NC Dinos players, who played practice games with Major League Baseball (MLB) clubs, improved their sense of practice through the Cheongbaek match. In particular, the lineup hit three home runs and showed off a strong sense of hitting.

NC held a match between Blue and White at Tucson Enex Field in Arizona on the 21st (Korea Standard Time). There were players who stood out in the white team's 9-4 game.

Shin Min-hyuk of the Blue team and Won Jong-hae (21) of the White team took the mound as starters. Baek team starter Won Jong-hae also pitched a stable pitch against Shin Min-hyuk, who is considered to be the most advanced among the five starting candidates, with three hits and one strikeout in two innings.

Won Jong-hae, a right-handed pitcher who joined NC as the 65th pick in the seventh round in the 2024 rookie draft, is a rising star who has yet to make his first-team debut. In 2024, he pitched in 10 games in the Futures League and recorded an ERA of 1.95 with one win, two losses and one hold, and slowed down to 1-1 ERA of 8.26 in nine games last year.

However, he joined the camp with high expectations and became the MVP of the game with good pitching on the day, raising expectations for the new season.

According to the club, Won Jong-hae said, "I boldly tried what I had been practicing in CAMP 2, which led to good results. I did a lot of checks mainly on breaking balls, including changeups, and I think the part where I tried to throw the slider on my body with a high-rising feeling worked well, he said. "The goal of this season is to finish in good health without getting hurt above all else. As the opportunity in the N team (first team) can also be obtained only when health comes first, we are preparing for the season by paying the most attention to that part."

Oh Young-soo (26) and Park Si-won (25), who led the white team's victory, shone in the lineup. Both hit solo home runs, raising the atmosphere of the batters with two hits and two RBIs in four at-bats and two hits and two RBIs in three at-bats, respectively. The two were named MVP of the batting lineup. Chun Jae-hwan (32) also stood out with two hits, one walk and one RBI from three times at bat.

Park Si-won said, "I'm really happy and grateful to be selected as MVP. In the first and second at-bats, there was a little hesitation on my own, but I think I was able to lead to a good result thanks to the coach and coach telling me to swing confidently in the last at-bat. It helped that I tried to swing boldly in time rather than being too conscious of the ball. I haven't been perfect lately as I've been playing, but I think it's meaningful because I think I got a good feeling again through my last at-bat today. I will try to maintain this sense well so that I can show better performances in the future," he said.

"I think the biggest goal during the camp is to keep in good condition without getting hurt," he said. "I want to continue my good feeling and become a helpful player for the team in the season." I will do my best to show better performances in the future," he said.

Chun Jae-hwan, who took off as the mainstay last season, said, "The coach praised the part where he slid the ball out of the defensive situation during the game to prevent the runner's additional advance. As I practice repeatedly, the results are getting better little by little, and the overall physical condition is gradually increasing, he said. "I want to show consistent performance without being shaken under any circumstances this season. As much as we have prepared hard, our goal this season is to show the results on the ground," he said.

The game was played until the 8th inning by alternating innings according to the number of pitches so that pitchers could not overdo it. Matt Davidson hit a three-run home run on the blue team.

While most clubs plan to gather in Okinawa and Miyazaki, Japan, to coordinate their sense of practice through practice games, NC remains in Arizona. There is no right opponent to play practice games, but it will be a good opportunity to recruit Major League Baseball (MLB) clubs. It plans to play the San Diego Padres in Peoria, Arizona, on the 28th, and face the Los Angeles Dodgers, who won their second consecutive World Series title at the same place on the 3rd after facing the Chicago White Sox in Glendale on March 1.
