Corey Seager, an “old teammate” who made “Korean Monster” Ryu Hyun-jin (36) cry of the Toronto Blue Jays in the U.S. professional baseball league, continued his batting average and the possibility of winning the OPS reversal.
Seager of the Texas Rangers started as the second batter and shortstop in an away game against Toronto on the 13th (Korea Standard Time). He scored three hits, one RBI, one walk, and two runs in four at-bats, helping Texas win 6-3. In particular, Ryu Hyun-jin scored two hits, setting a stepping stone to the team’s victory.안전놀이터
In his first at-bat in the top of the first inning, he was grounded out to first base. In the full count game, Ryu hit a four-seam fastball of 90.3 miles per hour, but failed to make a hit. In his second at-bat in the top of the fourth inning, he recorded his team’s first hit and scored a run. As the leadoff hitter, he hit the first pitch of the 83.5-mile-per-hour cutter (about 134.4 kilometers) and got a heavy hit. He stepped home when Robbie Grossman, the follow-up hitter, hit a two-run home run.
Seager, who gave Ryu Hyun-jin his first hit and run, also entered the batter’s box as the leadoff hitter in the top of the sixth inning. He hit a slow curve to make a long hit. He missed the curve at 67.5 miles per hour (about 108.6 kilometers) on the first pitch. The second and third ball changeups and four-seam fastballs were selected with balls. He then hit a 67.1-mile-per-hour curve (107.9 kilometers) in the fourth pitch to make a double to center field. And he scored when he came home on Yoha Haim’s sacrifice hit.
Marking two hits and two runs against Ryu Hyun-jin, he hit a double again in his third at-bat in the seventh inning. He exploded an RBI double with two outs and runners on second base. He hit his 39th double of the season against Toronto’s third pitcher Tim Meiza. He immediately hit a timely hit against the changed pitcher to make a 5-0 score. It produced a decisive blow to the game.
