The ridiculous throwing miss of a 20-year-old professional veteran, the game flew away...But it's never easy

Lotte Giants got off to a dismal start in the second half.
Lotte lost the first game of the second half against SSG Landers 4-7 at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 9th.
He tied the game at the top of the eighth inning when it was losing 2-4, creating an atmosphere of reversal, but collapsed by allowing three runs in shock in the bottom of the eighth inning.
If you play the game, you may lose the game, but why was it a shock defeat. This is because the flow was completely over by such a futile error.
Lotte replaced the pitcher from Koo Seung-min to veteran Kim Sang-soo in the eighth inning. Kim Sang-soo started the inning nervously by giving up a straight walk to leadoff hitter Park Sung-han.
SSG needed 1 point in the second half of the game. I ordered Kim Min-sik to make a sacrifice bunt. Kim Min-sik bunt safely. First of all, we had to allow the second base to advance and catch the first base batter.
Pitcher Kim Sang-soo catches the ball and throws it to first base, but what's going on. At a close distance, I made a slow throw and the ball flew in the completely wrong direction. First baseman Na Seung-yeop also made a mistake that no one in the field expected. So the backup play didn't work quickly either. Park Sung-han, who went to second base, came home comfortably, and Kim Min-sik also had enough time to run to third base. Lotte and Kim Sang-soo simply came 'Mental breakdown', and the game ended virtually there.

However, even if a pitcher's throw to first base, bunting, or infield batting defense seems easy to see, it is by no means easy. The pitcher's job is to throw the ball at the catcher at a distance of 18.44 meters. The body is adapted to it. So there are surprisingly many pitchers who find it difficult to throw without losing their strength for a short distance. If you control your strength, but you don't lose your strength properly, throws that easily exceed the first baseman come out frequently. A former pitcher said, `In the past, pitchers used to do a lot of defensive training. Recently, however, young players are only focused on training to throw hard on the mound. The same goes for foreign players. So fewer and fewer players are good at bunt defense" he diagnosed.

The problem is that players who cannot forget these fatal mistakes sometimes experience similar situations IPS. When the bass throwing scene is produced again, you feel afraid. Still, in the case of Kim Sang-soo, he is a player who has been through all the rounds of life, so he is expected to be able to get up well. Usually, inexperienced young players struggle with this 'Ips'.
