There is a player who quietly stands out in the Samsung Lions, the "team of home runs (38).바카라사이트
He is not a slugger who can hit home runs with a bang. However, he has not posted a batting average of over 300,000 or posted several stolen bases. However, Lee's contribution to victory (War, based on the Korea Baseball Organization) is 1.71, ranking first in the league. Lee Jae-hyun, a Samsung infielder, is leading Samsung's rise by showing a quiet but strong performance.
Lee Jae-hyun played in 29 games this season and posted a batting average of 0.287 (27 hits in 94 times at bat), four homers, 18 RBIs and 24 runs scored. His on-base percentage (0.460) and slugging percentage (0.479) combined is 0.939. He ranked third in runs scored and second in on-base percentage, serving as a link between the batters and the troubleshooter.
It is related to his role this season. Lee Jae-hyun has been playing the role of the "madangsoe" of Samsung's batting lineup this year. He started every game as a shortstop, which requires a lot of physical strength, and he silently played the role that the team wanted by moving between the upper and lower batters. When the main leadoff Kim Ji-chan was out due to an injury in early April, Lee Jae-hyun was in charge of the first batter's box, and after returning, he moved to the second batting order or the lower batting order and played a good role as a link between the central and upper batters.
This is the result of his efforts to improve accuracy last winter. Lee Jae-hyun honed his swing to improve accuracy during the off-season. "Lee Jae-hyun had a slightly bigger arc at the back of his swing last year. However, after his visit to the U.S. this year, the back has become more concise and the swing trajectory at the front has grown. I think he has realized that a good batting will come out only when the swing trajectory is bigger than the back," Samsung coach Park Jin-man once said.
What is encouraging is the number of walks Lee Jae-hyun has taken. Although it is early in the season, Lee Jae-hyun has already taken 28 walks. He is No. 1 in the league. He has improved his pioneering skills. This is why coach Park Jin-man put Lee Jae-hyun in the leadoff. At the time, coach Park Jin-man said, "Lee Jae-hyun is the best among our batters in terms of pioneering eyes and on-base percentage." "I think he has gained a lot of experience and has improved his ability to cope with the batter's box. He seems to have his own strike zone. I'm looking forward to the future even more," Park added.
Not to mention solid defense, which Samsung coach Park Jin-man also recognized. He does not hesitate to engage in unnecessary defense moves, wide range of defense and even hustle play. He also has only one stolen base, and his team's RAA (against average base run score, statistics) ranks second (0.93) in the league. He also has 23 additional bases, the largest number in the league along with Koo Ja-wook.
Lee Jae-hyun is leading Samsung's rise by ranking first in the league's WAR with his ball, water, and main performances that are not revealed by records alone. Lee Jae-hyun is at the center of the reason why Samsung's future is bright.
