[Taipei (Taiwan) = Reporter Park Sang-kyung of Sports Chosun] 'Ryu Joong-il-ho Crown Prince'Yoon Dong-hee (Lotte) took the 4th important role.

Ryu Joong-il, the head coach of the national baseball team, formed the starting lineup of Hong Chang-ki (left wing), Song Sung-moon (second baseman), Kim Do-young (third baseman), Yoon Dong-hee (right wing), Park Dong-won (fourth baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (first baseman), Kim Hwi-jip (designated hitter), Lee Joo-hyung (middle fielder), and Kim Joo-won (striker) in the first Group B match of the 2024 WBSC Premier 12 against Taiwan at Taipei Dome on the 13th (Korea time). The starting pitcher is Ko Young-pyo.

Yoon Dong-hee was called after Ryu Joong-il took office as the head coach of the national baseball team.



It started when he was selected last time due to the replacement of entries at the Hangzhou Asian Games last year. He is an outfielder in his second year since his debut, but there were a lot of question marks. However, Yoon Dong-hee hit a hit in the Asian Games foreground and played a leading role in winning the gold medal with a batting average of 4.35 and one home run and six RBIs. Whenever Yoon Dong-hee's story comes out, director Ryu even says "What if I hadn't picked him?" At the APBC (Asian Professional Baseball Championship) held in November of that year, Yoon Dong-hee also clearly hit a batting average of more than 300.

His performance in the national team led to his levelling up in his team.

Yoon Dong-hee posted a batting average of 293 in 141 games this season, 14 homers and 85 RBIs, and an on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) of 0.829. In terms of batting, he used the top-ranked performance among the center field of the 10 teams, and was evaluated as having improved his ability to play in defense. Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung, who is known to have a picky eye for players, pointed to Yoon Dong-hee, saying, `When it comes to talent, there are few players who are as good as Yoon Dong-hee at that age. I wonder how far it will grow.

The national flag is a glorious and difficult road. He faces an unfamiliar pitcher who he has not met in the KBO League, and a distinctly different strike zone adds to the stress. However, there are batters who excel in every international competition. Yoon Dong-hee, who proved his performance every time he wore the national flag, was just that kind of player.
