It was a moment when the hearts of Lee Jung-hoo, the grandson of the wind, and Yoo Je-min, the captain of Hwimungo, heated up at the same time.
Major League Baseball (MLB) San Francisco Giants Lee Jung-hoo delivered MLB practice-oriented training methods, skills and know-how to his alma mater Hwimungo and about 60 baseball players from last year's Cheongryonggi winning team at LG Champions Park in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province on the 7th.
For the event, co-hosted by the U.S. Major League Baseball (MLB) and San Francisco, Lee Jung-hoo, CEO Larry Baer, president of the baseball division Buster Posey, general manager Jack Minasian, manager Tony Bytello, player representative Willie Adames and Hwang Jae-gyun, who played for SFG in 2017, attended.
Lee Jung-hoo, who signed a six-year, $113 million contract in December 2023 and joined San Francisco, is also showing off his presence in the U.S. CEO Baer said, "Lee Jung-hoo has a good influence as an Asian player in Major League Baseball. It is loved by fans so much that there is a separate section of Lee Jung-hoo in Oracle Park in the outfield. In addition, the team's uniform sales rate is No. 1 overall. I feel very grateful to Lee Jung-hoo for that," he said.
Adames, who was recruited together and spent a season together, said, "I received warm love for two days. Korea is a really beautiful country," he said. "The biggest goal was to show our affection for Lee Jung-hoo. "I wanted to show how important he is to us and how big a player he plays," he said.
Lee Jung-hoo, who delivered the uniform to Yoo Jae-min, the captain of Hwimungo, and took a commemorative photo, said, "If they were young players, they would have talked a lot, but high school players are about to go to school, so I want to tell them more about the technical part," adding, "It's been a long time since I met my junior players and the coach from my school days."
