KIA Tigers' star Kim Do-young (21) will enter the national team mode again. Players from the Kia and Samsung Lions who played the Korean Series joined the national team on Wednesday. There is no training for the national team on Thursday. He will naturally take another day off and prepare to play in an exhibition match against Cuba on Nov. 1-2.안전놀이터
Kim will join the senior team for the second time since the Asian Professional Baseball Championship in November 2023. However, the Asian Professional Baseball Championship is an under-23 tournament. This is the first time that the best-member senior team will participate in the championship.
Kim Do-young's status has changed again from a year ago. He became the top hitter in the KBO League this season with 38-40. Now, his upgraded competitiveness is objectively evaluated in the international arena. Since there are five matches in the group league alone, there are not a few samples.
First of all, Kim should shake off the disappointment of the Asian Baseball Championship a year ago. On Nov. 19 last year, Kim hit an infield grounder and headfirst slide to the first base in the extended bases-loaded opportunity against Japan, and ruptured her scapular fracture and medial ligament in her left thumb. She played in the opening game of this season like a miracle, but it was a pretty serious injury.
Kim Do-young vowed not to headfirst slide due to this injury. He also felt that he should play in a more calm and calm manner, be it his team or the national team. Since he finished his first international competition with regret, it is time to let go of that regret.
"I want to have good energy (for the time being) to win the national team right after winning the Korean Series on Sunday. If I make it to the final entry, I want to play as much as I can, which I couldn't play at an international competition last year. I will come back with a successful ending," Kim said.
Another is that few major leaguers will appear in the Premier 12, but chances are high that Major League scouts will visit the site. In a way, it is a showcase for Kim. Some said that they fell in love with Kim while checking out Kim Hye-sung (Kium Heroes) this year. Although it is still a long time away, Kim Do-young is qualified to challenge for the Major League.
The pitchers Kim Do-young will face in the Premier 12 may have been close to the level of the Major League, or even if they are not close to the level of the KBO League. You will play after hearing information about the pitcher, but if you can't stick together and produce good results against an unknown opponent, it will mean a lot in itself. Another stage has come for Kim Do-young, who has been running through 2024 without a break.
