Jeong Seong-hoon, who pushed out Lee Dae-ho, is the opening game hero?

Will Jeong Seong-hoon, the new fourth hitter of the mighty Monsters, be able to become a hero in the opening game as he meets the opportunity of a lifetime?

In the 37th episode of JTBC's 'Best Baseball' broadcast on the 24th, Jeong Seong-hoon is shown coming to the plate with bases loaded and 1 out.

Jeong Seong-hoon has been trying to make up for his shortcomings since the end of last season. Even during spring camp, he worked more passionately than anyone else and showed a different side. Accordingly, coach Kim Seong-geun pushed out Lee Dae-ho, 'Chosun's fourth hitter', and selected Jeong Seong-hoon as the starter for the opening game of the 2023 season.

Jeong Seong-hoon showed great skill from the beginning of the game and supported Lee Dae-eun. As the tight streak of 0 continues, coach Kim Seong-geun begins to bring the flow of the game to full-scale strategic baseball. As a result of faithfully executing Manager Kim Seong-geun's strategy, the Strongest Monsters succeeded in creating a situation with the bases loaded and a runner out with one out. At the plate will be the Monsters' new fourth hitter, Seong-Hoon Jeong.

Caster Jeong Yong-geom, who was watching this from the broadcast stand, became extremely excited. Eventually, he complains of a headache, saying, “Oh, my blood pressure is going up.” There is no doubt that this is a huge opportunity that Jeong Seong-hoon may never have again, but the pressure is proportionately at its peak.

Attention is being paid to whether Jeong Seong-hoon can overcome the enormous pressure, make this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity his own, and become the hero of the opening game.
