It’s a very proud winter.
Two unexpected injuries. The genius hitter who did not retreat even once after entering the pro in 2018 was also irresistible.
I couldn’t get my ankle out of the trap of an injury like a sticky swamp. It was his worst performance in his fifth season.
And the ransom was calculated. The annual salary, which had risen sharply every year, was cut in half.
Pride did not allow at least 200 million won. I put off the field training and endured, but in the end I couldn’t beat the club. This is the story of Kang Baek-ho (24), the leading batter of KT Wiz.
550 million won → 290 million won. It was a whopping 47.3% cut. All of the salary increase, which was significantly raised from 310 million won last year, was returned.
On the 31st of last month, two days later than his colleagues, Kang Baek-ho, who departed for Arizona, USA, a KT camp site, via Incheon International Airport, left a meaningful story for the reporters gathered at the airport.
“Salary is not everything. I will show you this year that salary does not divide a player’s grade.”
A firm commitment to recovering scarred pride. It was an expression of his will to fill the gap with Lee Jung-hoo (1.1 billion won), a 1-year senior Kiwoom Heroes hitter who competed for the highest impression every year, with his skills to 810 million won.
The first step in restoring honor is the WBC stage in March.
It is a stage that will shake off the regrets of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, which had many twists and turns, and confirm its status as a genius hitter who can work on the world stage. 온라인바카라
The conditions are good. Kang Baek-ho was named as the first baseman of the national team along with fellow teammate Park Byung-ho and big leaguer Choi Ji-man (Pittsburgh). However, Pittsburgh, which was concerned about the aftereffects of the operation, opposed the selection of first baseman Choi Ji-man to the national team. Upon hearing the news on the 6th, the KBO Technical Committee suddenly selected outfielder Choi Ji-hoon (SSG) instead of Choi Ji-man. Only two left at first base. Suddenly, he has to defend first base with Park Byung-ho.
In other words, it is a great opportunity to show off your abilities to the fullest.
If Park Byeong-ho starts as the first baseman, Kang Baek-ho is likely to start as the designated hitter. If first baseman Choi Ji-man had boarded as scheduled, he would have competed with Park Byung-ho for the designated hitter position. The sudden departure of Choi Ji-man increased the possibility of securing a stable full-time starting position.
Kang Baek-ho, a genius hitter who is taking on the international stage with his own temper. This is a great opportunity to compete with senior Lee Jung-hoo, the ‘eternal rival’ who has booked to enter the big leagues after this season.
This tournament will draw the attention of big league scouts in many ways. If he makes a surprise performance, Kang Baek-ho can also prepare a foothold for the big leagues several years later. An important competition to secure a guaranteed future along with restoration of honor. The genius hitter’s eyes are shining.
