‘This is how I get love’… A ‘nuclear insider’ outsider who goes up to the chair and serves fans
After the match between Kiwoom Heroes and LG Twins in the ‘2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League’ held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul on the 1st, most fans and players left the ground.메이저놀이터
LG Austin was belatedly leaving with its equipment. Austin, who was leaving with two bats full of hands, a helmet, and a lot of equipment including gloves, suddenly stopped and looked at the crowd.
In the stands, an Elin (a young LG Twins fan) remained cheering until the end, calling out Austin’s name. Spotting the child fan, Austin stopped on his way and approached the child, presenting the bat in his left hand. However, the height of the ground and center stands made it difficult for a child fan to grab a bat. Then Austin ran to the dugout, picked up a chair, stepped on the chair, and presented the bat. The child fan who received the bat as a gift had a smile on his face and shouted ‘thank you’ over and over again. Austin also left the stadium waving to the child fan all the way.
Austin presented a child fan with more than one unforgettable memory for a lifetime like this, and this child will later become an adult and after marriage, he will be able to visit the baseball field with his children, support LG, and talk about the memories of the day.
On the other hand, ‘Hyoja Foreigner’ Austin is a player who erased the dark history of the dreaded foreign player from LG. As of the 9th, he has a batting average of 0.297 (105 hits in 354 at-bats), 13 home runs, 66 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.826 and a WAR of 3.28, and is playing a perfect role in the 4th batter’s position.
At the current pace, it is possible for LG to become the first RBI leader. In the history of the KBO league, the titles LG players have never been able to win are the home run king and the RBI king. Austin is currently tied for first place in RBIs with Hanwha Noh Si-hwan, so he can aim for the RBI title.
The player LG initially recruited before the season was Almonte, not Austin. However, he unexpectedly found a problem in the medical test and terminated the contract with Almonte, and belatedly recruited Austin. It was a player who was recruited after twists and turns, but LG’s recruitment of Austin was truly a godsend.
Austin is a player who is helping LG lead the way and move toward the team’s long-cherished business, winning.
