Frozen
The national team's dugout became ice when KIA Dale's professional ball hit Kim Taek-yeon's glove.


The Korean national baseball team, 10 days before the WBC, is experiencing blood drying every day due to injury concerns.

The national team beat the KIA Tigers 6-3 in the fourth practice game of the 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) held at Kadena Baseball Stadium in Kadena, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan on the 24th.

Closer Kim Taek-yeon, who returned, took the mound in the top of the fifth inning and played one inning.

Kim Taek-yeon, who struck out KIA Park Jung-woo, was hit by a ball hit by Jarryd Dale with one out. Kim Kwang-sam, the national team's pitching coach, was surprised by this scene and headed to the mound

Kim Taek-yeon sent coach Kim Kwang-sam back to the dugout as if it was no big deal, but it was a moment to sweep everyone's chest.
