4.
January.
It is the toughest month for baseball fans.
In December, the stories of thick FA contracts and trade stories of giants, including Winter meetings, become a warm hearth, but by January, baseball fans will no longer be able to be found.
Baseball fans only wait.
May the spring training season come to an end to that cold winter!
[Opening Spring Training!]
[The 2018 Major League has begun!]
And on February 1st, spring training began.
5.
Spring training.
It is a combination of battery training and demonstration matches that occur before the start of the season.
Players relaxing during January start in February with warm baseball fields in Arizona or Florida, and then begin the demonstration in March after a month of training and practice.
For New York Mets, the First Date Field, located in Port St. Lucy, Florida, was the stage for spring training.
Lee Jin-yong showed up there after finishing several events in Korea on February 2.
“Ow!”
“Wow!"
At the same time, people were surprised by the appearance of Lee Jin-yong, including the entrance to the stadium, and the journalists and baseball fans who were waiting nearby.
Of course, it was not a surprise to Lee Jin-yong.
“Who the hell is that monster? ”
“Oh, my God, where did that monster come from? ”
“A ridiculous monster has appeared in the Major League. Are you a newcomer to Mets?”
Now I was surprised at Lee Young-ye behind Lee Jin-yeon who became an agent and translator.
Even one of the young baseball fans approached Lee Young-yee with a baseball and pen in his hand.
“Sign here, please. ”
I don't know who Lee Young-ye is, but he looks like a huge major league athlete to a young fan.
No one questioned that.
Of course, no one was interested in Jin Yong.
Puhahaha!
It was the reason that Kim Jinho's bombs exploded, and it was the reason Lee Jin-yong made a fat face.
Jin-yong, don't look so fat. I can't see it because it's small. What do you do? If you twist it, you'll be taller, right? Where's Jin-yeon? Don't you see? You were down there! I couldn't see you because it was too small! Sorry!
Jin Yong Lee pouted on Kim Jinho's lips.
In the meantime, Lee Young-yee told the children who asked her to sign that she was not a player, that she was an agent of the binary fighter in front of them.
Then a young baseball fan looked at Lee Jin-yong, looked around at Lee Jin-yong and stepped behind her.
How dare you! ’
Such a young fan Lee Jin-yong just let go.
“Hey, there! ”
Chainsaw Man, even the passing fan grabbed hold of it and signed it somehow, and Mah took the baseball that was in his hand.
I didn't have to take the pen.
Lee Jin-yong immediately took out a pen from my pocket and immediately signed it.
“What's your name? ”
Moreover, the fan service for Jin did not stop there.
“Oh, Alex. ”
“Yeah? That's a good name. My name is Lee Jin-yong, Lee Jin-yong. Starting this season, I'm running for Mets. Where are your fans? ”
Nonetheless, Lee Jin-yong began a conversation with her fans with some basic English language conversations without the help of an interpreter.
“Mets!"
“Live in New York? ”
“Yes!”
“Then I'll take off my uniform if you show me this sign ball later in the competition. What do you think?”
“Really?"
“Well, I get a free uniform. ”
The basic 10-minute binary torque has begun.
Seeing that, Kim Jin-ho put out his tongue.
A lifelong English speaker who studied English to catch fans and torture them, is that why he talks so much like you?
Lee Jin-yong, who had been talking with a young baseball fan for almost 10 minutes while using such lacking English words and even gestures, now took out other story materials to see if he had dropped his story material.
“By the way, do you know a player named Jinho Kim? ”
“I know! Master of the Major League! ”
Kim Jin-ho.
Phew.
Kim Jin-ho smiled at the appearance of her name.
“Yeah? But you know what? In fact, Kim Jin-ho had a head injury when she was a child and had a bad head? ”
“Really?"
“Kim Jinho's number is actually the number of Kim Jinho's IQ. ”
Hey, man! What the hell are you doing?
In fact, Kim Jin-ho burst out of laughter after seeing Jin Yong Lee until now.
My back number is IQ! How is that even possible? You know how many times I've had my back number!
In front of his anger, Lee Jin-yong continued to talk without shaking.
“Are you sure?”
“Of course, I heard it from Kim Jin-ho. ”
You're not selling drugs, you idiot! Kid! No, he's lying!
“So the next time you see your friends, be sure to tell them this story. A story about the player Kim Jin-ho. ”
“Yes.”
“If you work hard on this, I'll listen to what you want later. ”
“Yes!”
“Alex!"
It was the boy's father, Alex, who stopped those two conversations.
“It's a cinderguard signature ball! ”
Cinderella!
In that name, the eyes of a child named Alex swooped back and hurriedly approached his father without even saying hello to Jin Yong.
In that appearance, Lee Jin-yong was lost.
“Ah, the price of my name is still lower than Cinderella's. ”
For Mets fans, Noah Cinderella Guard, compared to Mets' sacred 100-mile ball, Jin Yong is just a chatty neighborhood brother.
What does it matter now? What the hell are you doing?
Kim Jin-ho expressed anger to Lee Jin-yeon, and Lee Jin-yong indifferently ignored the anger and told Lee Young-ye.
“What is the next schedule? ”
“After you pack your bags in the clubhouse, we'll talk to your hit instructor, Tom Gordon, about this season's hit practice. ”
Hit.
In that word, Lee Jin-yong changed her eyes.
‘Now you're in the real Major League. ’
6.
Major leagues are divided into national and American leagues, with the most reliable foundation separating the two leagues being the nominee system.
The National League has no nominee system. Therefore, while the pitcher is on the mount, he should stand on a thrust.
Lee Jin-yong, who was naturally a uniform for New York Mets in the National League, also now had to practice hitting with a bat.
However, Lee Jin-yong has never practiced with bats since signing with Mets.
“It's been a really long time, and I don't know if it's going to work. ”
Damn well better. All you have to do is learn how not to get hurt. Don't be a dick. Just teach me. Strange habits really get me in trouble from then on. A blow is a fight against habit.
It was because Ji Jin-yong who had never held a bat before was more likely to have a strange habit if he had been beaten with my nibbles.
That's why the Mets Division also told Lee Jin-yong not to hit until spring training.
At the same time, the Mets Group dedicated a hit instructor named Tom Gordon to Lee Jin-yong.
“Oh! That's huge! ”
Lee Jin-yong's first coaching in the Major League was a blow exercise with that Tom Gordon.
In the first place he met Tom Gordon, Tom Gordon immediately commended his admiration.
“Looks better on a physical basis than on a trauma! ”
I was amazed at Lee Young-ye.
In amazement, Kim Jin-ho's mouth cracked, and Lee Jin-yong's mouth popped open.
Of course, Coach Tom Gordon immediately reached out his palm to Lee Jin-yong.
“Of course, not everything you see is on this floor. ”
Lee Jin-yong grabbed his hand.
“Tom Gordon. ”
“This is for Jin Jin.”
“Now I have your strike map. Have you warmed up?”
“Yes, the preparation is perfect. ”
“Your English preparation seems to be perfect. But if you hear me wrong, I will speak to you through an interpreter. ”
Lee Yeong-ye nods, and Lee Jin-yong nods.
I studied English hard enough, and I was somewhat fluent in basic conversations, but that's the story of a private conversation. She still lacked English proficiency for Jin Yong.
Meanwhile, Mets spent 100 million dollars to recruit binary dragons.
The problem with Lee Jin-yong's misunderstanding of the coach was the same as the problem with the $100 million machine.
That's why South American and Oriental athletes who are quite proficient in English must bring an interpreter to the public dialogue.
“Let's start with how to play the bat rat. ”
Lee Young-ye immediately put on his betting gloves and grabbed the bat tightly in his hand.
How many years has it been? ’
At that moment, the heart of Jin Jin began to pound.
I haven't caught a bat since I gave up baseball.
But now it's time to become a batsman and stand on a platform.
Even knowing that, I held on to the desire to hold the bat.
I endured it on purpose to feel a deeper thirst.
If the heart of Jin Yong had remained still at the moment of relief from such thirst, nothing would have come this far.
So Jin Yong could hear his heart beating.
I could also hear the Baseball Manager's notifications.
[The typer stat will be activated.]
"Huh?
Yeah? Yeah.
Along with the notification, a window appeared in front of Lee Jin-yong's eyes.
[Jinyong Lee (typewriter)]
Physical: 25
Balance: 56
Preliminary Eye: 67
Owned Skill: None
Lee Young-yee tilted her head in the surprised look of Lee Jin-yong.
“Is there a problem? ”
Instead of answering, Lee Jin-yong shook his head in surprise.
Kim Jinho, on the other hand, said with a look on his face that he could not see.
This game of junk again?
7.
My first day with Tom Gordon was nothing special.
Starting with how to hold a bat, I learned only the most basic things, such as theoretical lectures on hitting.
That was it.
There was no need to grab the bat and swing it.
“Whatever it takes, the basics need to matter. Just doing it instinctively and having a theoretical basis doesn't make a big difference right now, but it does make a big difference in five or 10 years. ”
Step-by-step, it was important to clarify the basics.
“Most of all, what the club wants from you is not a massive blow. ”
Moreover, what the Mets Group wanted for Lee Jin-yong was not a chance to hit 3 and 30 home runs on the battlefield, but a healthy digestion of the season without as much injury as possible on the battlefield.
There was no reason for Lee Jin-yong to be trained to hit him on the tarmac right away.
Jin Yong did not complain about that.
I had no time to complain.
“Wow, wow! ”
The window in front of me did not dare to let Lee Jin-yong think differently.
Kim Jinho was the same.
This damn trash game.
Perhaps, I had a mind.
However, there is also a very different law.
You can't be serious.
Furthermore, at this moment, Kim Jinho began to feel an unknown anxiety.
Such anxiety about Jin Ho Kim was overwhelmed by Jin Yong Lee.
“First Triangle, 1st Bolnet, 1st Anta, 1st Home Run, 1st Point, 1st 2 Ruta, 1st 3 Ruta, 1st Duro, 1st 2 Home Runs, 1st 3 Home Runs, 1st Cycling Hit, 1st Annual Stone Home Runs, 1st Annual Stone Appearance · · · · · · ·. ”
Hey, shut up!
“What's wrong with you? I'm just counting what I can do with a batsman. ”
Shut up! Tell me something else!
Jin Yong Lee willingly changed the subject in Kim Jin-ho's words.
“What do these numbers mean? ”
The batter's ability, of course, was different from the pitcher's.
In the case of pitchers, there was physical, balance and foresight in the case of battlers, if there was restraint and swelling.
It was not difficult to assess what each meant.
“Physical is literally a physical ability. ”
Physical means physical ability, such as strength, muscle endurance, and fitness required to strike. By car, it is just a body ( ).
“Balance will mean the ability to deal with physical. ”
Balance is the ability of a driver to move such a car. Even if you have the same power to lift 100 kilograms, some of you can't hold 100 kilograms, some of you can hold 110 kilograms.
“It's prelude. It's prelude. ”
The protagonist will definitely be able to see the ball.
That was quite an analogy.
“The problem is that this number means · · · · · · · ·. ”
However, we did not know exactly what the numbers were for each of those abilities.
In the case of maximum confinement, it was not difficult to assess the meaning of the numbers, as 130 kilometers can be measured as much as you want.
However, the batter's abilities were different.
Physical 25 means that it's a certain amount, and it doesn't even come to a certain degree to become a professional level.
“Is 100 the major league standard? ”
Damn, I'd say the major leagues are about 500. Mike Traut would probably have a physical of 900. Lee Yeong-yeo will probably be around 800. Of course!
Lee Jin-yong said with a smile as if she was writing a swarm of Kim Jin-ho.
“Well, if that's the opinion of Kim Jinho, who was the ruler of the Major League. Of course, Kim Jin-ho can't be too good at looking at numbers. ”
Ugh!
That said, Kim Jin-ho tightly shut up.
Kim Jin-ho's gaze was silent, giving me a look of worry.
I worry about the fact that if I don't bend the argument, I won't be able to see the player.
· · · · · · If you were 25, the standard microphone traffic would be 91.
“Not 100? ”
Major league averages 70. Major league at 70, major league at 80, league at 90.
“How about 100? ”
It's like Barry Bones on drugs.
At that, Lee Jin-yong's eyes began to glow.
Kim Jinho sighed for a long time in his radiant eyes.
Now I'm gonna hear the sound of howling even in the masonry, the real damn game of trash! All right, let's do it!
“Yes! I'll do it all! ”
Lee Jin-yong, his amazing 2018 season has begun.
