KIA Tigers star Kim Do-young (21) has just one game left. Kim Do-young also failed to hit a home run against the Lotte Giants in Busan on the 28th. Since hitting his 38th home run of the season against the Gwangju Samsung Lions on the 23rd, he has not had a home run in four consecutive games.토토사이트
KIA and Kim Do-young will wrap up the regular season with the game against the Gwangju NC Dinos on Sunday and start preparation for the Korean Series. Kim can succeed 40-40 only when he hits two home runs dramatically in the final game. Even if he plays 40-40 in the final game, he will be able to achieve it in 141 games, one more than 140 games played by Eric Thames (then of the NC Dinos) in 2015. Due to the silence over the game against Lotte, 40-40 minimum games have gone up in smoke.
Moreover, this season, Kim Do-young has only two home run games this year, including the match against the Incheon SSG Landers on April 17 and the match against Suwon KT Wiz on April 16. He is the second batter with the most home runs after Matt Davidson (NC Dinos, 46 home runs) this season, but surprisingly, there are not many multi-homer games.
Kim Do-young boasts the highest batting average among the nine teams with a batting average of 0.434 against NC this season. At this point, it is difficult to know exactly the starting pitcher for NC's game on the 30th, but it is expected that he will not be able to avoid the pressure of the last game.
Even so, who would throw a rock at Kim Do-young? In 140 games this season, he recorded 188 hits in 540 times at bat (third), batting average of 0.348 (third), 38 homers (second), 108 RBIs (eightth), 142 runs (first), 40 steals (sixth), on-base percentage of 0.650 (first), on-base percentage of 0.420 (third), OPS of 1.070 (third), and OPS of 0.314. He has reserved two titles in the official award category. He is the top three in a whopping six categories.
Of course, the team ranks first in the league with 30 mistakes. However, it ranks sixth in defense innings with 1,104 innings, and No. 1 in third baseman position. It ranks first overall throughout the season, but has fallen to sixth due to the high number of designated hitters. In addition, it ranks first in WAR with 8.68 and first in adjusted score productivity with 171.5 based on Statistics Korea, a baseball statistics website. It has reserved regular season MVP and third baseman Golden Glove.
What's surprising about Kim Do-young is that his batting average in September is 0.369. It is the highest monthly batting average after July, when he recorded 0.407. I can't help but be conscious of my home run, but I maintain my high-sensitivity average. In fact, you can consciously take the heating point forward and pull it, but you can't see it well. In fact, you have a very good batting posture, which produces a lot of good pitches in the center. Instead of less leg movement, a strong body swing has been completely established. It is a suitable posture for Kim Do-young, who has very good athletic ability.
Will Kim Do-young make it 40-40 in the final round of the season? If she does, it will be a huge gift to KIA fans. However, she does not have to do it well. She is already the best winner of this season and a proud superstar of Kia and its fans.
