SSG Hanyu Island excluded from first team due to thigh muscle injury

SG Landers' slugger Han Yu-seom, who is leading the home runs this season, was excluded from the first team entry due to a thigh muscle injury. SSG deleted outfielder Han Yu-seom and pitcher Kim Joo-on from the first-team entry ahead of the 2024 Shinhan Solbank KBO League game against NC Dinos at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 4th. Han Yu-seom was replaced in the game against NC on the 3rd because he felt pain in his left groin while running base after giving up a hit in the 4th inning. As a result of the hospital examination on this day, it was found that there was microscopic damage to the left adductor longus muscle (inner thigh muscle). It is not a serious injury. An SSG official explained, "It is possible to play the game after resting for 4-5 days. However, as there is a lot of season left, we decided that it would be better to play in perfect physical condition, so we decided to cancel it from the entry list," and added, "It is possible to return after 10 days." did. SSG registered outfielder Choi Sang-min and pitcher Song Young-jin as first-team entries. NC's sidearm starting pitcher Lee Jae-hak missed one starting rotation due to strain in his right lat muscle. Jaehak Lee, who felt nervous during the game against the LG Twins on the 30th of last month, felt uncomfortable again during a bullpen pitch the day before, so it was decided to cancel his entry. An NC official said, “Nothing unusual was found during the hospital examination.” According to the original starting rotation, it was Lee Jae-hak's turn to pitch in that day's game. With Lee Jae-hak leaving, right-hander Young-gun Shin Young-woo will take the mound as a replacement starter. Shin Young-woo, who joined NC as the 4th overall pick in the first round in the 2023 rookie draft, will make his first-team debut. Kiwoom Heroes sent veteran infielder Choi Joo-hwan to the second team ahead of the game against KT Wiz held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon. Choi Joo-hwan had a poor batting average of 0.182 in 31 games this season. <br /> <br /> for more info check this : <https://www.betsarang.com>

Korea comes forward even when hurt and broken

he golden generation has passed, and the transition period is still in progress. How much can Korean women's volleyball awaken in a situation where 'transformation' is realistically difficult? The Korean women's volleyball team held training open to the media at the JoongAng Girls' High School gymnasium in Seodaemun-gu on the 1st. The women's volleyball team, led by new coach Fernando Morales, is scheduled to participate in the 2024 Volleyball Nations League (VNL) of the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB), which will be held in the United States, Japan, and Brazil from May 14 to June 16. After the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Korean women's volleyball is suffering from a severe slump due to the absence of veterans such as Kim Yeon-kyung, Kim Su-ji (Heungkuk Life Insurance), and Yang Hyo-jin (Hyundai Engineering & Construction). From 2022 to 2023, when former coach Cesar Hernández González took charge, most of the international competitions ended in defeat. In particular, in the VNL, where world powers such as Japan, Turkiye, and the United States participate, they suffered the humiliation of losing 24 games in two years. 'I lost' came out once in a while, but the result was defeat anyway. Korean men's and women's volleyball, caught up in the issue of high salaries in the league compared to poor international performance, has not been able to avoid criticism for two years. As of the 2nd, the world ranking of Korean women's volleyball was 40th, falling behind Kazakhstan (32nd), Croatia (35th), Peru (38th), and Vietnam (39th). Some even achieved a tough win over Taiwan, ranked 44th, at the Hangzhou Asian Games held last year. To be honest, Korean women's volleyball currently lacks confidence that it can win against any team it faces. Last month, the Korea Volleyball Association appointed new coach Morales, who has experience coaching the Puerto Rican national team, to revamp the atmosphere. He focused entirely on coaching the national team as a full-time manager rather than a concurrent position at the club. Former coach Cesar was criticized once for being late in joining the national team while also serving as a club coach. The sense of security that comes from having a leader observe the training process from the beginning, communicate directly, and lead consistently is definitely different. In an interview after training that day, Jeong Ji-yoon said, "Rather than preparing without the coach, I feel a little more prepared by matching the volleyball style pursued by the coach from the beginning." However, Korean women's volleyball is not yet optimally prepared for the world stage. In fact, it is like resetting the team every time we convene. I'm desperately yearning for one win, but realistically it's not easy considering various situations, including power. When asked about the first game of the day, against China, Coach Morales responded, "The first thing to do is to raise the team's level so that we can play in the VNL." The defense is good, but it lacks the power and flexibility to use it in attack. Coach Morales consistently emphasized, "If the attack is concentrated on the wing attackers, it becomes difficult for the players. We need to diversify our attack options more by using middle blockers and pipes." This is also the diagnosis first made by foreign coaches of men's and women's teams who entered the league. In fact, it was not easy to establish this in the regular league. In addition, the women's volleyball team had a lot of replacements from the start due to injured players. Lee So-young (IBK Industrial Bank), who was originally selected, was replaced by Park Soo-yeon (Heungkuk Life Insurance) due to a ruptured left ankle ligament suffered during the season. Park Soo-yeon is a backup libero who served as a one-point server for the team. Kim Da-eun could barely play in the 23-24 season due to a partial tear of the rotator cuff in her right shoulder joint, and eventually gave up her spot to Moon Ji-yoon (GS Caltex). Two defensive lines were also missing. Kim Yeon-gyeon (Hyundai Engineering & Construction) was replaced by Kim Chae-won (IBK Industrial Bank) due to a left ankle injury. In addition, Moon Jeong-won (Korea Expressway Corporation), who was diagnosed with traumatic arthropathy of the right knee joint, degenerative meniscus and medial meniscus, passed the baton to Han Da-hye (Pepper Savings Bank). Apart from the players who left due to injuries severe enough to prevent them from playing in the game, all of the players have minor injuries. <br /> for more info check this : <https://www.totositerank.com>

Park Hyun-kyung and Lee Yewon made a thrilling comeback

Park Hyun-kyung won 1UP (one hole difference) in the Doosan Match Play (total prize money of 900 million won and 225 million won in prize money) final of the Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour held at Radena Golf Club (par 72/6384 yards) in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province on the 19th. Park Hyun-kyung won all seven games in five days from the group league to the final, showing off her stellar performance to win the title. She achieved her first win of this season and five wins overall in about seven months since winning the SK Networks and Seoul Economic Ladies Classic in October last year. She has also cleared up the disappointment of finishing the runner-up at last year's event. Park advanced to the finals again last year, but lost to Sung Yu-jin and had to settle for the runner-up. However, she won the finals for two consecutive years to lift the trophy. She has also established herself as a match play powerhouse by recording 18 wins, one draw and three losses (81.8 percent) overall in match play. <https://edwardsrailcar.com>

5 scoreless innings KKKK + 4 home runs and 12 points exploded

"Korean Monster" Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha Eagles) threw a perfect pitch. He played the role of an ace who continued his winning streak and broke his losing streak. In an away game against the Samsung Lions at the Daegu Samsung Lions Park on Wednesday, Ryu garnered his third win of the season by allowing no runs on three hits, one walk and four strikeouts in five innings. Out of a total of 80 pitches, Ryu had 56 strikes. He displayed a maximum speed of 149 kilometers in ball speed, and effectively utilized his main weapons such as curves, changeups, and cut fastballs. Ahn Chi-hong (2 runs in the first inning), Moon Hyun-bin, Kim Tae-yeon (2 runs in the second inning), and Jonathan Peraza (3 runs in the third inning) hit home runs to help Ryu hunt for his third win. Hanwha defeated Samsung 12-2 and got out of the mire of four consecutive losses since the match against NC in Daejeon on the 15th. "All the hitters did it today. I didn't do anything," Ryu said after the game. After playing 110 pitches in six innings in a match against NC in Daejeon on Wednesday last week, Ryu took the mound twice a week for the first time since his return. "I always do that in the U.S., so I had no problem at all. I threw 110 pitches on Tuesday (14th), but it was okay," Ryu said. "I heard Daegu Samsung Lions Park is a batter-friendly stadium," he said after keeping the mound until the fifth inning and allowing no run. As the stadium has high preference among batters, the team focused on curbing long-distance shots. The first batter was on base in the first inning, but I am most satisfied with how the team finished the inning quickly." Ryu Hyun-jin, who came into the dugout after handing the mound to Jang Si-hwan in the sixth inning with a significant 12-0 lead, expressed his gratitude, saying, "There is a difference in score and I think the manager and pitching coach have been considerate." "I've been playing well lately, but my balance wasn't balanced," Ryu said, adding that he added more significance to his escape from four consecutive losses than hunting for three wins. "After today, we only have to run." Meanwhile, manager Choi Won-ho said, "Starting pitcher Ryu Hyun-jin pitched like an ace and broke the losing streak." "An Chi-hong's homer was crucial for the batting line-up. After getting on base as the first batter in the top of the first inning, the flow could have been interrupted by a two-out, but An Chi-hong's homer gave us the upper hand and became a springboard for victory," he added. Coach Choi Won-ho then finished the interview, saying, "I also want to praise Kim Tae-yeon, who hit hard including home runs, and I want to say that all the players who won today worked hard." <https://www.sportstotolink.com>

Oh no! I can't watch Son Heungmin's game on TV

Tottenham, where Son Heung-min plays with the captain's armband, will play an away match against Sheffield United in the final 38th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League at Braemar Lane in Sheffield, England, at 0:00 on the 20th. The nine-month journey since the season began in August last year will end on the same day. Son Heung-min, who struggled hard after being appointed captain, can now have some time to clean up. Of course, Tottenham will fly to Melbourne, Australia immediately after the match, and play an afterseason friendly match there on the 22nd, but the turbulent season will end anyway. However, it is known that Tottenham-Sheffield United cannot be seen in England. "Spurs Army" reported on Wednesday that Tottenham's away match against Sheffield, which will take place on the last day of the Premier League, will not be televised in the U.K. "You can't watch it in the U.K." At first glance, it is hard to believe. It is understandable that 380 matches of the Premier League are broadcasted in one season. On the one hand, the value of this game is not great, so it may be considered the most indifferent game in the UK. Tottenham has played 37 games this season, and it is certain that it will rank fifth with 63 points. If Tottenham loses at Sheffield away and Chelsea (60 points) wins a home game against Bournemouth at the same time, the two teams could be reversed due to differences in their rankings, but it is less interesting that Sheffield United is the team that not only relegation but also ranked at the bottom of the table with the worst performance of the season. Sheffield had 16 points and was confirmed to be ranked 20th out of 20 teams regardless of whether they won or lost against Tottenham on the day. The defense was terrible enough to score 35 goals and score 101 goals. Tottenham is sluggish with one win and five losses in the last six games, but Tottenham under the leadership of Son Heung-min is not an opponent to beat. As a result, it seems to have fallen behind in the priority list. On the final day of the Premier League, matches will be held at 10 stadiums at the same time, with matchups such as Arsenal-Everton, Brentford-Newcastle, Brighton-Manchester United, Burnley-Nottingham, Chelsea-Bonmouth, Liverpool-Wolverhampton, Luton Town-Fulham, and Manchester City-West Ham. Other matches are attracting attention due to the competition for the championship, Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp's farewell match, and the relegation zone war. However, the match between Tottenham and Sheffield United can be watched live in Korea.

Hongcheon is also popular!

"It's not even a great player.... Thank you so much." Jung Sung-hoon of Busan All One Bank participated in the NH Nonghyup Bank FIBA 3x3 Hongcheon Challenger 2024 Qualifying Draw held at a special court in Hongcheon Tori Forest City Forest Park in Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon State on the 11th. Chung Sung-hoon, a graduate of Chung-Ang University, is a promising player in Korean basketball as he is a 200-centimeter-tall big man. However, he failed to achieve his dream of becoming a professional in the 2022 KBL Rookie Draft. Since then, Jung Sung-hoon, who worked as a Hana One Q instructor in Bucheon, has recently participated in the "turnover" project being carried out by Ha Seung-jin and Jeon Tae-pung, burning his last passion for his dream of becoming a professional. In this competition, he participated with Ha Seung-yoon, who is also a member of the "turnover." Since Jung has been participating in 3x3 competitions since he was not drafted, there was no awkwardness. However, it was the first time in about a year that he participated in 3x3 competition as an instructor and a "turnover" activity. "I feel like I'm in a 3x3 competition in a year. I got used to it when I was running, but I couldn't get used to it again in a year, so I think I lost a little bit," Jung said. "After naming the program, I had a team (Busan) that played 3x3 with me, so I came out together. I really wanted to come out," he added. Young players shouted "turnover!" to Jung Sung-hoon and Ha Seung-yoon to cheer for them. As such, the popularity of "turnover" seemed to have increased the recognition of players. Jung Sung-hoon said, "We're not even great players…, Thank you so much for your great interest. Now I will walk silently the way I have to go," he said. For Jung, the upcoming 2024 KBL rookie draft is perhaps the last chance to become a professional. That's why he is having a more urgent and meaningful time. "I'm grateful for such a great opportunity. I want to do my best so that I don't have any regrets or regrets about basketball for the rest of my time," Jung said. Meanwhile, Busan failed to advance to the main draw, losing to Japan's Shinagawa and Australia's Non-Awarding. <https://edwardsrailcar.com>

SD wins the all-time pitcher's game against LAD

Kim Ha-sung started the 2024 Major League Dodgers game at Petco Park in San Diego, California, on the 11th (Korea time) and had no hits and no walks in two times at bat. He failed to secure a hit in three consecutive games. That is regrettable. Instead, he has successfully gotten on base in the latest six consecutive games. Of course, he still has more to come. Adding to the performance on the day, Kim Ha-sung recorded 41 games, a batting average of 0.208, five homers and 21 RBIs, a on-base percentage of 0.315 with a slugging percentage of 0.368 and an OPS of 0.683 this season. He struck out in his first at-bat in the bottom of the third inning with his team leading 1-0. In the bottom of the sixth inning, he walked with one out and no runner. He got on base after eight pitches. Luis Arraez's double play failed to advance. It was a shame that the bottom of the ninth inning was a 1-1 tie. The batter's box came back from the second base with no outs made by Luis Campusano's double. He made a sacrifice bunt motion. It was a strike due to the failure of the first-pitch bunt, and it was a two-pitch ball. He was still in a bunting position, and a fastball that was missing from the outside came in for the third time. Of course, Kim Ha-sung won the bat. But the umpire's call is a strike. Kim had deep regret. If he were a left-handed batter, it could have been a hit ball, but it ended up being a strike. He swung and missed the slider for the fourth time and struck out the ball. He kept his anger secret, as he seemed to throw the bat after striking out. Instead, he made one hit in defense. In the top of the eighth inning, Freddie Freeman gave a sacrifice fly, resulting in a tie at 1-1. Max Muncy hit a ground ball with runners at first and second bases with one out. Kim Ha-sung, who caught the ball behind the second baseman, stepped on the second base and threw it to first base. Double play is complete. He made an out by a short margin in the second base and the first base. Kim Ha-sung's momentary judgment was exquisite. San Diego won the game 2-1. Kim Ha-sung struck out in the bottom of the ninth inning, making it one out and second base. Arraez hit a timely hit to end the game. It is natural to say, "You brought the good one." San Diego Padres starter Michael King showed off quality pitching of quality start plus (QS+) with two hits, three walks and 11 strikeouts, no loss, in seven innings. It is fair to say that he showed the best pitching this season. There was no victory. As Yuki Matsui slowed down with one run in one inning, the requirement for victory was lost. Robert Suarez, who came up in the ninth inning, won the game with one scoreless inning. In the batting line, Kampusano produced two hits and one RBI, including a solo home run. Arraez became the main player of the final hit with one hit and one RBI. There were only three hits on the day, and the two hit. Dodgers' starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow allowed one hit, two walks, 10 strikeouts, and one run in seven innings. He has posted four consecutive innings of "more than six innings - less than two runs allowed." His ERA in these four games is 1.29. In the lineup, Freddie Freeman scored one hit and one RBI. Mookie Betts also scored one hit, one walk and one run, and Shohei Ohtani had two hits. Notably, the starting pitchers of both teams made "more than seven innings + less than two hits + more than 10 strikeouts" on the day. This marks the first time in 123 years since 1901. This marks the first time since the era of live ball games (since 1920). This is truly the first time that the Korean baseball team has displayed its best pitching performance ever. <https://www.sportstotolink.com>

Kim Ha-sung's unusual expression of anger over a cool double play

Kim Ha-sung played as the ninth shortstop in the first game of the three consecutive home games against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Petco Park on the 11th (Korea time) and recorded two hits, one walk and two strikeouts in two at-bats. The problem occurred in the last at-bat in the ninth inning with no outs and runners on second base. Leadership Luis Campusano created a chance by hitting a double that fell on the left-field line. With Tyler Wade as the pinch runner, the San Diego bench ordered Kim Ha-sung to bunt. Kim tried to hit right-handed Michael Grove's first pitch in a bunt motion, but failed to hit it, resulting in a swing and miss. He then took the bunt motion on the outer slider for the second ball and picked the ball. When the 95.6-mile sinker hit the same course for the third ball, Kim only took the bunt motion and did not touch it. However, Mike Estabrook's centerpiece declared a strike. Kim Ha-sung expressed his dissatisfaction by jumping out of the batter's box. Even on the slow screen, it was a ball out of the strike zone. Kim Ha-sung even made a gesture that seemed to enter the first base dugout. After returning to the batter's box, Kim lost his temper and struck out with a slider at the center of the 86.8 miles on the fourth pitch of Grove at the count of 1B2S. He stopped almost hitting the bat, looked at the centripetal, and said something before heading into the dugout. He clearly looked angry. Fortunately, San Diego ended the game as its next batter Luis Arraez connected the 93-mile cutter in the middle of the Grove with a full-base hit to bring Wade home. Arraez's first walk-off hit since his transfer gave San Diego a dramatic 2-1 victory. Although frustrating results came out at bat, Kim Ha-sung set up a decisive double play in defense to prevent additional runs. Kim Ha-sung's stellar defense came out in the top of the eighth inning. San Diego's left-hander Yuki Matsui, who took the mound in the eighth inning with a 1-0 lead, tied the game and Michael King's victory was eliminated. The Dodgers had a chance to second and third base with no outs due to the right-handed hit by leading Mookie Betts and a left-center double by Shohei Ohtani. Freddie Freeman then hit a sacrifice fly to left field to bring Betts home to tie the game 1-1. The San Diego bench ordered four intentional pitches to fill the empty first base when the next batter, Will Smith, entered the batter's box. The crisis continued with one out and runners on first and second bases. Matsui threw an 87-mile slider for the fourth pitch at the ball count of 2B1S against the next batter, Max Muncy. Muncy swung his bat vigorously and swung it toward center field. However, Kim Ha-sung, who was waiting behind the left side of the second base, stepped on the base himself, force-out Smith, the first baseman, and quickly threw it to the first base to deal with the batter. Both runners were out by a narrow margin, and they could have asked for a challenge from the Dodgers bench. However, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts gave up the challenge following the team's opinion that both runners were out, and the inning ended as it was. If Kim Ha-sung had been delayed at any one of the catches, base touches, and throws to first base, he would have allowed the reversal or the crisis would have continued. "Both of them were in a tight race, but the Dodgers bench gave up the challenge. It was Kim Ha-sung's great play (What a play by Kim). He stepped on the base himself to get out at second base and out at first base," a local broadcaster said. <https://www.sportstotohot.com>

“Pochettino tough situation, empathy and support”

![](https://files.readme.io/11f0ccc-image.png) “Chelsea deserve to beat every team. I sympathize with Pochettino's difficulties.” Arsenal captain Mikel Arteta has expressed his sympathies for Mauricio Pochettino's crisis-hit Chelsea after the Gunners thrashed the Blues 5-0 on Thursday (KST). The Gunners took advantage of an early first-half opener from Aubameyang and a brace from Ben White and Kai Havertz to cruise to a convincing victory and move back into second place at the top of the table behind Liverpool and Man City. Chelsea, meanwhile, suffered back-to-back defeats in the FA Cup semifinals, losing 1-0 to Man City and then suffering a humiliating defeat to London rivals Arsenal in the league. It was Pochettino's 11th league defeat of the season, again casting a dark cloud over his career. The club slipped further away from the Europa League places and the pressure on his job increased again. Arteta said he sympathized with Pochettino's difficult situation at Chelsea as a “colleague”. “I have all the support in the world for everything he's been through, everything he's doing,” he said, “I've been on the other side, but if you analyze the last six or seven games of this team, they deserved to win all the big games, all the games against big teams, and they deserved to beat all the teams.” “I hope things turn around and he gets what he deserves,” he added, a heartfelt message for his fellow manager in a sobering game. But when asked if his empathy for Pochettino played a part in his enjoyment of the big win over Chelsea, he drew a clear line in the sand. “No, it doesn't. I like to win and I think he would have tried the same to win,” he said. “When you show your support and empathy for someone and you're talking about someone you love and respect, it's clear: I want the best for him,” he emphasized.
