Will there be a player in the LG Twins who tries to play second fiddle.

LG named Gyeonggi Commercial High School infielder Ryu Hyun-hyun in the second round. However, Jung Sung-joo, a scout for LG who took the microphone in the draft, said his position 'pitcher and infielder' when he called out Yoo Hyun-hyun. The official profile says he is an infielder, but it should be interpreted that LG calls him a pitcher and infielder and puts the pitcher in front of him as a pitcher,

In fact, after the draft, Deputy Chief Jung Sung-joo "Too Hyun hit a maximum of 153 km as a pitcher. "My team members said they wanted to raise me as a pitcher because I had a fast ball, so I chose him as a pitcher in the professional league."

However, he is still an infielder. When asked what position he wanted to play, pitcher or fielder, Yoo Hyun-hyun, whom we met right after the draft, said without hesitation, "I want to be a fielder."

"I always stayed and practiced my defense," said Shin. I swung a lot during winter training"It's the beast that put more effort into it. So I still have more affection for the beast. He also expressed his desire to be a fielder, saying, "I like that he is a player who can play every day." His position as an infielder is third baseman. He is in the same position as Moon Bo-kyung, who is currently playing as the fourth batter.

I thought it wasn't me at first. "I thought it was moving on because I misheard it as a game high school, but I felt a bit there because he said he was a pitcher and infielder. It was really good"I saw this moment, and it was so nice to see that moment."

The pitcher started at the end of his second year. '"Started to benefit the team"In the end of the second grade, he threw an inning each and pitched with a fielder in the third grade," said Kyunghyang-hyun.

How about a double play like Shohei Ohtani. Trendy Hyun sent a positive signal, saying, `I also want to try it once.'

Chung Sung-joo said, "(He is a batter with good batting originally, but he didn't get the timing right this season." This year, he batted 295 with 23 hits, two homers, 13 RBIs and 20 steals in 24 games, and pitched nine innings in eight games as a pitcher, recording 1-1 losses with a 4.00 ERA and eight strikeouts.

If you play as a pinch hitter on a day when you don't take the mound as a mid-game pitch, you may have an interesting picture. To do this, both pitchers and batters must show talent that can work in the profession.
