Kiwoom Heroes foreign hitter Cardinez played his first live batting training session at the team's spring camp training ground in Mesa, Arizona on the 6th (local time).
Cardinez, who has been training batting against pitching machines and bullpen pitchers, coordinated his sense of practice by facing balls thrown by Kiwoom's real pitchers such as Joo Seung-woo, Lee Kang-joon and Son Hyun-ki.
Cardinez focused on checking his timing and balance by watching as many balls as possible. It is evaluated that he showed stable batting based on accurate contact ability. Teammate and another foreign hitter Yasiel Puig also played live batting with Kadinez.

"It was nice to see the pitchers' balls for the first time in a long time," Kadinez said. It was my first live batting since recovering from my injury, so I focused on getting the ball right"I'm in perfect shape at the moment. I will prepare well for the season while maintaining a healthy body"The present condition was reported.
Cardinez played for the Samsung Lions last year. Samsung replaced David McKinnon, signing Kadinez as a replacement. At the time, the registered name was Cardenas.

Since then, Samsung has once again replaced a foreign hitter, and Cardinez seemed to leave Korea leaving only controversy over his injury.
But Kiwoom reached out. As Kiwoom chose the unconventional choice of two foreign batters and one foreign pitcher, both Puig and Cardinez became possessed. His physical condition is perfect at the moment. An official from the Kiwoom team also "There is no problem at all right now. The side that was inflamed at the time is fine now," he said.
Expectations are high whether Cardinez, who is healthy without injury, will be able to show the destructive power he showed at Samsung last year once again.
