  • Suwon Jeiljoong Kim Min-hee "a chance to gain more confidence"

    Suwon Jeiljoong's Kim Min-hee (165 cm, G) talks about her preparations for the Weekend League. 

    The 2024 Korea Basketball Weekend League began on June 15 with the qualifying rounds for each region. While the boys' and girls' divisions are in full swing, the girls' and women's divisions will begin in earnest in July. 

    Suwon First Middle School, which was placed in Group B along with Dongsu Middle School, Ssungu Middle School, and Inseong Middle School, has been training daily in preparation for the weekend league. Captain Kim Min-hee, the only third-year player on the team, is also working hard to prepare for the final weekend league. 

    "We play a lot of practice games before the weekend league. We have joint training sessions with Hwaseocho and Vermalcho, and we are also playing practice matches with our older sisters from Suwon Girls' High School." 

    This year, Suwon First Team has a total of seven players, including one junior, two sophomores, and four freshmen. Despite the small number of players, the team has shown its strength by finishing runner-up at the Spring Federation Games in March and the Federation Championships and Boys' Championships in May. Kim Min-hee won the best player award at the Spring Federation Games and the Federation Championships. 

    "At the (March) Spring Federation Games, we played every single day," Kim said. We lost in the final (49-74 to Sufia Girls' Middle School) because we were physically exhausted. We couldn't finish easy baskets due to lack of stamina, and our defense started to break down. Personally, I was disappointed that I didn't play as much (due to lack of stamina) and that I didn't do more bad things. I didn't go out for the April Federation Championships to prepare for the Boys' Championships," he reflected. 

    "The qualifiers for the (May) Federation Championships were a little easier. We won the semifinals hard (76-52 against Onyang Girls' Middle School), but we had a lot of injuries in that game, so we didn't show our best game in the final. I also had an ankle ligament injury and couldn't play as well as I wanted to," she said, referring to her last presidency of the federation. 

    Kim Min-hee said he is in good shape for training. When asked about his strengths and weaknesses, he 먹튀사이트 said, "I'm confident in my movement without the ball. I'm also active in rebounding for my height. However, I'm not very fast, and I'm working on training to compensate for that and to make my offensive finishing more reliable." 

    She added, "Coach (Lee) Eun-young tells me to be more confident when attacking. On defense, she wants me to put more pressure on my opponent, and she teaches me defensive moves that can cause mistakes against people who are bigger than me." 

    Finally, Kim said, "I have to run around more than other players because I'm not very tall. I will use this weekend's league as an opportunity to gain more confidence. I will try to improve my shooting percentage and be more aggressive to show what I have been working on."


  • 148km lefty wins first win in Game 3 of 4 'Jamsil Rivalry'

    LG Twins pitcher Son Joo-young became the first pitcher to win a game against “Jamsil rival” Doosan since his debut.

    Son started the game against Doosan at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on March 31 and pitched 5⅓ innings, allowing one run on three hits with two walks and one strikeout while striking out four. LG won the game 6-3 and Son was the winning pitcher. 

    Prior to this game, Son had lost two games in two starts against Doosan this year. His career record against Doosan was 3-3 with a 7.71 ERA. In his fourth career meeting with the “Jamsil Rival,” he earned his first win against Doosan.  

    With a 3-0 lead in the third inning, a walk and a bunt put runners on first and second with no outs, and a sacrifice fly put runners on second and third. After allowing just one hit through five innings, Son gave up back-to-back singles to Ramos and Jeong Soo-bin in the sixth to put runners on first and second with no outs. Yang grounded out to first base and turned the ball over to reliever Kim Jin-sung. Kim struck out Yang Seok-hwan and got Kang Seung-ho to ground out to first base to end the threat. 

    After the game, Son spoke about his game plan, saying, “I trusted Dong-won because he's my brother. I lost two games to Doosan, but it was the Jamsil derby, so I had this feeling that I had to win with energy, so I pitched harder and stronger.” 

    Son threw 92 pitches, including 49 fastballs, 19 sliders, 18 curves and six forkballs. His fastball maxed out at 148 mph and averaged 145 mph. He threw his curveball effectively. Son Joo-young said, “I told Dong-won that I wanted him to use a lot of curveballs, and I thought he was going to go for a lot of fastballs and sliders. He didn't throw a lot of curveballs in the first inning, so I analyzed it and threw a lot of curveballs.” 

    “The curveball has been feeling a little bit better in the last 토토 two or three games, so I want to use it a little bit more because I feel like I had a good feel for it last year,” he added. 

    He has 2 losses against Doosan this season. He also has no career wins against Doosan. “I really cared a lot,” Son said. Yesterday, we had our six-game winning streak snapped, so I didn't want to go out there and lose...so I thought I should go out there similarly, and I threw responsibly,” said Son. “I think the Yasoo brothers also care a lot about the Jamsil Derby, so I think they were a little more focused,” he added. 

    He did a good job of shutting down Doosan's top hitter, Yang Ji-hyeon. He faced him three times and retired all three. In the sixth inning, he got a grounder to first base with runners on first and second.  Son Joo-young said, “I was a little late with my fastball, so Dong-won and I were competing with each other with fastballs, so I was a little careful with my fastball. I tried to throw it a little harder to Yang Ji, and I tried to throw it a little more perfectly, and I think it worked out well,” said Son. 

    With the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth inning with a 6-2 lead, things suddenly became tense. “I was a little nervous. I think Young-chan was a little unlucky because his pitches were so good. “I thought it was a hit to the shortstop at the end, but Bon-hyeok caught it well,” said Son. “I thought it was a hit to the shortstop, but Bon-hyeok caught it well.

  • KT manager Lee Kang-cheol "Cuevas wanted to pitch in 7th, but stopped"

    KT WIZ manager Lee Kang-cheol applauded starting pitcher William Cuevas for his performance in Game 4 of the Korean Baseball Playoffs (PO).

    "Cuevas pitched like an ace, as I thought he would, and we were able to win," Lee said after the 11-2 victory in Game 4 of the PO at Changwon NC Park in Gyeongnam, South Korea on Wednesday. "The bats exploded from the first inning and we played comfortably for the playoffs."

    Cuevas credited his slider with helping him bounce back from a Game 1 loss with a six-hit shutout four days later.

    "The angle of the slider was getting bigger, and it was getting the hitters to swing. In Game 1, it was hard, but today he threw (the slider) at 130 miles per hour."

    Cuevas, who threw 73 pitches, mixed in a cut fastball (23), four-seam fastball (19), two-seam fastball (12), changeup (10) and slider (9).

    Asked if he thought about leaving Cuevas in the game in the seventh inning, Lee said, "I ended up with the right (pitch) count because I had to think about it one more time. He said he was going to throw more, but I stopped him."

    The comments were likely made with Game 1 of the Korean Series on July 7 against the LG Twins in mind.

    Lee strategically did not reveal the starting pitcher for Game 5 of the PO on Friday.

    "You don't have to tell me," Lee said, adding, "We'll see how they're feeling."

    He did praise Anthony Alford and 토토사이트 Byung-ho Park for revitalizing their bats, and Hwang Jae-gyun for making up for a fielding error with a home run.

    After going hitless in Games 1-3 of the playoffs, Alford went 2-for-4, while Byung-ho Park, who was just 2-for-12, went 2-for-5.

    "I kept him (in the lineup) so he could get a feel for it," Lee said, adding, "Byung-ho also got a hit in the first inning, so I think both of them are getting better."

    As for Hwang Jae-gyun, he said, "His mood kept dropping because of his mistakes, but he did a good job in the offense and brightened up (again)."


  • 'Another shutout loss' drops from 2nd to 3rd place, coach Kang Sung-hyung

    Hyundai E&C finished the first round in third place.

    Hyundai E&C lost the first round match against GS Caltex in the Dodram 2023-2024 V League Women's Division with a set score of 0-3 (16-25, 20-25, 14-25) at Jangchung Gymnasium on March 3.

    Jung Jeong-yoon, who returned from a right ankle ligament injury, has yet to show his full potential. Kang said, "There is a three-month gap. It's different 메이저사이트 from practicing and playing. We have to adapt gradually. We need to increase our receiving and attacking. In the end, we have to do it on the spot."

    Hyundai E&C is preparing for the second round. Their first opponent in the second round will be Jung Kwanjang on the 9th. Coach Kang said, "We saw problems with our reception in the second game. We will prepare well," said Kang.
