I want to compete with Otani.

The two consecutive games of the official opening of the 2024 Major League Baseball between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres also drew great attention from KBO leaguers early on. The event was raised, with the Major League Baseball secretariat naming it the so-called Seoul Series. The two teams entered Incheon International Airport on a private jet on the 15th and unpacked at a hotel near Gocheok Sky Dome.

The two teams will warm up side by side and hold a press conference. They will also meet fans at a baseball clinic. The team will have its last rehearsal for a special match on June 17 and 18. Dodgers will play against Kiwoom Heroes on June 17, San Diego will play against the Korean national baseball team on June 17, and LG Twins on June 18, respectively.

KBO leaguers are interested in the Dodgers, especially superstar Shohei Ohtani 30. Some pitchers wanted to face Ohtani in person, and some hitters wanted to see him hit and defend himself.

Kiwoom Heroes pitchers and the national team pitchers are the players who will face off against Ohtani. Unlike LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki has never revealed his plan to manage the mound against the Dodgers. If Kim Jae-woong and Cho Sang-woo, two of the most famous pitchers in Kiwoom, can play against Ohtani, it would be a big topic of conversation. The two pitchers have strong pitching. However, since they are bullpen pitchers, there is no guarantee that they will face off against Ohtani even if they take the mound.

Then, the actual focus is on the Korean national team. Who will take the mound as the starting pitcher? Considering the value of a pitcher’s name, pitch and popularity, Moon Dong-ju Hanwha Eagles and Lee Ui-ri KIA Tigers are the best. “I want to take on Otani” in February at the Melbourne Spring Camp in Australia.

At the time, Moon Dong-ju said he had image-training on his showdown with Ohtani in his heart. When asked what kind of ball he would throw to the first pitch, he smiled innocently and said, “It’s a secret.” He hid his strategy thoroughly, saying Ohtani could see the article.

Ryu Joong-il, the starting pitcher for the Dodgers game, may be revealed by manager Ryu Joong-il, who will face reporters at the national team’s training on the 16th. He is a leader of Media Frandley and Fan Frandley, so there is ample possibility. It would be good if Moon Dong-ju or Lee Eui-ri overwhelmed Ohtani with a 150-160km fastball to show the strength of the Korean baseball.

There are other variables. According to U.S. media, Ohtani will not play in all of Dodgers’ special matches. Ohtani also appeared in Arizona exhibition games every two to three games. Of course, he can play in both Kiwoom and the national team game, but he can also play in only one game. If he plays against the national team, he will make headlines. 토토사이트
