Ch 152
One.
[The 2018 MLB season begins!]
On Monday, April 2, 2018, the opening game began, marking the start of the Major League Pennant Race.
[Now is the age of the bat flip!]
[No more boring baseball!]
With the start of the season, the media began to vomit articles that fueled the baseball fever as if they had been waiting.
[Cubs challenge history beyond the curse!]
[Shall the Yankees re-establish the Evil Empire?]
[Dodgers challenge to win again!]
Naturally, there were also articles about a team that was rich, popular, and qualified and able to win the World Series.
[Chris Sale vs Clayton Kershaw, who is the best left-handed pitcher?]
[Justin Verlander, now resurrected!]
[Mike Trout, show the power of a living legend!]
[Bryce Harper, the era of the bat flip, when you become the best star player!]
[Shohei Ohtani, 20 wins – 20 home runs challenge with a double sword!]
In addition, articles about popular and talented players also poured like crazy.
Of course, there was also Jinyong Lee’s knight among the waves of knights pouring in.
[Lee Jin-yong, fantastic rainshow! I’ll show you something!]
However, Jinyong Lee’s expression, who found the article, was not very good.
“It’s a fantastic hosho, what do you mean by this? It’s not like we’re fucking in a nightclub…”
It was a dissatisfaction with the poor expression and not many articles.
Kim Jin-ho said as if scolding him.
– This was enough for a guy who didn’t throw a single ball in an official Major League game.
“Are the articles of Otani pouring out?”
– Jinyong-ah, do you want to hear me tell you the difference between you and Ohtani? huh?
“I was wrong.”
– Hey, and this is pretty awesome.
Of course, that didn’t mean he wasn’t very interested.
As Jinho Kim said, there were quite a few articles.
– The problem is that there’s too much lighting. The size is different from Korean professional baseball. Even with a simple calculation, if 30 clubs select only one representative pitcher and one representative batter, there are already 60 players, right? Even their popularity is so great that all baseball fans all over the world know.
The only problem was that, since MLB is a world of stars, there are so many famous stars.
– Of course, outside of baseball, players like me with good looks and good personality, who can set a good example for others, push them away early and become famous.
“Yeah, that’s why he was nicknamed the Silent Assassin. He was famous for killing people.”
– Hey, I’ve been famous ever since! Since the minor league days, they beat all the kids and the navigation of the minor league.
“Dog?”
– Ah, no… So, the destroyer of the minor league… Yeah, the destroyer of the minor league! so called
“Really?”
– Gee, it’s true!
“Shall we do a Google search?”
– Hey, why are you so busy working so hard? huh? ah! You’re playing against the Braves today, aren’t you? Hey, the Braves were a really strong team when I was younger. Did this team win the district championship 14 years in a row? Even Greg Maddox, John Smoltz and Tom Glavine were on the same team. As a hitter, if I got a matchup with the Braves, I wanted to be on the injured list, so I created injuries that didn’t exist. nothing
Jin-yong Lee only snorted at the sight of Jin-ho Kim, who spoke quickly.
I didn’t pay much attention to the Braves.
“So what do you do, there’s no point in playing with the Braves with me anyway.”
Because there was no reason to care.
The Mets will play three games in a row against the Braves at home in their opening game, and the starting pitchers for this game were set with three starting pitchers: DeGrom, Syndergaard, and Harvey.
In the case of Jinyong Lee, he was appointed as the starter in the first game against the Nationals, an away game to be played after three consecutive games against the Braves.
The possibility that Jinyong Lee would appear in the match against the Braves was natural, but there was none.
Of course, no one knows how to play baseball.
– Oh, I don’t know. I went up to the 14th overtime, but there is no batter to come out, so I might let you go.
Especially in the major leagues, where games are played until the game is split without a draw, something ridiculous could happen at any time.
“Does that make sense?”
– There’s nothing wrong with that. After all, you’re the hitter against Chris Sale, right? It’d be better to go to the 14th inning and play you rather than throw a half-baked hitter against a pitcher who’s gone mad?
“No, so does it make sense to go to the 14th overtime?”
At Lee Jin-yong’s words, Kim Jin-ho said with a smirk.
– Jinyong-ah, you still don’t know the Mets.
“Yes?”
– You will have an amazing experience that cannot be compared to the Amazing Mets and Angels.
And Kim Jin-ho’s words became a reality.
2.
– Oh, the ball floats high.
– You’re too strong.
– At the end of the 12th, the Mets can’t call the runner on third base and go to the 13th.
– It is an amazing opening match in many ways.
On Monday, April 2nd, a dark night began to fall on Citi Field, home of the Mets.
Now it’s time to go home and get ready for bed drunkenly.
However, there were still quite a few spectators in Citi Field.
“Crazy, what the hell is this from the opening game.”
At the end of the 12th inning, the Mets and the Braves, who were still unable to win, entered the 13th.
“Oh, you should have just stopped it in the ninth!”
“Damn, what the hell is this from the opening game!”
“Mets bastards, don’t bring any weird catchers, get a bullpen pitcher!”
Actually, the game wasn’t meant to be like this.
From the start of the game, victory or defeat was determined to some extent.
The Mets ace pitcher Jacob deGrom, who appeared as a starting pitcher, pitched 6 innings and 1 run like an ace, while RA Dickey, who came out as a starting pitcher, went down the mound after scoring 4 runs in 5 innings.
After that, the Braves sent out a pursuit team to come up with their own twist, and the Mets sent a winning team to catch the game.
It was understandable enough in a three-point situation.
Nevertheless, it was also a game where the outcome of the match was judged.
Either the Mets finish the inning in the top of the ninth, or the Braves win a miraculous comeback.
But in the ninth inning, after the Braves hit a three-run home run that wiped out the three-point difference at once, the game started to turn strangely.
They entered the 10th inning in a 4v4 situation, and in the 10th, the two teams went into the 11th inning 6-6 with the teams once again exchanging 2 points each.
And in the 11th inning, they exchanged a whopping 3 points and entered the 12th inning 9-9.
And now the 12th episode is over.
The score is still 9-9, entering the 13th inning.
“Are there any players you want to send out now?”
“Didn’t both the pitcher and the batter use almost all of them?”
It goes without saying, but in 12 innings, the Mets, the Braves, and a lot of players were consumed.
There are now only a handful of players who can be replaced.
It is a situation that can be seen in major league overtime, where a batter becomes a pitcher on the mound.
‘Oh my God, is this real?’
Jinyong Lee looked at the scene with a puzzled expression.
– Look, did I say that?
On the other hand, Kim Jin-ho looked at Lee Jin-yong with a smile that he knew it would be like this.
– The Mets are amazing.
At those words, Jin-yong Lee looked at Jin-ho Kim with an absurd expression on his face and said with an expression.
‘No, you can still do amazing things like this!’
To be honest, Jinyong Lee didn’t really know that the match would go like this.
In his view, today’s game was quite MLB-like.
In fact, Jinyong Lee, who watched today’s match, was impressed.
I was surprised at DeGrom’s pitching that he never tire of throwing a 100-mile ball throughout the game, and I was amazed at the power of the Braves hitters who made hits against such deGrom. In front of the defenses of the two teams that make it look like a batting blow, exclamations came out of nowhere.
Really, this is MLB!
With such admiration, I was thrilled to know that now we have to fight a war in this league.
‘Isn’t the performance too extreme?’
But at some point, those players became fools.
Mistakes were made in defense, which he had taken for granted so far, his concentration at bat disappeared, and his control on the mound was lost.
At some point, games that did not fit into the major leagues began to appear.
Kim Jin-ho was happy to explain that fact.
– Originally, yes. When racing at 100km, even a small mistake seems like no big deal, and an accident does not happen even if you look away for a while, but when you race at 200km, an accident occurs the moment you lose concentration. keep in mind In the major leagues, people with the best physical ability make games with a high level of concentration. If you twist, it will fall off.
Kim Jin-ho, who spoke out, was ridiculed the moment he saw the Mets dugout, the perpetrators and victims of this disastrous incident.
– Well, the Mets were a bit overdone.
Jinyong Lee did not answer that fact.
– yes?
No, I couldn’t answer.
– Jinyong-ah, look over there. The hitting coach and the coach are talking over there.
because we met
– Looking at you.
The hitting coach and coach Collins talking while looking at themselves, their eyes.
In the end, the prediction became a reality.
“Lee, I have something to tell you.”
3.
In the 13th, both the Mets and Braves finished the inning without scoring.
Now it’s time to start round 14.
In the 14th inning, which is rare even in the major leagues, naturally, baseball fans who watched other games or were silent began to take an interest.
– Amazing Metsune!
– After all, Metsuya! Amazing!
– It’s the last battle on the planet!
Their interest was full of ridicule.
I couldn’t help it.
The era when they were called the rulers of the Eastern Division of the National League in the past is over, and now the Braves, who have the most miserable future in the league, and the Mets, who are now on the path of downfall since last season, the battle between the two teams is a disastrous battle that cannot be seen as a glory. because it had to be
– Losing here will really ruin the season.
– If this is lost, this season will be practically over.
So both teams were desperate to win this match even more.
The fact that they couldn’t even get it on a stage where there was only one win would be a loss of even their pride in the major leagues and their lives to win.
In such a situation, the Mets seized the opportunity at the end of the 14th.
A runner who got a walk in a first-person situation succeeded in stealing, and then after another walk came out, a true base came out, and the situation became a two-person first and third base situation.
The problem is that the person standing at the plate is the pitcher.
“There is only one hitter.”
“Yes.”
So the Mets sent the last remaining batter as a substitute.
In fact, I was guessing to some extent while I was sending it out.
“As expected, you walk through the filter.”
That the Braves would walk away against a pinch hitter.
But it was unavoidable.
It was difficult to expect a pitcher to score in a situation of 2nd, 1st and 3rd while the pitcher was standing.
Above all, the Mets had something to look forward to in that situation.
“Daddy!”
Mets, they cast their pinch card once again.
“lee!”
Jin-Yong Lee as a pinch hitter.
4.
– Heavy rain!
It was sudden.
– What is a heavy rain?
– It’s 3 days after the game with Hou Lee, what kind of bullshit?
– A shepherd boy?
Jinyong Lee, his name suddenly began to be discussed among Korean baseball fans.
Of course, no one believed it at first.
For Korean baseball fans, Jinyong Lee’s match was D-3.
– uh? is it really ho?
– What, really heavy rain?
However, Korean baseball fans knew that Lee Jin-yong’s appearance was not the cry of a shepherd boy, but the delivery of very truthful information.
Furthermore, more detailed information was obtained.
– Heavy rain? What else is this?
– I really don’t know. What the hell is this bastard?
Jinyong Lee, that he stood on the mound as a hitter and not a pitcher.
Even that it was a two-billion situation at the end of the 14th.
In such a situation, Jin-yong Lee, who is now preparing to stand at the plate, burst into laughter without realizing it.
He said softly between those laughs.
“It’s really amazing.”
Jinyong Lee, now wearing gloves and a helmet, headed to the plate with the horse, a voice could be heard in his ears.
[I will play as a substitute. The amount of points earned is increased by 50%.]

Jinyong Lee’s newly acquired skill began to breathe energy into Jinyong Lee at this moment.
At the same time, it appeared

When the skill’s guide sound ended, then Jinyong Lee memorized the spell.

[Physical increased by 3 due to Last Chance skill effect.]
[The balance has been increased by 2 due to the Last Chance skill effect.]
[Last Chance Skill Effect has increased Pioneering Eye by 1.]
[The amount of points acquired increases by 50% by the effect of the Last Chance skill.]
A really long reminder from the baseball manager.
Behind the announcement of such a baseball manager, an indispensable voice was heard.
– This fucking trash game.
The game started with Kim Jin-ho’s voice and that voice.
“Play Ball!”
At the end of the 14th inning with two bases full, Jin-Yong Lee finally started his MLB regular season debut.
