National Team Coach Ryu Joong-il: “What Kind of Results will Noh Si-hwan Produce Against Big Leaguers?”
“Even if we lose, playing an exhibition game against an MLB team is a great experience for the players.”
“I also learned a lot through the Korea-Japan Super Game in 1991, said Ryu Joong-il (60), coach of the Korean national baseball team, while watching the San Diego Padres players of the Major League Baseball (MLB) training, recalling 33 years ago.”
Coach Ryu then thought of Korea’s young national team players who will soon face San Diego and was confident, “For these players, today’s and tomorrow’s games against the world’s best players will be a great help in their careers.”
The Korean baseball team will play a 2024 MLB Seoul Series warm-up match against San Diego at Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro-gu, Seoul, starting at 7 p.m. on the 17th.
On the 18th, they will face the Los Angeles Dodgers. 카지노사이트

Coach Ryu said, “The young players are the main players, but they are still representative players wearing the Taegeuk symbol.
I hope they can fight on equal footing with MLB players,” and added, “Even if they lose, the experience of playing against world-class players will be a tremendous benefit to our young representative players.” It will be an experience.
“I also felt a lot after playing the Korea-Japan Super Game in 1991,” he said.
He said, “I am confident that more than half of the 35 representatives selected for this MLB evaluation match will participate in the World Baseball Softball Federation Premier 12 in November this year,” and added, “I will participate in the Asian Games.”
The players who won the gold medal and are playing against MLB this time will achieve even better results in this year’s KBO League regular season.
“Experience is that important for players,” he emphasized.
A match against an MLB team can be a glorious moment for Coach Ryu as well.
Just before the game, Coach Ryu exchanges ‘starting lineup cards’ with San Diego Coach Mike Silt.
Director Ryu smiled brightly and said, “Personally, this is the happiest day.”
He prepared for the game with a smile, but after the play ball was called, Coach Ryu couldn’t help but worry.

It was written as Coach Ryu said, “First of all, we have included Choi Jeong-ye in the starting lineup.
After the 5th inning, we will use players evenly.
I am especially curious about what kind of results Noh Si-hwan, last year’s home run king, will produce against big league pitchers.”
San Diego has Sander Bohartz (second baseman), Fernando Tanis Jr. (right fielder), Jake Cronenworth (first baseman), Manny Machado (designated hitter), Ha-seong Kim (shortstop), Urickson Profar (left fielder), and Luis The starting lineup consisted of Campsano (catcher), Tyler Wade (third baseman), and Jaxon Merrill (center fielder).
Paris Olympics, Why is Only Sun Yingsha Cheered
“Why is Only Sun Yingsha Cheered?”… Why is there Biased Cheering in the Women’s Table Tennis Final [2024 Paris Olympics]
Women's Table Tennis Singles Finals: 'Family Fight'
Ranked 4th Chen Meng Defeats 1st Sun Yingsha.
Sun Yingsha's Fans Say "One-sided Support for Sun Yingsha Even Stopped the Match"
The controversy over distorted fandom culture has surfaced in the 2024 Paris Olympics table tennis women's singles final, which attracted attention as a match between Chinese players. 카지노사이트 추천
In the Paris Olympics table tennis women's singles final held at the South Paris Arena on the 3rd (local time), world No. 4 Chen Meng (China, 30) defeated No. 1 Sun Yingsha (24) 4-2 and won the gold medal.
Chen Meng won the singles title for the second consecutive time, following the last Tokyo Olympics.
During the match, the majority of the Chinese audience chanted "Sun Ying Sha."
Although all the players who made it to the finals were Chinese players, they showed biased cheers only for a certain player.
Hong Kong media outlet Phoenix News reported that "80% of the audience chanted "Sun Ying Sha, fight!" and "Chen Meng, fight!" could be heard once or twice."
Every time Sun Yingsha scored, the stands would roar, but on the other hand, when Chen Meng served or won a point, Sun Yingsha's fans would boo, and some would even wave their fingers and swear, causing the match to be halted.
After the match, when Chen Meng went up to the gold medal podium, many of the spectators also chanted Sun Yingsha's name.
Phoenix Wang, a reporter who was on the scene, said, "A French AFP reporter even asked, 'Why is everyone cheering for Sun Yingsha and not Chen Meng?'"
According to Phoenix News, an overheated fandom culture is emerging among fans of Chinese table tennis players.
The media explained the reason why Sun Yingsha fans are keeping an eye on Chen Meng, saying, "If Sun Yingsha wins, she will have achieved the fastest Grand Slam for a Chinese player in 433 days, and will be the first 'post-00' (born after 2000) to do so."
The scene that day also caused controversy among local table tennis fans in China.
On social media such as Weibo (the Chinese version of X), criticisms followed, such as, "Chen Meng had a hard time" "They are all players fighting for the honor of China, so why are they heckling her like this?" and "'Sisa' (Sun Yingsha's nickname) is a good player, but her fans are so malicious."
Singaporean media outlet United Zoubao also criticized this on the 4th, saying, "This is the emergence of a malicious fandom culture," and analyzing that a phenomenon often seen in entertainment industry fandoms has spread to the sports world.
The Chinese government is also wary of the deformed fandom culture of its sports fans.
In a meeting last May, the General Administration of Sports of China announced a policy stating, "We must resolutely block fandom culture throughout the entire process, including athlete selection and training."

Coach Cho was also worried that Choi Woo-jin seemed to have fallen into the second-year jinx.
He said, “At first, I didn't know much about it and took on the challenge with passion, but these days, I think I'm finding soccer difficult as well.
Although he was concerned that it could be a second-year jinx, he added, “The offensive options are quite good.
He expressed his affection, saying, “If I improve my positioning ability and gain experience, I think I have the skills to be a good resource not only for Incheon's future but also for the A team.”

“Individual development is ultimately the development of Incheon,” he said.
“Their void can be filled with good-willed competition from other players.”

Coach Cho said, “A good team doesn’t have ups and downs.
“We will maintain continuity without major fluctuations in both performance and rankings,” he declared.
“If we achieve an average attendance of more than 10,000 or have a full home crowd, we will think about a surprise event after the season”
Coach Cho, who set the goal of entering the Final A, said, He cautioned against the attitude of the ‘rabbit', referring to the ‘Rabbit and the Turtle'.
Director Cho said, “Like the rabbit, I will not look down on (the turtle) and be conceited, and will take one step at a time towards my goal, whether in good times or bad times.
“I will not be swayed by the surrounding circumstances, but will look ahead and aim for a big goal,” he pledged.
Incheon won 4 times and accumulated 12 points in Group G of the 2023-2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League (ACL) group stage, but lost on goal difference to Coach Choi Kang-hee's Shandong Taishan (China) and Yokohama Marinos (Japan).
They were pushed back and failed to advance to the round of 16.
Regarding the rumor that Group G was the ‘Group of Death' as Shandong and Yokohama both advanced to the ACL quarterfinals, Coach Cho said, “As a coach, I reflect on my shortcomings in game management and player management.
If I face the same situation next time, “I will not repeat my mistake,” he said, looking at himself rather than blaming his bad luck.
Manager Cho, who expressed his sense of responsibility as a manager, also mentioned manager Jurgen Klopp, who recently announced that he would step down as manager of Liverpool, a famous English professional football club in the Premier League (EPL).
Coach Cho said, “I am not in the same position as Manager Klopp, but I fully understand how he feels.”
Referring to the K-League opening media day scheduled for the 26th, he said, “Every time I go to Media Day, I worry, ‘Will I be able to stand here again next year?' “It intersects,” he said, expressing the enormous burden he felt as a director.
Meanwhile, on this day, 1,402 fans filled the 2024 season inauguration ceremony in Incheon, expressing their expectations for the new season.
Captain Lee Myung-joo pledged, “I prepared well by sweating a lot in Thailand and Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do.
I will prepare well for the remaining week and work hard to win the opening game.”
