KIA Tigers' Park Chan-ho skipped batting and defensive training ahead of Game 4 of the Korean Series against the Samsung Lions at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 26th. Instead, I warmed up by sweating through running. Originally, there is a routine of skipping training ahead of the 2 p.m. game, but he said he couldn't sleep until night. It was a decision to control his condition.
I couldn't sleep well. Game 3 was held on the 25th. A full base chance with two outs in the top of the ninth inning when the team was losing 2-4. He hit Samsung closer Kim Jae-yoon's first pitch properly. It flew over the left-wing line. If you fall only inside the foul line, you could expect at least a tie and a reversal. But it's a foul. Park Chan-ho clasped his head. The game ended as it was with a third-base grounder on the slider of the second pitch.
Park Chan-ho, who met ahead of Game 4, said "I couldn't sleep because I was so angry that I thought it was over at the moment I hit " It was the best bet I could make. I feel like the sky has taken Samsung's side," he said, expressing regret.

Still, Park Chan-ho survived the hitless slump in the first and second games and revived with multi-hits in the third games. Park Chan-ho said "Something got twisted as the start of Game 1 was postponed due to rain. He also hit the ball he was aiming for at the first pitch of his first at-bat, and it seems that the ball became a foul and began to shake. I had a plan I thought of, but the first button didn't work well. It was a Korean series that I really wanted to play."
Still, I'm glad I got the hang of it in Game 3. Park Chan-ho said, `I hit a ball aimed at the first two at-bats of Game 3, but it didn't work. It was proof that a lot of power was put in. So in the third at-bat, he relaxed and hit like a mollusc. But when I saw the ball go fast enough, I thought 'This is it'" he said. At the same time, it doesn't matter that I've found a clue. Even if I don't play well, I hope the team wins like the first and second games," he stressed.
