‘Living Legend’ Choi Jung (38) is the way to go. Choi Jung -jung, who opened the KBO League 500 home run, built the first 1500 points of Geumja Tower. He is writing his history, leaving his footsteps.

SSG lost the defeat the previous day through Suwon KT 5-3 victory on the 20th. Not only did he succeed in escaping the second consecutive defeat, but also ranked third (56 wins, 4 draws and 53 losses, 0.514). Lotte’s win rate is 0.001. Choi Jung -jung started the game as a third baseman in the 3rd game and made a big success with two hits and two goals.

This season, Choi has been in 71 games and marked 0.255, 14 homers and 43 RBIs, 0.345 on -base, 0.426 and OPS 0.771. Since his debut in 2005, he has spent the so -called ‘worst season’, but in the second half, he shot a signal of rebound, and he has been struggling to win the team with a batting average of 0.324 in recent 10 games.

The most eye -catching thing is that Choi has scored only in one team for 21 seasons after scoring his first goal in the Literature Hyundai War on May 21, 2005. Although he has never scored the most score title in the season, he ranked in the top 10 in the season 10 times, ranking second with 85 points in 2012.

On September 6, 2023, Daejeon Hanwha Exhibition exceeded 1355 points of Lee Seung -yeop (former Samsung), the largest record of the previous record, ranking first in the individual scores. Since then, he has been leading the first place for almost two years, and he has stepped up to the first 1500 points in this game.

The best record was written in a row, but I was dumb. Choi Jung -jung, who met with the reporters after the game, said, “I was not consciously conscious.” “It seems that the team members can come in anyway.

“Thanks to the team members,” he said, “I did not do it well, but I was able to come in because the teammates hit me.”

The best multi -goal scoring has a huge impact on the team’s odds. In the match that Choi scored more than two goals, the team’s win rate is 80 %. On the contrary, in the game, it was greatly lowered to 40 %. Choi Jung said, “I think I should do well in the end,” he said. “I have to keep connecting.

He also prioritized the team over his personal records. “It’s not a time to worry about personal records,” he said.

The history of the best record is still ‘current progress’, over 1500 points. sshong@sportsseoul.com
