Sajik Kim Soo-hyun heated up the All-Star Game with a hit off a 159-kilometer fastball from Prince Daejeon.
The KBO League All-Star Game was held in Busan after 16 years. Despite the inclement weather, the fun of watching baseball was multiplied by the various performances prepared by the players who participated in the All-Star Game.
One of the many highlights of the day was the matchup between Sharing All-Star Moon Dong-joo (Hanwha) and Dream All-Star Yoo Kang-nam (Lotte).
This season, Lotte’s Yoo Kang-nam and Hanwha’s Moon Dong-joo have a combined batting average of 0.667 with three hits, two doubles, and one walk. Yoo Kang-nam had a strong showing against Moon Dong-joo, a hard-throwing pitcher.
Moon Dong-ju took the mound as the eighth pitcher for the Nanum All-Stars. He threw a light 142km fastball against the first batter, Dream All-Star Kim Hyun-jun. In the second inning, he threw a 145-kilometer fastball that was grounded out in front of the pitcher.
After the first inning, Jung Soo-bin’s fly ball was high in the infield, and third baseman Roh Si-hwan signaled for the catch. Third baseman Noh Si-hwan catches the ball in front of the third base dugout. Pitcher Moon Dong-joo prepares to catch the ball with his glove. At that moment, third baseman Noh Si-hwan’s throw flew in a direction where no one could catch it. Moon Dong-joo, a junior, made a gesture of disbelief toward Noh Si-hwan, a senior.

Moon took the mound and threw five pitches, none of them over 150 kilometers. Once his shoulder loosened up, he started throwing hard fastballs.토토사이트
The first pitch he threw to Yoo Kang-nam, who came to bat in the second inning, touched 156 kilometers, and a roar went up. The next pitch, a 157-kilometer fastball that looked like it was lightly thrown, found the mitt of catcher Park Se-hyuk. 1B 1S Moon Dong-ju, the “Prince of Daejeon,” throws an outside fastball that is clocked at 159 mph on the scoreboard. Yoo Kang-nam, ‘Sajik Kim Soo-hyun’, hits a line drive into center field, out of the reach of the second baseman.
After hitting a fastball that reached nearly 160 kilometers thrown by Moon Dong-ju, the “Daejeon Prince,” Yoo Kang-nam, who is known as “Sajik Kim Soo-hyun,” smiled broadly as he was congratulated by first base coach Koo Ja-rook.
Baseball fans who filled Sajik Stadium to watch the All-Star Game even during the demonic rainy season enjoyed watching the exciting matchup between pitcher Moon Dong-ju and batter Yoo Kang-nam.
