‘First Walk-Off Hit’ Reserve Koo Bon-hyuk, “I Wanted to Hit it Cool…”

“I don’t feel very good”

Koo Bon-hyuk of the professional baseball LG Twins said after giving his team an 8-7 win with his first walk-off hit since his professional debut in the NC Dinos game on the 4th.

His batting was good recently, but it was unfortunate that a missed ball, not a cool long hit, led to a lucky hit.

Koo Bon-hyuk, who was brought in as third baseman for defense in the top of the 10th inning, swung his bat at NC Kim Yoo-young’s 5th pitch two-seam fastball in the bottom of the 11th inning, his first at-bat, with runners on 2nd and 3rd base with one out. 안전놀이터

The ball floated and landed in an exquisite space between first baseman and right fielder.

It was the moment that put an end to a 4-hour, 20-minute bloody battle that saw 13 pitchers from both teams, 25 hits, and 24 left bases.

Koo Bon-hyuk, who we met after the game, said, “It was a dream scene, so I wanted to hit it cool, but I think it was a lucky hit. In the past, I would have just liked it, but now that I have confidence, I wanted to hit a good ball.”

I could feel his confidence and composure throughout the interview.

Koo Bon-hyuk said, “(If it were me in the past), I would have bunted or had a pinch hitter come out.”

When asked, ‘Is Koo Bon-hyuk different now?’ he answered quite seriously, “I think he is different.”

Koo Bon-hyuk, who was discharged from the Sangmu position last year, performed well with 7 hits in 18 at-bats (batting average 0.389) in this year’s exhibition game, and even after the start of the regular season, he had 4 hits in 12 at-bats until today.

Koo Bon-hyuk said, “When I looked at people who played well at Sangmu, I saw that they had something in common: they used their lower body.

After that, I practiced a lot and gained confidence.”

He has also relieved himself of the burden of surviving in LG Twins, which won the overall championship last year with the league’s strongest offense.
