"There will be no stolen bases from today."

KIA Tigers manager Lee Bum-ho ordered Kim Do-young 'no steal order'.

He filled 40 steals, which was his goal. Kim Do-young got on base as the leadoff hitter in the bottom of the fifth inning with his team leading 2-0 against Gwangju Samsung on the 23rd, and succeeded in stealing second base, and homered when Yoon Do-hyun made a timely hit. With this steal, Kim Do-young succeeded in achieving 40 steals for the season. Kim Do-young has 40 home runs and 40 steals, leaving only two home runs left as he recorded his 38th home run of the season in the bottom of the first inning.



"The player himself must have known up to 40 steals," coach Lee said. "I'm going to try not to steal anymore."

Kim Do-young's baserunning ability and speed are unrivalled. Not only when he was a runner on the second base, but also when he was a runner on the first base, he quickly turned around the second and third bases and stepped home. It is not just putting hustle play ahead, but it is also showing the ability to adjust the speed according to the defense situation. Coach Lee also said, `Whether Kim Do-young is at second base or first base, there is little difference in coming home. Friend who comes in easily.



However, considering the fatigue accumulated during the full-time season, stolen bases and baserunning, which require instantaneous speed, are bound to increase the risk of injury. This is also the reason why director Lee's 'Prohibition of Stealers' was issued. Director Lee said, `Kim Do-young is the first full-time year. Friends who have a lot of work to do not only this year, but also next year and the year after next, can stand out in other areas if they are restrained. If you plan your team physically and give it more strength offensively, it will be better for the team." He said, `I'm thinking of preparing for the Korean Series after proceeding with the pennant race schedule, but we have to prepare for any injuries that may arise.'

Of course, it is unclear whether director Lee's 'Dolu Prohibition Ordinance' will be effective. Considering the nature of stealing, which is closer to instinct than operation, Kim Do-young may not just pass the opponent's gap. Manager Lee also expressed his concern, saying, `If the opposing pitcher is not too restrained, he will play instinctively.'



Kim Do-young said, "After successfully stealing 40 times, I want to pick the base like Lee Jong-beom."It has revealed the atmosphere of the half-farm and half-farm." However, after making 40 steals, he continued to play as if something had happened. While achieving the goal, attention is focusing on whether he will show his wishes that he failed to achieve with 'Playing Faithful to Instinct'.
