Kiwoom Song Seong-moon quits chicken and cola and explodes 9 hits in last 13 at-bats

“I adjusted my diet to increase my batting speed I became lighter and more confident.”

Song Seong-moon hit a home run

Professional baseball Kiwoom Heroes infielder Song Seong-moon (27) made a big decision ahead of the opening of this season.

Song Seong-moon, who joined Kiwoom in 2015, prepared like an agbari for the new season, saying he would show a different side in the 10th year since his debut.

He significantly increased his weight training time and built up his muscles. He also gave up all fried foods, including chicken, which he usually liked, and carbonated drinks such as cola.

It was because I desperately wanted to try anything if I could become good at baseball.

Was it because of thorough self-management?

Song Seong-moon is performing his best since his debut this season.

Song Seong-moon, an ‘ordinary hitter’ who recorded a personal batting average of 0.256 from 2015 to last year, shows a completely different appearance.

Last month, he recorded a monthly batting average of 0.348 in 80 games, and since June, he has literally been showing off his explosive batting skills.

He has recorded 10 hits in 18 at-bats, 2 home runs, 7 RBIs, and 5 runs in the last 4 games, from the visiting game against the LG Twins held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 5th to the home game against the Samsung Lions held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 8th.

In particular, in the game against Samsung on the 8th, he started as the 4th hitter and 3rd baseman and went 3 hits in 4 at bats, with 1 home run and 5 RBIs, including a 3-run home run in the 1st inning, a timely hit to right in the 3rd, and a double in the 5th inning. The season batting average soared to 0.333.

Kiwoom defeated Samsung 10-3 thanks to Song Seong-moon’s performance.

Song Seong-moon, whom we met after the game, said, “The reason I started controlling my diet last winter was to increase my batting speed. I definitely feel lighter.” 파워볼사이트

He explained, “This year, the only time I drank cola was a glass or two,” and “I only ate chicken, which I liked, once or twice when I was under extreme stress.”

He added, “It is difficult to be certain that diet control had a decisive impact on performance, but it is certain that he gained confidence through a series of processes. As he hits with confidence, he seems to hit a lot of long hits, including home runs.”

Song Seong-moon hit his 8th home run of the season on this day, coming close to achieving double-digit home runs for the second time in his career.

The only time Song Seong-moon hit more than 10 home runs in a season was in 2022, when he hit 13 home runs.

At his current pace, he could achieve 20 home runs for the first time in his career.

Song Seong-moon, who recently took over as the number 4 hitter, said, “I’m not a long hitter, so I don’t really have a desire for home runs. I just want to faithfully fulfill my assigned role and help the team win.

He expressed his gratitude, saying, “The reason my personal performance was able to improve so much was because I was surrounded by excellent hitters such as Lee Joo-hyung, Ronnie Dawson, and Kim Hye-seong, so I was not under intense control. I think I am seeing a synergy effect thanks to my excellent teammates.” expressed. 한국야동
