Asian Games, Can Korea Regain Second Place Overall

Asian Games, Can Korea Regain Second Place Overall? Fierce Medal Competition with Japan

Korean archery, Japanese karate, etc. remain… Variables such as the final match at the end of the competition.

The 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, which opened on September 23rd and will close on the 8th,

is heating up the competition for final medals.

As of the 3rd, Korea has won 32 gold medals, 42 silver medals, and 65 bronze medals,

ranking third in the medal rankings after Japan with 33 gold medals, 47 silver medals, and 50 bronze medals.

China, with over 160 gold medals, is an overwhelming leader. 안전놀이터

Medal rankings such as those in the Olympics or Asian Games are not the official rankings of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) or the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA),

and also do not fit the recent trend of ‘medal color is not important’.

However, since the official website of the recent Olympics and Asian Games includes a section on medal rankings,

and every media outlet does not report medal rankings,

it is difficult for participating countries to not pay any attention.

The Korea Sports Council also set a goal of winning 50 gold medals and ranking 3rd in the overall ranking ahead of the Hangzhou Asian Games.

However, in the previous competition, the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta and Palembang,

Japan pledged to close the gap where there were 75 gold medals and Korea had 49.

However, with only 4 days left until the closing of the competition,

the gap in gold medals with Japan is only 1,

so it is also natural that they are aiming to ‘retake second place overall’ 9 years after the 2014 Incheon Games.

First of all, Korea and Japan left one ‘medal box’ event in the remaining match schedule.

Korea is looking forward to archery, which will produce gold medals starting on the 4th,

while Japan is expected to have karate starting on the 5th, which will be a ‘medal field’.

In archery, Korea won 4 out of 8 gold medals in the 2018 competition,

and in karate, Japan also won 4 out of 12 gold medals in 2018.

There are 10 gold medals at stake in archery and 14 gold medals in karate at this competition.

In Korea’s case, in addition to archery, gold medals are expected in soft tennis, badminton, sport climbing, soccer, track and field, baseball, breaking, handball, and wrestling in the remaining schedules.

If we do well, it is expected that we will be able to reach the target of 50.

An official from the Japanese Olympic Committee said on the 4th,

“Japan has not set a goal of winning a few gold medals at this event.

Depending on the situation in each event,

second-level athletes participated in gymnastics and track and field,

and 1.5-level athletes also participated in wrestling.” explained.

The events in which the second-tier players came overlapped with other competition schedules, such as the World Championships,

while the first-tier players participated in other events, such as swimming, table tennis, and badminton.

When asked to predict the sports with the potential for gold medals in the remaining schedule he responded,

“Artistic swimming, badminton, archery, wrestling, karate, men’s and women’s soccer, women’s volleyball, baseball, breaking, handball, hockey, soft tennis, etc.”

Student Baseball, A Wooden Bat or a Non-Wood Bat?

Which is Better for Student Baseball, A Wooden Bat or a Non-Wood Bat?’

Baseball Softball Association public hearing successfully completed… Association: “We will think deeply about it”

As there was a lot of discussion about whether wooden bats should continue to be used in student baseball or whether to return to non-wood bats,

such as aluminum bats, the Korea Baseball Softball Association (hereinafter referred to as the Association) held a public hearing and heard various opinions. 파워볼게임

According to the association on the 29th, a ‘public hearing regarding bats to be used in competitions for under-18s (high school)’ was held at Daejeon Health University the previous day with 90 field leaders, parents, players, and certified bat company officials in attendance.

A panel of experts, including journalists, discussed the clear definition and explanation of non-wood bats (alloy, hybrid, composite, etc.),

which were previously recognized as aluminum bats, the importance of thorough operation and management of the bat certification system,

the diversity and implications of interpretation through game data,

and the sports industry The need for a careful review of the overall situation, including the college entrance exam system, was shared with the attendees.

The association collected the results of a survey on bat material conducted over the past three years and student athlete game data (batting average, number of hits, number of home runs, slugging percentage, earned run average, strikeouts, average number of pitches per game, etc.)

since 2004 when the association switched to wooden bats, and reference materials such as non-wood bat testing methods and standards were presented.

As Korean baseball recently performed poorly in international competitions, voices began to emerge that non-wood bats should be used again in order to prevent student baseball, which is the lifeblood of baseball, from drying out.

The view is that if student athletes use non-wood bats with good repulsion and swing more boldly, their offensive power will improve.

Cost saving was also taken into consideration as it is more durable than wooden bats, which tend to break easily.

On the other hand, there is a counterargument that returning to non-wood bats without a thorough analysis after 20 years of using wooden bats could have a negative impact on the stabilization of player performance and the industry as a whole.

According to the association, attendees said, ‘It was an opportunity to clearly understand non-wood bats,’

‘I wish there were more events or opportunities like this in relation to the association system,’ and ‘There seem to be some aspects that need to be verified by forming an expert group.

It is said that responses such as ‘I hope it will be carried out with a sufficient grace period through a careful approach and clear procedures’.

In a bat preference survey conducted through anonymous voting after the public hearing,

wooden bats (67.9%) dominated non-wooden bats (30.9%).

Kim Yong-gyun, secretary general of the association, said, “We will continue to collect opinions from various stakeholders,

including coaches, players, and parents, and carefully consider the selection of student baseball bats.”

Kim Ha-seong, Hit Streak in All Exhibition Games

Kim Ha-seong, Hit Again Today… Hit Streak in All Exhibition Games

Ji-hwan Bae allowed 2 walks in 2 at-bats… Choi Ji-man is absent

San Diego Padres’ starting infielder Kim Ha-seong (28)’s bat did not rest today either.

Ha-seong Kim recorded 1 hit in 3 at-bats in a visiting game against the Chicago White Sox in the 2024 Major League Baseball (MLB)

exhibition game held at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Arizona, USA on the 29th (Korean time). 카지노사이트

As a result, Ha-seong Kim continued his hitting streak in all four exhibition games this year,

achieving outstanding results of 4 hits in 7 at-bats, a batting average of 0.571,

and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 1.414.

Kim Ha-seong, who started as the 5th hitter and shortstop, unfortunately retired in his first at-bat.

Ha-seong Kim produced a hit in his second at-bat.

With the score tied 0-0, he hit right-handed pitcher Brian Shaw with one out in the top of the third inning and hit a big hit.

KIA Tigers, With the Red Light on the Mound

KIA, with the red light on the mound, is a surefire ‘one-inning right-handed setup man’, but it’s disappointing

For the KIA Tigers, the leader in professional baseball who are facing mound management difficulties,

the bullpen staff they most need right now is a pitcher who can take responsibility for three out counts.

KIA will have to hold out for the time being with three starting pitchers,

Hyeon-jong Yang, James Nail, and Young-cheol Yoon, due to the elbow injury of Will Crowe,

who played as the first starter, and the departure of left-handed pitcher Lee Ui-ri, who is also recovering from elbow pain. 파워볼사이트

Crow was diagnosed with partial damage to his elbow ligaments,

so KIA must consider the possibility of having to replace him with another foreign pitcher in the worst case scenario.

A big hole appeared in the starting lineup that had supported KIA’s lead,

putting a strain on the bullpen.

KIA, which has used the tactic of ‘cutting off’ innings by mobilizing all available personnel in winning games,

is expected to rely more on the bullpen for the time being due to the anxiety of the starting pitchers.

However, it is not easy to manage the pitching lineup because there is no right-handed pitcher who can cleanly cover one inning.

The left-handed batting specialist trio of Kwak Do-gyu, Lee Jun-young, and Choi Ji-min are doing their part to some extent,

but the performance of the right-hander duo of Jang Hyun-sik and Jeon Sang-hyeon is not up to expectations.

Jang Hyun-sik and Jeon Sang-hyun’s average pitching innings per game is less than one inning.

In addition, Jeon Sang-hyun, who was diagnosed with a leg bruise after being hit by SSG Landers’ Guillermo Heredia’s batted ball on the 10th,

needs some more time to regain his normal condition.

Compared to SSG, where a solid setup man named Noh Kyung-eun is very active, the Samsung Lions,

who are supported by two right-handed veterans in Lim Chang-min and Kim Jae-yoon.

The NC Dinos, who have formed a new winning team with two fast-ball right-handed pitchers in Kim Jae-yeol and Han Jae-seung,

KIA’s right-handed setup man’s weakness is even more severe. It stands out.

Regardless of left and right-handers, KIA relief pitchers’ excessive walks have reached a dangerous level.

As of the 13th, KIA bullpen pitchers allowed 93 walks, the second most after SSG (101).

Choi Ji-min (15), Kwak Do-gyu (13), and Jang Hyun-sik (12) gave up a lot of walks in that order,

so they were often caught in the second half of the game.

Lee Jeong-hoo and Kim Ha-seong Replace ‘Korean Duo’

Evil’ due to injury… Lee Jeong-hoo and Kim Ha-seong replace ‘Korean big leaguer duo’ together

Lee Jeong-hoo is injured after colliding with a fence during defense…

Ha-Seong Kim was hit in the wrist by a pitch and the game ended.

The ‘Korean Duo’ playing in the Major League Baseball (MLB) was injured during the game and left the field. 카지노사이트킹

Lee Jeong-hoo (25, San Francisco Giants) was injured while playing defense in the top of the first inning in the 2024 MLB Cincinnati Reds game held at Oracle Park in San Francisco, California, USA on the 13th (Korean time).

Jeong-hoo Lee, who was unable to play in the game against the Colorado Rockies on the 9th after suffering a bruise after being hit in the foot by a foul ball,

returned to center field as the number one hitter after 4 games and did not enter a single at-bat.

Center fielder Lee Jeong-hoo, who was chasing Jamer Candelario’s home run with the bases loaded and two outs in the top of the first inning,

jumped to catch the ball but collapsed after colliding with the fence.

The batted ball hit the top of the fence and fell to the ground,

and in the meantime, all three runners hit home.

Candelario’s 3-RBI double.

Lee Jeong-hoo, who complained of shoulder pain,

was immediately replaced by Tyler Fitzgerald.

Lee Jeong-hoo’s batting average, who did not even have a single at-bat, remained at 0.262.

Ha-seong Kim (28, San Diego Padres) was hit by an opposing pitcher’s pitch and was eliminated from the game.

Ha-seong Kim, who started as the 9th hitter and shortstop in the game against the Los Angeles Dodgers held at Petco Park in San Diego, California,

hit the back of his left hand on Dodgers starter Walker Buehler’s 94.4 mph (approximately 152 km) body sinker in the 4th inning with one out and 1st and 2nd bases got hit hard

Kim Ha-seong, who was in pain and received first aid from a trainer for a while,

walked out to first base, and was thrown out at second base when the follow-up batter,

Luis Araes, hit an infield grounder and returned to the dugout.

However, perhaps due to severe pain, he was replaced at shortstop by Tyler Wade as soon as the top of the 5th inning started.

Kim Ha-seong, who had been retired by a fly ball in his second at-bat,

finished the game with no hits in one at-bat and one hit to the body,

causing his season batting average to drop slightly from 0.209 to 0.208.

gave him a generous score ahead of the first game of the doubleheader against KT Wiz to be held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 12th.

Coach Lee said, “Ramos is doing very well right now.

If he continues like he is now, I can’t ask for anything more.

He plays hard, hits hard, and plays hard defense.

“Now we are finally seeing what we hoped for when we signed the contract.”

As Ramos’ performance improves, the team atmosphere also brightens.

Coach Lee Seung-yeop added, “I think it was very difficult for Ramos because his batting skills were not good.

the atmosphere has become very bright.

I think he is in a good mood.”
