Who will inherit the legacy of Hwang Ui-jo (2018–2022) and Jung Woo-young? The 'crazy presence' that Lee Min-seong's team also needs
To achieve results in short-format tournaments or playoffs, there must be so-called 'crazy players.' When a player delivers extraordinary performances, it becomes much easier to reach goals such as winning championships. The emergence of a 'crazy player' is the scenario desired by all coaches and teams across every sport. The same applied to men's football at the Asian Games. Especially in recent editions, players who delivered incredible performances have become major forces on the journey towa
'How could this be?' As soon as Kim Ha-seong was substituted in as a pinch-hitter, it turned out to be an ironic explosion of a two-run home run by Mike Yastrzemski... ATL ultimately suffers its second consecutive loss.
Kim Ha-seong (31, Atlanta Braves) was substituted in before his third at-bat in the later innings after failing to get a hit in a heartbreaking manner. Ironically, the pinch-hitter who entered the game ended up hitting a home run. On the 15th (Korean time), Kim Ha-seong started as the leadoff hitter and shortstop for Atlanta Braves against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois, USA, in an away regular-season Major League Baseball (MLB) game, going hitless in two at-bats.

Robert Moreno, the interim head coach of the South Korean national team, announced the A-match squad for September and October on the 14th at Cheonan Korea Football Park in South Chungcheong Province,
South Korea's Quarterfinal Opponent Jordan Already Nervous: "Completely Different from Group Stage"... Local Media Analyzes National Weaknesses in Detail to Secure Victory
"It is completely different from the group stage." The South Korean Nam Ja-nong-gu (CEO)team will face Jordan in the quarterfinals of the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. While South Korea, riding a wave of momentum with three consecutive wins in the group stage, has drawn attention, local media in Jordan have also expressed caution. They meticulously pointed out their national team's weaknesses and emphasized the need to adapt for the match against South Korea. Led by Latvian coach Nicolas Mazur,
'Just past 100 plate appearances,' they became different players: Doosan-NC fifth-place battle hinges on two foreign batters
"Foreign batters should be observed for about 100 plate appearances." This is a phrase often heard from managers and coaches at KBO League games. It means that newly arrived foreign batters may go through an adaptation period and trial-and-error phase, so their true abilities can only be evaluated after some time has passed. After completing exactly '100 plate appearances,' two players have transformed into completely different hitters: Doosan Bears' Severino (27) and NC Dinos' Blaine (29). Seve
