Ch 174

One.

As always, a horse without feet becomes a monster without feet after running a thousand miles.

[Lee Jin-yong, I want to throw with my right hand until the end of the 9th.]

This was also the case with Jinyong Lee’s interview.

Of course, Hwang Seon-woo wrote an interview article with Lee Jin-yong like a reporter. Articles with no particular issues.

However, the content of the article published by Hwang Seon-woo began to be distorted and inflated, contrary to his intentions and without the need for his hands.

[Lee, for the Giants, the right hand is enough!]

[Lee, the Giants aren’t even worth using their left hand!]

[Lee, the Giants are plastic!]

At some point, Jinyong Lee was in a situation where he dismissed the Giants as a very insignificant existence.

Naturally, the public did not let Lee Jin-yong stand still.

– Puking Howman!

– Damn you! How can you be so cocky about setting some records just by luck?

– I’ve never seen one last as long as these guys! It’s going to be very shattered soon.

-The crazy torai cub!

Criticism against Lee Jin-yong arose.

Lee Jin-yong was not the same as everyone in the major leagues.

– It’s not funny to underestimate the Giants when it comes to the Mets.

– The Mets are always like that, right? This year is said to be different, but it eventually falls to the bottom in the middle of the season.

He was always a player for the Mets, and of course 29 major league clubs except for the Mets did not like Jinyong Lee’s performance.

Of course, among the fans of the 29 clubs, there were a lot of people who wanted Jinyong Lee to go down.

Everyone who didn’t like Lee Jin-yong bit Lee Jin-yong online.

Among the dogs, the anger of the Giants fans was enormous.

That anger was revealed in nothing else but ticket sales for the Giants vs. Mets, three games in a row at AT&T Park.

[Giants vs. Mets 3 series series sold out!]

Although it is still early in May, when baseball fever heats up, more than 40,000 spectators came to AT&T Park.

– Let’s show the Mets. Who is the sky and who is the earth.

– Let’s smash the Mets so they don’t mess around with their snouts again!

– Houman, I’m going to stop you so that bastard doesn’t rain!

To watch the Mets and Lee Jin-yong go down horribly.

Naturally, the atmosphere of the Giants fans toward Jinyong Lee was bloody.

– Whoa, that’s terrible. Jinyong-ah, so you have to do it in moderation. What kind of confidence did a guy with no skills do such a thing?

The situation online, which can be checked in real time through a smartphone, is so much that even Kim Jin-ho puts out his tongue!

In the end, Kim Jin-ho scolded Lee Jin-yong.

– Man, baseball is a gentleman’s sport. We need to show respect and courtesy to each other. People who only flutter their snouts like you can tear their snouts later.

Jin-yong Lee touched the smartphone with a tuk-tuk to Kim Jin-ho, searched for something, and showed Kim Jin-ho what he was looking for.

– What else is this?

Kim Jin-ho looked at the smartphone that appeared in front of him and checked the contents with a blunt reaction.

That was a column from a major league reporter.

[Lee’s behavior is similar to Kim’s in the past. […]

Kim Jin-ho, who saw the contents of the column, averted his eyes from his smartphone.

– Whoops, whoops!

Then, after coughing a few times, he looked at Lee Jin-yong with a squint and said.

– Well, people can make mistakes when they talk.

“Yes.”

Jin-yong Lee chimed in with Jin-ho Kim’s words.

Kim Jin-ho looked at Lee Jin-yong like that with a grim expression and said.

– Hey, I’m wrong, but you’re not!

With that said, Jinyong Lee put down his smartphone and said.

“I didn’t mean it this way. I just said that I would throw with my right hand until the last out in the ninth inning was caught, but people interpreted it too much.”

– Enlarged interpretation?

And immediately, Jin-yong Lee started to tidy up his nails using the prepared tool.

– Why is he trimming his left hand nails?

At Jinho Kim’s words, Jinyong Lee smiled instead of answering.

2.

[Giants vs. Mets, 3 straight games started!]

A three-game series between the Giants and the Mets at AT&T Park, home of the Giants.

[The Giants beat the Mets!]

[Giants win again!]

The winners of the first and second games of the two teams, reminiscent of the postseason rather than the regular season, were the Giants.

[The Mets bow their heads in disastrous defeat!]

[Mets, are you okay with this?]

Also, it wasn’t just a win, it was a supremacy.

The first game was a huge 9-1, 8-point lead, and the second game was also 7-0, with the Giants winning the game against the Mets.

From the standpoint of winning, a victory that is satisfactory enough that it does not matter what the rest of the game is.

However, the Giants fans and players prepared for Game 3 without showing any satisfaction.

No, it wasn’t that I wasn’t satisfied with it.

Rather, more spectators came to AT&T Park earlier than the previous two games, and they were spewing bitter hostility, murderous will, and fighting spirit.

Of course, that was the reason.

“Pucking Howman!”

“I’m going to give you a lot of shatter today!”

Jinyong Lee.

Until the man who touched the pride of the Giants, no one else, became a corpse, the Giants fans seemed unsatisfied.

Even the atmosphere was a bit dangerous.

Whoa!

The moment Lee Jin-yong left the ground for running, boos were poured out at Lee Jin-yong everywhere.

Even the Mets players shuddered at the sight.

‘Worst.’

To be honest, during the previous two games, Mets players were dissatisfied with Jinyong Lee.

It was a clear fact that he made the game atmosphere bad by making provocations that didn’t have to be done.

However, after losing in the previous two matches, he could no longer be dissatisfied when he saw Jin-yong Lee, who will now be the ace of the team and will be on stage today.

‘It’s really bad.’

‘To throw a ball on the mound on a day like this, I can’t even die.’

‘How much less if the opponent is Bumgarner….’

Being on the mound in such an atmosphere made me feel pity.

Jinyong Lee could not have known the atmosphere around him.

Whoa!

But Lee Jin-yong did what he had to do perfectly in the midst of boos pouring in from all directions.

He looked at the condition of the ground, looked at the atmosphere of the stadium, looked at his own body, and started warming up.

Of course, I ignored the boos.

Whoa!

– Hey, AT&T Park has this kind of atmosphere.

On the other hand, Kim Jin-ho was not ignoring this situation, but was curious.

– When I came here, there was no booing, everyone just kept their mouths shut as if they were dead mice.

The atmosphere of AT&T Park that Kim Jin-ho remembers was a quieter baseball field than anywhere else.

That was the presence Jinho Kim showed in the major leagues.

Kim Jin-ho had an aura that was more than just visible grades.

There was a sense of intimidation befitting a ruler.

– On the other hand, a trash pitcher came here and kept his mouth shut like a mouse.

Jin-ho Kim said to Lee Jin-yong, who was running quietly.

Whoa!

Then, the Giants fans booed Lee Jin-yong as if responding to Kim Jin-ho’s words.

Kim Jin-ho smiled at that fact.

– Oh, the Giants are suddenly starting to get better. Sorry Giants fans. I’m sorry for harassing you so much while on active duty. God, I repent now. So I’ll take whatever punishment I get. Of course, this guy, my disciple, will take the punishment for me.

That was then.

“like.”

Jinyong Lee suddenly made a short sound.

– yes?

Whoa!

Behind Jinyong Lee’s brief sound, Giants fans’ boos were heard, and Jinyong Lee spit it out again after timing it.

“like.”

Whoa!

Jin-yong Lee smiled at the harmonious harmony, and Jin-ho Kim, who saw it, said with a surprised expression.

– Wow… that’s really great. You really are a great kid.

3.

Most stadiums have space for journalists.

The same is true of MLB stadiums.

True to the reputation of Major League Baseball, one of the world’s most expensive professional sports, major league stadiums had a press room that was incomparable to those of Korean baseball stadiums.

No matter how many reporters came, an environment was created where they could comfortably write articles.

However, the press room of AT&T Park, where the final game between the Giants and the Mets was held, was packed with so many reporters that it was hard to find a place to even breathe.

“what? Why are there so many people?”

“No, it’s not the World Series, what’s going on?”

More than the postseason, the atmosphere was reminiscent of the World Series.

Of course, no one knew why.

“Lee, you are a great guy. One way or another, he makes a spotlight wherever he goes.”

“right. Because not everyone has the ticket power to sell out away matches.”

“Commissioner Rob will love it. Because the villain appeared very openly when there was a need for a villain.”

Jinyong Lee.

Reporters all knew he had created this situation.

“So how can a Howlman beat Mad Bum?”

Naturally, the reporters’ stories were only about Jinyong Lee and Madison Bumgarner.

“The score will not come easily. They both have 0 defense so far, right?”

“Hawman scored 45 innings in 5 games and Mad Bum played 6 games and scored 43 innings.”

Dragon Pumpkin.

There were no other expressions that could explain the presence of Jinyong Lee and Madison Bumgarner at present.

“Simply looking at the grades themselves, Houman is the best.”

Of course, it was only natural that Jinyong Lee’s presence was stronger, with a shutout victory in five consecutive games and a no-hit game.

“But Howman spoke with my mouth. I will only use my right hand in today’s game. That is a significant handicap.”

“right.”

The problem is that Jinyong Lee sealed his left hand by himself.

“I have pride, but I have to keep my words.”

Now, even because of his pride, he literally said that he had no choice but to use his right hand until he got the last out in the 9th inning.

“And the mood has already shifted perfectly towards the Giants.”

“It’s like a postseason vibe. And the even-numbered Giants in the postseason….”

“Not terrifying.”

And that all the current atmosphere is created in an overwhelmingly favorable state for the Giants.

“In this atmosphere, would Bumgarner be able to throw in the 11th as well as the 10th?”

Crucially, the pitcher who showed a stronger image than anyone else in this atmosphere was pitcher Madison Bumgarner.

Isn’t it possible that there is a stronger big game feature in the big game than the pitcher who played 3 games on the 2014 World Series stage, threw 21 innings, recorded 2 wins, 1 save, and an ERA of 0.43?

Because of that, all the reporters who filled the press room spoke.

“The only thing a Howman can do is to do well to get a draw.”

“right. If we do well, we will be able to go down the mound with no decision, no wins, no losses, and a scoreless record.”

Jinyong Lee did a good job just by keeping the scoreless record.

Of course, one reporter who filled the press room had a different opinion.

‘Lee Jin-yong was originally a right-handed pitcher. Even when he threw a 120-kilometer ball with his right hand, he was active at the pro level, but now he’s throwing a 150-kilometer ball with his right hand.’

Sunwoo Hwang.

In a sense, he could be said to be the main culprit that caused this situation.

Jinyong Lee can cook major league hitters with just his right hand.

‘Above all, Jinyong Lee’s greatest strength is his planning ability to lead all matches at his own pace.’

Crucially, Hwang Seon-woo knew that Lee Jin-yong was not just a good pitcher, but an excellent planner who planned everything before and after the game.

So Hwang Seon-woo was convinced.

‘The interview itself was not a mistake in the first place, it was an aim.’

Everything that is happening now is what Jinyong Lee expected and what he is aiming for.

“The game begins.”

At that moment the game started.

4.

Jinyong Lee.

The one and only record holder in the history of Major League Baseball that played in 5 games and scored 45 innings without scoring, five shutouts, one no-hit game and 11 strikeouts in a row.

Madison Bumgarner.

A big game pitcher who appeared in 6 games and threw 43 innings and scored no goals, showing a strong performance in a bigger game than anyone else in the major leagues.

Needless to say, when these two met at AT&T Park, which is considered to be the most favorable pitch for pitchers in the major leagues, no one thought that the score would come easily.

The pitchers responded brilliantly to everyone’s thoughts.

Once Madison Bumgarner, he showed off to the Giants fans who filled the home stadium.

“Swing, strike out!”

– Bumgarner! He strikes out once again. 7 innings scoreless! And 14 strikeouts!

– Nice pitching. It looks stronger than ever. I’m guessing. Bumgarner today is stronger than he was in the 2014 World Series!

His pitching was flawless, using a four-seam fastball that can reach up to 96 mph and a two-seam fastball that shows absolute movement beyond the power level, driving the batter to the edge of the cliff with two strikes, and catching the batter with a slider that comes out of a unique pitching form. .

Mad Bum, a pitch that was worthy of that nickname.

Naturally, there was no room for Mets hitters to score points from such Madison Bumgarner.

Of course, Lee Jin-yong’s pitching was not lacking compared to him.

This was Posted in koreanmtl.online

pop!

“Strike out!”

– Lee strikes out once again! It’s my tenth strikeout today!

– Incredible. Seeing Lee’s right-hand pitching properly like this shows how great a pitcher he is. Perfect. From control to commander, pitch selection and timing. It just shows the correct answer.

Top speed is 92 miles.

However, starting with the four-seam fastball, Lee Jin-Yong’s right-handed pitching, which perfectly uses sliders, curves, and even changeups, to modified fastballs such as cut fastball, two-seam fastball, and split-finger fastball, was making the concept of restraint useless.

Everyone was surprised by that fact.

– Houman’s right hand pitching is awesome, right?

– Is throwing only the right hand a handicap?

– You cook to perfection. Cook the batter.

– I’d rather throw it with my left hand as a handicap. You can’t even control your left hand, right?

I knew that Jinyong Lee’s right hand was like a sophisticated sniper rifle, but no one knew it would be this big.

Also, I had to not know.

Jinyong Lee intentionally took out his left hand when his right hand was highlighted and hid his right hand.

He did not forget that the value of a sniper shines most when his existence is not revealed.

But today, Jinyong Lee did not hide how perfect his right hand was a hunter.

In front of that fact, the Giants hitters who wanted to kill Lee Jin-yong, and the Giants fans who wanted to see Jin-yong Lee run away from the mound after being hit, had no choice but to keep their mouths shut.

“downpour!”

Lee Jin-yong’s cheers echoed inside the quiet AT&T Park.

At the end of the 7th, both teams’ scores were still tightly balanced 0-0.

Now there are only 2 innings left.

“Do you think we will go to overtime?”

“At this pace, you will never score in the 8th or 9th.”

But no one could have imagined that the score would come in the remaining two innings, or that the game would end at the end of the ninth.

In the midst of such circumstances, Madison Bumgarner finally revealed her will.

“I’m going to the end of the day.”

Madison Bumgarner announced he would hold the mound until today’s win.

And that was pitcher Madison Bumgarner.

A pitcher who is willing to burn himself for the pride and pride of the team.

That fact changed the eyes of the Giants players.

‘We have Bumgarner.’

‘Yeah, whether it’s the 10th or the 11th, Bumgarner will perfectly protect the mound.’

Madison Bumgarner’s declaration began to warm the hearts of Giants hitters.

Such a Giants team began to stare at Jin-yong Lee, who went into the dugout, with a force to bite and kill.

Of course, Jinyong Lee and Jinho Kim also felt the change in their gaze.

– Jinyong-ah, I think Bumgarner said something? Seeing how the Giants look at you has changed.

“What would you say?”

– Let’s try it! What would it have been?

“You said Bumgarner spoke Korean, and also the Busan dialect?”

– That’s what I mean.

At that moment, Jin-ho Kim spoke bluntly to Jin-yong Lee.

– Anyway, Jinyong wants you. ‘Cause it’s what you want

At that, Jinyong Lee activated his ability window instead of answering.

‘I sowed seeds with my right hand…’

Seeing this, Jinyong Lee smiled.

‘Now there is only one thing left to harvest with the left hand.’
