Noh Si-hwan (24) of the Hanwha Eagles played as the fourth batter of the Asian Professional Baseball Championship (APBC) team last year and batted .389. He had no home run, but he had a walk-off hit in the preliminary match against Australia and had multi-hits in the match against Japan. He properly maintained his pride as the home run king of the KBO League by hitting 31 home runs last year.토토사이트

"I think Noh Si-hwan's sharp batting is one of the best among Japanese hitters," Japanese coach Hirokazu Ibata said. Noh was named one of the best nine players in the competition.

At the Hangzhou Asian Games that took place earlier, Noh also showed off his best batting performance with 438. He gave a proper impression as an "international hitter" born in the 2000s.

Premier 12 national team consisting of "young blood" in preparation for the 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) and 2028 LA Olympics. However, there is no Si-hwan Roh on this list.

Noh Si-hwan had a joint warp injury in July, and his hamstring was not good at the end of the season. He showed off his long-range power by hitting 24 home runs this season, but it was difficult to expect 100% of his skills as he was not in his normal physical condition.

The Premier 12 national team, led by head coach Ryu Joong-il, began its first training at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 24th.

There are a total of 28 entrants for the national team, but 35 are listed for the training. Under the current rules, additional entry can be added until the opening game. The committee plans to focus on each player during the postseason and call-up training to confirm the final 28 players.

In the first training session, a total of 23 players trained except for Samsung Lions and KIA Tigers players and injured players who are playing the Korean Series.

Ryu's concern is that he does not see a player who will be the "No. 4 hitter" since he has to keep thinking about the final entry. "I only talked to batting coach Jang Jong-hoon four times over lunch today. I have concerns about the central lineup," Ryu said.

Kang Baek-ho, who was able to play as the fourth batter, also failed to join the team due to basic military training schedule. Koo Ja-wook also has yet to join the team due to knee injury that occurred in the playoffs.

"I'm thinking about selecting additional entries. KIA and Samsung are playing the Korean Series, so there could be additional injuries. There could also be a drop in condition," Ryu said. "I'll think about it because I still have time."
