired.”
“Oh, is that an experience?”
“…”
Was it a real experience? Looking at the expression, it seemed like it was a real experience.
‘I’m sure if you play baseball, there will be problems like that. But, I think Hojin will play baseball… Should I stop it?’
And Seungcheol’s words remind him of Hojin, who is only 5 years old, but is already playing catch and swinging the bat. When I was in New York, I sometimes played catch with Hojin. Not because he was my son, but because he was definitely talented in sports, Hyejin and I planned to raise Hojin to be a baseball player.
But I think Seungcheol was having a hard time, even with director Joo Hyung-jin, so I felt like I had to stop him.
‘Isn’t it? Ho-jin thinks his dad is Lee Ki-cheol, so it doesn’t really matter?’
Well, it’s your life anyway, so you have to make your own choice.
‘But I have to think more about my other children. Because we will have many more children in the future.’
Perhaps my children will try to surpass me just as I tried to surpass Mr. Rossby. And it was clear that there would be a lot of frustration. I am achieving these grades with Mr. Rossby’s help, but it was clear that my children would not be able to do the same.
“… Anyway, it was nice to meet you after a long time. Let’s do our best tomorrow. Hey, and don’t mess with my kids just because you’re annoyed.”
“What? Are you planning on throwing a bean ball?”
“Are you sure, you asshole?”
Seungcheol and his older brother, who had given us such short-lived troubles, moved to the expedition accommodation, and we got into the car to go home. And as he started the car, Jia started stroking my thigh.
“Brother…”
“Huh?”
“Soyoung, since when did you start doing this?”
“Uh… “Okay.”
“Aren’t I in a period of stability now?”
“I think so? Hmm… I like it, but…”
“… I’ve been patient for a while. Furthermore, I haven’t been able to do it for almost 2 months already…”
Although he didn’t show it while eating, it seemed like Seungcheol’s words were slightly hurtful. Seeing you yearning for my love like this.
Well, it wasn’t bad. If you think about when Hyejin and Soyoung were pregnant, it seems like they had sex around this time, and in order for Jia to give birth to her child easily, it was necessary to expand from now on.
The effectiveness of the expansion construction was proven by Hyejin and Soyoung. It wasn’t a bad thing to start preparing now.
“Ji-Jia, but I’m driving…” .”
“Hey, I’m just kidding. “This much.”
So she drove, enduring Jia’s manipulation of her hands, until she entered the house. As soon as she entered the house, she asked the other women for their understanding, and then gave her Jia plenty of love throughout the night.
… For reference, Jia’s breasts, which were going back and forth from A to B, had swelled to her C cup because of the breast milk, and her breast milk was quite sweet.
The next day, she was even remembered at the training ground.
‘I’ve swelled to about a C cup, and it tastes a bit like red now. She was a little disappointed because she had been going back and forth between A and B. Ah, when I get home, I’ll have to wash it with Soyoung at the same time.’
