After a base-running mistake against Hong Kong, the umpire made a wrong decision.
“It feels like a triple hit.”
He admits the mistake and pledges to make up for it.
“I feel pressure in the first game… I will definitely win against Taiwan.”
Ji-Hoon Choi (SSG Landers) and Si-Hwan Noh (Hanwha Eagles) of the national baseball team, who made a base-running error in the first game of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games against Hong Kong, admitted their mistake, saying that it seemed like a triple play (triple play) was correct regarding the umpire's decision. 온라인카지노사이트
In addition, they agreed, saying, “I will definitely focus on tomorrow’s game against Taiwan.”
Choi Ji-hoon and Noh Si-hwan made a mistake when attacking in the bottom of the third inning when they were ahead 1-0 in the first game against Hong Kong in Group B of the Hangzhou Asian Games held at the first stadium of Shaoxing Baseball and Softball Sports Center near Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China on the 1st.
Second base runner Choi Ji-hoon and first base runner Noh Si-hwan started running when batter Kang Baek-ho (kt wiz) hit a big ball to the right.
The opposing team's right fielder caught the ball with his body, and Choi Ji-hoon hurriedly attempted to return to second base.
Noh Si-hwan, who had already increased his speed, passed Choi Ji-hoon.
According to baseball regulations, Noh Si-hwan is out.
Hong Kong defenders moved quickly.
He threw the ball to second base and forced out Choi Ji-hoon, then threw it to first base and forced out Noh Si-hwan, seemingly completing a 'triple play'.
However, the umpires overturned the decision after the Korean team protested that Choi Ji-hoon's feet were faster than the opposing team's defense, and ruled Choi Ji-hoon, the runner on second base, safe.
At this time, an incomprehensible decision came out again.
The first base umpire made a decision that went beyond common sense, such as sending second base runner Choi Ji-hoon to first base, but he said he confused Choi Ji-hoon and Noh Si-hwan, so he ruled Choi Ji-hoon out and sent Noh Si-hwan to first base.
This too was a miscarriage.
Choi Ji-hoon, the person involved, said, "I was embarrassed when I saw (Noh) Si-hwan running towards me," and "I was out because I couldn't get to second base quickly.
I think it was a triple play, but it seems like the wrong decision was made."
Noh Si-hwan also said, “I overtook (Choi) Ji-hoon,” and “I don’t think the referee knew.”
The two players explained the situation and pledged to play with more concentration in the next game.
Noh Si-hwan said, "As the game was not going well, I think I played unreasonably with the thought that I had to score somehow.
Tomorrow's match against Taiwan is very important, and I will focus on making sure we can win."
Choi Ji-hoon also reflected, “It is true that (the team) suffered a blow due to the play in the third inning,” and added, “I also performed in a way that I don’t usually do.
I think I felt pressure about the first game.”
He then emphasized, "Fortunately, the atmosphere revived at the end of the game, so we will continue the trend until tomorrow's game."
The national team scored 7 points in the bottom of the 8th inning, leading 3-0 in a chaotic atmosphere, and won a 10-0 cold game.
