LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop is a manager who emphasizes the role of coaches. In each situation, coaches say that players should be informed about the play that suits the situation. Of course, even if the players know it, they can forget it if they focus on the game, so coaches have to input it from the side.
The fact that Park Hae-min, the third baseman in the Gocheok Kiwoom Heroes match, suddenly stopped when the ball was caught by pitcher Joo Seung-woo while jumping home during Shin Min-jae's squeeze bunt on the 2nd was also seen as a mistake that the coaches failed to inform rather than Park's fault. At the time, Park Hae-min was running home with one out and third base in the top of the eighth inning with a 2-1 lead, and stopped when Shin Min-jae's bunt was about to be caught by Joo Seung-woo, and when Joo Seung-woo missed it, he ran home again, but was eventually tagged out by Joo Seung-woo's toss that caught the ball. If he had continued to run home without stopping, he would have been comfortably safe, which was a great disappointment. After that, he gave up three points to Kiwoom in the bottom of the eighth inning, and LG suffered a come-from-behind loss of 2-4.
Coach Yeom said, `At that time, one point was most needed, and considering that third baseman Hae-min was artificial turf, I decided that Shin Min-jae had a more than 70% scoring success rate if he did a safety squeeze, but it got twisted"It was regrettable that the atmosphere changed without making that one point."
Coach Yeom said, `A squeeze is 100% the same as a squeeze or a safety squeeze. If a runner jumps into the home, don't stop, and even if he's out, he should be out at home"This is the part that the running coaches always tell us even when training for the base run during the off-season training." "Even if the timing is late, the reason why we have to watch the game at home is that the pitcher who catches the ball is likely to be safe because there is a less than 30% chance that the throw will come exactly," he said.
Manager Yeom said "Haemin was slow, so I think he would be out if he just went to the pitcher when the ball went to the pitcher, so I think he was trying to save Shin Min-jae as second base because he was threatened."This is the detail after all. If the running coach had told Hae-min to play home unconditionally, Park Hae-min would have played home without stopping" When asked if veterans like Park Hae-min knew about it, Yeom said, `It doesn't matter if it's a veteran or a rookie. A coach should parrot any player"
Coach Yeom once again emphasized that the coach should try to explain the play accurately and make the players play according to the situation, saying, `Details have 80% influence on coaching staff after all.'
