"I want a home run zone on the left side as well."
KIA Tigers' new foreign hitter Patrick Wisdom showed his greed for a home run. In particular, he was particularly interested in KIA Motors in the outfield stands at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju, his home.
Wisdom played for the first time in a practice game against the LG Twins at Kin Stadium in Okinawa, Japan, on the 27th. The result is no hit in two at-bats. Wisdom, who played as a 4th-1st baseman, hit the ball of opposing starter Yoni Chirinos well in his first at-bat in the bottom of the second inning and went to a hit-by-hit ball in the middle, but was out due to LG shortstop Oh Ji-hwan's good defense. He was also caught by a shortstop in his second at-bat in the bottom of the fourth inning.
He didn't get a hit in the first game, but his interview with Korean reporters was bright all the time. "The feeling was good. I tried to watch the pitcher's pitch at the plate. I think the timing was good"Wizdom was a nice play for his first hit hit to the plate. I hope that doesn't happen during the season," he said with a smile.
He has hit 20 home runs and 88 home runs in the Major League for three consecutive years. KIA broke up with Socrates Brito, who had a career batting average of .320, 63 home runs and 270 RBIs for three years, and signed with Wisdom because of his power.

He was also well aware and hoped that his strength would help the team. Wisdom said "I want to hit a lot of home runs, too. The team is looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to it"I'll try to hit the ball that comes into the zone."
KIA cars are always in the stands on the right side of Champions Field. If you hit a home run to hit the car during the game, KIA Motors will give the model's car as an injury. In the meantime, many batters have received the car, which Socrates has received twice in three years, and previously received Preston Tucker in 2020.
Asked if he knew there was a car home run zone, he said, "I heard from my colleagues. Wizdom says, "I want to get a lot of answers and give them to my family"
However, in order to hit the car, right-handed Wisdom has to push and make a home run. a home run zone favorable to left-handed hitters. "I heard that Wisdom is also made on the left side. I hope you can install it."I told the home run zone that I meant it.
Although he has the burden of being the fourth batter, he is satisfied with having Kim Do-young in front of him and Choi Hyung-woo behind him. Wisdom is "My personal goal is more than 100 RBIs. If I stay behind Kim Do-young, I think it will be helpful because I can make a lot of RBIsI think it's good to have Big Choi (Choi Hyung-woo) behind it. I will make a lot of RBIs in front of Choi Hyung-woo. I think it's a good seat. I'm ready for the fourth batter."
