Lee Young-bin, who brought new power to the LG Twins, is showing a certain ability as much as a bat in the first team after being discharged from the military.
Lee Young-bin has a batting average of 429 (12 hits in 28 at-bats) with two home runs and seven RBIs in 18 games in the first team. He also has a good batting average of .333 with two hits in six at-bats.
Lee Young-bin, who hit a home run over the center fence from Jung Hae-young in the KIA Tigers match held in Gwangju on the 3rd, and unfortunately lost his home run due to the misjudgment of the double, hit two home runs in the home game against the Hanwha Eagles in Jamsil on the 8th to inform fans of his skills.
Lee Young-bin, who had a superior three-run shot with two outs and runners on the second and third bases in the bottom of the third inning with Moon Bo-kyung's surprise home steel leading 3-0, hit another two-run shot over the right fence with two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning. He crossed the right pole and was declared a foul at first, but was corrected to a home run by video review, marking his first consecutive home run since his debut.
He made four hits in four at-bats (two home runs) with five RBIs and three runs, leading his team to a 14-3 victory.
Lee Young-bin is an infield prospect who graduated from Sebyeong High School and joined as the seventh-ranked player in the second round of 2021. He joined as a shortstop and drew expectations as a candidate for LG's shortstop to succeed Oh Ji-hwan.
I applied to the managing director to quickly solve the military problem and was discharged from the military in July. However, his performance in Sangmu was not very good. This year, he hit .27 (29 hits in 140 at-bats) with only three home runs and 19 RBIs in Sangmu.
After being discharged from the military, he was briefly in the first team, but soon went back to the second team, and after about 15 days of maintenance, he returned to the first team on August 11. It didn't come up because the batting performance improved a lot. He also had a batting average of only 222 (6 hits in 27 at-bats) and three RBIs in the second division of LG.
However, he is performing better in the first team.
He is currently playing as an outfielder, but he is training defense as an infielder before the game. LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `Lee Young-bin will have an opportunity to play next season as an infield backup with Koo Bon-hyuk.' As Koo Bon-hyuk is virtually confident of backing up alone this season, he felt physical difficulties as he played as much as he was the main player.
Lee Young-bin is given a chance, Hong Chang-ki, Moon Bo-kyung, Moon Sung-joo and Shin Min-jae also started as backup, but they became indispensable players.
