INHA UNIVERSITY VS CK MONSTERS
INHA UNIVERSITY BASEBALL TEAM
WON'T BE EASY
I’LL SHOW YOU
HOW FIERCE UNIVERSITY BASEBALL CAN BE
I'M CONFIDENT
I BELIEVE THAT VICTORY IS ON OUR SIDE
KIM SUN-WOO IS BACK
AFTER AN 8-YEAR HIATUS
It's Kim Sun-woo.
You can throw 150km/h.
LET'S GO COORS FIELD SHUTOUT
FIRST PITCH AFTER 8 YEARS
STRIKE
SPEED 133KM/H
THAT'S GREAT
Kim Sun-woo puts on
a different face on the mound.
INHA UNIVERSITY BATTERS
ATTACK FROM THE START
It flies down the center.
The trajectory is vague.
NOT AN EASY OPPONENT
WHY DO THEY KEEP HAVING WEIRD HITS?
THEY MIGHT LOSE POINTS
IN THE 1ST INNING
-A ground ball.
-He hits.
The ball falls close
to the center fielder.
INHA UNIVERSITY 1 : 0 MONSTERS
TRIUMPHANT
INHA UNIVERSITY SCORES FIRST
He induces a ground ball.
The shortstop catches.
The second base, the first.
Safe on first base.
LOSING AN EXTRA POINT
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 0 MONSTERS
No.
ACE PITCHER IM JUN-SEO
STRIKE
He swung his bat. Strikeout.
STRIKEOUT LOOKING
STRIKEOUT LOOKING
THE MONSTERS' BATTERS ARE
COMPLETELY TIED UP
NICE, JUN-SEO
He has good control.
WE'VE NEVER HAD THREE STRIKEOUTS
WE WON'T LOSE ANY MORE POINTS
Let's go, major leaguer.
STRIKE
SUN-WOO GOT THE FIRST STRIKEOUT
The count is favorable to Sun-woo.
What will he choose?
Let's go.
STRIKEOUT
TWO STRIKEOUTS BACK TO BACK
NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME HAS PASSED
SUN-WOO'S PITCHING IS STILL POWERFUL
If he throws like this,
unlike in the first inning,
Manager Lee will have a lot on his mind.
Right.
Only one out left in this inning.
ONLY ONE OUT COUNT LEFT
Batter nine, Ko Myeong-gyu.
Ko Myeong-gyu, let's hit it!
You have to make it out!
KO MYEONG-GYU: RUNS FAST
AND MAKES GOOD CONTACTS
You have to make contact!
WE CAN'T HAVE A 1-2-3 INNING!
Pay back the three strikeouts.
-It's coming.
-The pitch is coming.
-It's a fastball.
-Come into contact.
-Nice!
-First pitch skips off. A foul.
They're just sticking to hitting the ball.
One more point. Make it out!
It dropped well, but it hit the bat.
-Strike.
-Another strike on the outside.
-Strike.
-Another strike on the outside.
THAT WAS WILD, KIM SUN-WOO!
Sun-woo came prepared.
He's throwing at 133, 134, 135km/h.
Yes, exactly.
-That's tough.
-It's insane.
It's crazy. He got up to 136km/h.
If he does that now,
what about during his career?
He must've been fantastic.
He seems completely different
when he's on the mound
unlike when he's broadcasting.
He's just like his playing days.
He's serious, he takes the sign.
I'm 47 right now,
and I spent three tough months
preparing for this.
I just want my fans to know
that I was on the mound
throwing like Kim Sun-woo.
That's all I want to show them.
That's my goal.
Two strikes, the count is for the pitcher.
ONE MORE STRIKE, THE INNING ENDS
Let's go for a strikeout. Strikeout.
You have to make it out!
-Kim Sun-woo's pitch. What's his choice?
-Strikeout!
-It's nice.
-He hits.
It's high. Left fielder waits for it.
He catches it.
-It's a 1-2-3 inning.
-Nice ball!
-That was the starter Kim Sun-woo.
-Major leaguer.
-Nice ball!
-Great job.
Nice play!
-Very nice.
-Great.
-Good job.
-Well done.
-Well done.
-You still got it.
-Great job.
-Major leaguer.
-Nice.
-You got the balance.
YOU OKAY? ONE MORE?
Yes.
Good job.
If it goes in toward the batter,
it'd be strikeout looking.
But it won't go in because I'm tired.
Well done.
You lead well.
FORM IS TEMPORARY
BUT CLASS IS PERMANENT
He's good. That was diabolic pitching.
-That was diabolic.
-Great movement.
My gosh. How did it drop like that?
I think you need to stay here.
No. Anyway,
he should pitch
even if it's not every game.
He's really good.
SONG JAE-U, PERMANENT COMMENTATOR(?)
Jun-seo, get the first batter.
IM JUN-SEO IS STILL PITCHING
Very good.
Good. He won't be able to run.
You sure are the top.
Park Chan-hui's pop time
is extremely fast.
It's 1,7 seconds.
That's…
Usually, the average pop time is
about two seconds.
You can say it's top class
if it's 1,7 seconds.
-Exactly.
-Yes.
Is he the one who is better than Jun-h*?
I'm surprised.
He's so-so.
JEALOUS
(RIGHT?)
-He overdoes it.
-Yes.
CATCHERS
A runner should get on base.
Then the truth will be revealed.
It's the bottom of the second inning.
CK Monsters will be at bat.
They're still losing at two to nothing.
Jung Eui-yoon will bat first.
He has the number one batting average
among the regular batters.
Number one on-base percentage as well.
But this fourth batter
hasn't had a home run.
Half of the home runs Eui-yoon had
when he played in KBO
were made here in the Landers Field.
Right.
I would dare say that
he'll have his first A Clean Sweep
home run here.
That's my prediction.
Let's go! Home ground!
All right! Batter four, come on!
Seo-won, move up!
RIGHT FIELDER
OUTFIELDERS MOVE UP TO PLAY DEFENSE
We'll hear a foghorn.
FOUL
-He throws it from top to bottom.
-He's fast.
Let's catch up.
WE NEED TO SCORE NOW
There are a lot of ba*ls. Take it slow.
FOUL
JUN-SEO'S ba*ls ARE HARD TO HIT
That was a nice one.
Jun-seo, they're surprised
by your curveballs.
Throw less when you're pitching well.
Let's make sure to finish.
WILL HE THROW A STRIKEOUT
4 TIMES IN A ROW?
-Ball.
-Hey.
(ISN'T IT A STRIKEOUT?)
JEEZ!
-Hey.
-What was that?
-Hit it!
-What are you doing?
Catcher Park Chan-hui thought
it was a strikeout looking
and tried to throw to first base.
Chan-hui!
Are you serious?
-He's nodding.
-Yes.
He thinks we're easy.
-Okay.
-It's a ground ball.
Shortstop Hwang Seong-h* catches it
and throws it to first base.
He threw lightly. It's one out.
Not even one CK Monsters runner
has gotten on base.
Right.
Pitcher Im Jun-seo struck out
all three batters in the first inning.
Now batter five Lee Taek-keun is at bat.
-Let's go!
-Batter five!
End it quickly.
He swings at a curveball!
It was another curveball.
It's tricky.
I haven't seen someone throw a curveball
as the first pitch in a while.
They can't catch up.
Let's get on base!
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 0 MONSTERS
WHAT WILL HE THROW THIS TIME?
-Strike!
-It went deep close to the batter
into the strike zone.
Jun-seo, that close one was nice!
I CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE PATTERN…
Chan-hui, go for the finish!
What will pitcher Im Jun-seo throw?
CATCHER SITS
CLOSE TO THE BATTER AGAIN
Another one close to the batter!
DELETES THE BATTER WITH 3 PITCHES
Strikeout looking!
Four strikeouts. Now it's two outs.
Nice ball!
How will they
break the pitch combinations?
Batter six Ryu Hyun-in is at bat.
Let's go, Hyun-in! Show them!
I NEED A HIT
THAT'LL CHANGE THE ATMOSPHERE
RELAXED
FOUL
It skips off the bat. It's a foul.
There are too many pitches
he's choosing as the first pitch.
Curveball, fastball,
and other breaking ba*ls.
Pitcher Im Jun-seo has great control,
so he's able to throw
what he wants freely.
FIRST PITCH FASTBALL
HE CAN THROW ANY PITCH AT WILL
FOUL
He barely hits the breaking ball.
If he's this good,
how good will the number one
left-handed pitcher be?
MUST SCORE
BEFORE THE ACE PITCHER PLAYS
Two strikes.
The count is favorable to the pitcher.
A high ball.
A high ball. It's a strikeout.
Out of six outs, five were strikeouts.
That was the starting pitcher Im Jun-seo.
NOT EVEN ONE RUNNER GOT ON BASE
IN THE 2ND INNING
It's five strikeouts.
It's five strikeouts now.
After one rotation…
After one rotation, I'm going to k*ll him.
ONE TIME!
Let's play defense.
Jeez, he can throw.
He has good pitch combinations
and great control.
Right. He's too good.
Sun-woo is throwing again.
Until the third inning.
Kim Sun-woo is on the mound again
in the third inning.
Before the game,
we thought he'd throw two innings.
He's on the mound in the third inning.
He threw 34 pitches
until the second inning.
The strike-to-ball ratio is really good.
Let's cover bases!
CAN HE DEFEND THE 3RD INNING TOO?
Batter one Jung Hyeon-seung is at bat.
We need extra points.
Eight points left.
He's back after a 3,076-day hiatus.
Kim Sun-woo is on the mound
in the third inning.
He's 46 years old.
He swings sharply.
First baseman catches it!
DONG-WOOK DIVES TO CATCH IT
MAKING A DASH
Dong-wook goes to base himself.
NICE
-That's our defense fairy.
-Nice!
Dong-wook is good. Nice play.
-Another amazing first base defense.
-Nice.
-It was first baseman Seo Dong-wook.
-Good job.
That scared me.
A good defense is a pitcher's best friend,
-isn't it?
-Yes.
It was a sharp hit.
But Seo Dong-wook dove to make it an out.
He's a 46-year-old pitcher.
Covering first base
makes him go out of breath.
Batter two Kim Seo-won is at bat.
They're going to gain momentum.
You have to get on base.
Keep it going.
-It's up.
-It's high up in the infield.
-There! Three!
-Foul!
-Third baseman.
-Okay.
-Three.
-Third baseman.
He catches it on the mound.
Two outs.
-Sun-woo, come on!
-Okay!
SUN-WOO, GOOD PITCH!
None of the seven hits were valid.
-Good job.
-Nice.
WE NEED ONE MORE
Sun-woo can join us as a pitcher.
Soo-chang can be the commentator.
LAUGHING
A trade?
You're playing too easily
except for the first inning.
They'll chase us later.
Batter three Kim Cheong-yong is at bat.
When he was first at bat,
he had a great hit
that fell right in front
of the center fielder.
Sun-woo had 1-2-3 inning
for seven batters consecutively.
WITH ONE OUT,
IT'S BACK-TO-BACK 1-2-3 INNING
LET'S GO SUN-WOO
HE HITS!
He hits. To the left.
JEEZ…
He hits. To the left.
It falls inside the line.
-Two!
-Nice!
He allows a good hit
for the first time today.
-Okay.
-The runner gets on second base.
Keep going.
We can score a point with a hit.
(SUBSTITUTION?)
NODDING
Manager Lee is heading to the mound.
Timeout.
I was bad.
Your pitch combination was good.
-I wasn't good.
-I should've put my mitt low.
No, you were perfect.
-Sun-woo.
-Nice.
-Good job.
-Let's turn the tables around.
-Let's turn the tables around.
-Won-sam, let's go.
-Well done.
-Good job.
-Starter Kim Sun-woo.
-Well done.
-Good job.
-It was 3,076 days.
He pitched after an eight-year hiatus.
He finished his duty for today.
-Kim Sun-woo!
-Kim Sun-woo!
-Kim Sun-woo!
-He pitched for his fans.
He pitched for those baseball fans
who remembered him.
Kim Sun-woo's pitching ends here today.
-You did better than I expected.
-Okay.
-Better than expected.
-Well done.
-Nice.
-You're the best.
The general manager
may want to talk to you.
Have a talk.
I couldn't throw until the end.
I was too greedy.
-You were.
-I got too excited.
Nice play.
It's good to hear
people shout "Kim Sun-woo."
It is. Yes.
It felt really good.
But I was too greedy in the end.
SAD
Honestly, you did better than I expected.
It feels like hiking, right?
-You prepared so much.
-I did.
Hasn't it been seven years?
-No, eight years.
-Eight years?
Now, Jang Won-sam will pitch.
-You look good.
-Sun-woo was good.
FEELING PRESSURE
It's fall.
THE MAN WHO SAID
HE'D SHOW THEM IN THE FALL
The speed of 123km/h won't be enough.
Don't worry about speed.
-It's about control.
-Okay.
WILL HE SHOW
WHAT HE'S GOT IN THE FALL?
It's a new pitcher.
Go after the first pitch.
Go after the first pitch.
Batter four Park Min-hyeong is at bat.
Let's go, Min-hyeong!
He's the fourth batter.
He's good at making contact.
When Won-sam had good elbows,
he threw very tricky outside sliders
for left-handed batters.
Right.
THE FIRST PITCH IS IMPORTANT
Go low.
The first pitch goes outside. It's a ball.
WON-SAM CAN'T CONTROL THE BALL
-Won-sam!
-Make it hard!
Jang Won-sam.
Outside. It's slightly off.
-Two ba*ls.
-Jeez.
WASN'T THAT A STRIKE?
There are a lot of ba*ls.
Watch carefully!
3 ba*ls
The third pitch is high too.
Neither high nor low ba*ls work.
Three ba*ls.
Keep it up. Keep it going!
Jun-h*, he'll hit. Get ready.
He's facing batter Park Min-hyeong.
It's three ba*ls. What will he throw?
It's off. Four ba*ls straight.
THIS IS BAD…
The runner whom Sun-woo
pitched for remains on second base.
Two outs.
Runners on first and second bases.
WITH A LONG HIT,
INHA CAN SCORE 2 POINTS
Anyway, he's one of the cleanup trio.
Although it's two outs,
it's dangerous to have runners on bases.
Batter five, shortstop
-Hwang Seong-h* is at bat.
-Hit one.
He has power,
so Won-sam needs to pay attention.
I CAN'T LET THEM SCORE
ANY MORE POINTS
2 OUTS
WON-SAM, JUST ONE PLEASE…
-Strike.
-The first pitch is a strike.
WON-SAM FINALLY GOT CONTROL
Nice ball.
-Good.
-Nice.
Be bold!
His slider is super fast.
Let's hit it.
Min-hyeong, to the home plate!
-It's in.
-Hey.
Won-sam threw two strikes.
-It was full.
-Won-sam is left-handed,
but he used to throw really good ones
against right-handed batters.
Right. Won-sam needs to use
the count that's favorable to him.
Just push it.
Catcher Yoon Jun-h*
pointed one finger at the pitcher.
It goes in close to the batter!
A PRECISE STRIKE CLOSE TO THE BATTER
A strikeout. The inning is over.
Jeez.
GOOD
Nice job.
-Strikeout.
-It's 130km/h.
Pitcher Jang Won-sam
kept the score at two to nothing.
A cold wind is blowing.
-Fall wind is blowing.
-Come on.
-You reached 130km/h.
-Nice.
-You reached 130km/h.
-How long has it been?
-You'll play one more inning.
-Okay.
Now I'm getting warmed up.
MAN OF AUTUMN
Wait.
The form was fine though.
Nice one.
What are the batters doing today?
-Don't let them catch it.
-Let's go.
Hit it far.
-Don't let them catch it.
-Let's go.
WE NEED TO CATCH UP
It's the bottom of the third inning.
CK Monsters will be at bat.
Im Jun-seo is still on the mound.
Yes. He has great pitching combos.
-He has very stable control.
-Yes.
All six batters had no valid hits.
Five of them were struck out.
The Monsters shouldn't be
losing for this long.
Dong-wook, let's go!
THE BATTERS MUST GET ON BASE
The first batter is Seo Dong-wook.
FIRST BATTER SEO DONG-WOOK IS AT BAT
The first pitch is a foul.
Go easy.
It's the bottom of the batting order.
Be good, Jun-seo!
THAT'S ENOUGH, JUN-SEO
-Strike!
-The second pitch is a strike.
Good ball.
It was a fastball at 138km/h.
Let's go.
LET'S AT LEAST GET ON BASE!
Let's go.
The Monsters have to get on base
while Jun-seo is still pitching
and change the atmosphere.
The count is favorable to the pitcher.
Outside. Strikeout looking.
Six strikeouts?
Jeez. What?
WHAT'S UP WITH HIM?
It's the sixth strikeout.
Six of the seven outs
were strikeouts today.
That's pitcher Im Jun-seo.
Jun-seo.
-Shall I sit in?
-You're so good!
HIS PITCHING DOESN'T NEED
THE FIELDERS(?)
Not even one of the Monsters got on base.
Batter eight Yoon Jun-h* is at bat.
Chan-hui, cook them nicely.
From now on, you can see it
as a match between catchers.
That's an important point.
They're both proud catchers
who think, "I'm the best catcher."
They're very concerned
about pitching combos.
Chan-hui, you need to catch Jun-h*.
Make nice pitching combos.
A MATCH BETWEEN
THE TWO PROUD CATCHERS
-Strike.
-The first pitch is a breaking ball.
I can't predict his pitching combos.
-You're right.
-Yes.
-Nice one.
-He saved it.
The catcher is awesome.
I now understand
why they praise catcher Park Chan-hui.
-It's catcher Park Chan-hui.
-Yes.
Let's do one more.
Carefully.
HE HITS!
It's a match between
two best college catchers.
The first hit flies to the infield.
He's out.
-Two outs.
-That was easy.
-We're helpless.
-What's wrong with us?
Batter nine Kim Moon-h* is at bat.
Let's see what happens after one round.
-We'll be fine after one round.
-Yes.
NOT ALL THE BATTER HAVE BATTED YET
I was batter nine today.
The top batters
were going to bat after me,
so I thought
I had to do something for them.
It's two outs with no runners on base.
Batter nine Kim Moon-h*.
Hit it, Moon-h*!
Moon-h*, let's go!
He hits.
He hits.
-It goes center-left.
-Catch it!
CATCH IT
We got it.
What is it?
-Go fast.
-Center-left. Left and center fielders.
Left fielder runs a distance
and catches it.
Nice.
THEY COULDN'T OVERCOME IM JUN-SEO
None of the nine batters
were able to get on base.
FLUSTERED
Pitcher Im Jun-seo got nine outs.
-Nice.
-Okay.
-Nice ball.
-Good job.
-Hey.
-We need extra points.
Let's score more points!
If one gets on base…
He should stop pitching
after the third inning.
(GETTING NERVOUS)
He has great control.
This is important.
Won-sam has to stop the top batters.
It's the top of the fourth inning.
Inha will be at bat.
Jang Won-sam is still on the mound
in the fourth inning.
The Monsters weren't able to get on base
because of Im Jun-seo.
He has to make sure
he doesn't let them score.
-Let's go!
-Let's go!
Catcher Park Chan-hui is at bat.
Today, catcher Yoon Jun-h*
of the Monsters had an infield fly ball
when he was first at bat.
Yes, that's right.
What result will he make?
Catcher Park Chan-hui.
He swings and misses. Stealing the timing.
Jang Won-sam.
CHAN-HUI LOST THE TIMING
Drop the ball.
Catcher Yoon Jun-h* is giving a sign.
He puts the mitt outside again.
A ground ball. A foul toward third base.
-Nice ball!
-Jang Won-sam's pitching speed
-is increasing, don't you think?
-Yes.
-Previously, he threw at 130km/h.
-Yes.
-That means he's feeling better.
-Right.
The count is favorable to Jang Won-sam.
THE MAN OF FALL, JANG WON-SAM
This time the ball goes outward.
He hits it.
It flies high to the infield.
First baseman catches the ball.
It's one out.
I think it was an outside changeup.
He threw it
where you can't help but swing the bat.
Won-sam threw close to the batter
when the batter was right-handed.
But in this inning, he's throwing
a lot of outside pitches.
That's right.
His pitching combos
and corner work are magical.
Batter seven Park Min-su is at bat.
Min-su, move up a little.
Toward the pitcher, Min-su.
If he stops them this inning,
the Monsters can change the atmosphere.
I MUST STOP THEM
He hits the first pitch.
He hits the first pitch.
The ball hits the end of the bat.
Back!
NO…
The ball hits the end of the bat.
Center fielder goes after it.
It falls where he can't catch it.
He catches it barehanded.
Center fielder Lee Taek-keun
stopped it at a short hit.
-Nice batting.
-Good job!
WE GAINED MOMENTUM
DRINKING COLD WATER
THEY'RE ABOUT TO LOSE POINTS AGAIN
Jeez, the ball…
DISPIRITED
He hit it.
After one out,
Park Min-su gets on base with a hit.
Two!
THERE ARE 2 OUTS LEFT
Batter eight
Jung Chang-dae is at bat next.
Chang-dae, it's not fast.
It won't be 130km/h.
Move up and hit it in that direction.
-Chang-dae, focus!
-Go!
Chang-dae, don't hit if it's a ball!
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 0 MONSTERS
It'll be a fastball.
The first pitch is an outside strike.
-Jeez.
-Let's go!
The runner will run this time.
Min-su, move up a little more.
BINGO
Here comes our chance.
1ST BASE RUNNER MOVES AWAY
Hit it hard.
GLANCING
HE RUNS!
It's a foul. The runner ran.
It's a good ball, Won-sam!
GOOD, ONE MORE!
Infield, get ready!
-Double play!
-Okay!
Check him! Be careful!
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 0 MONSTERS
Here it comes.
HE RUNS AGAIN!
He's fooled by an inside pitch.
The catcher throws it to second base.
He targets the runner on second base!
HE RIPPED IT!
Hey, Jun-h*!
-Nice!
-Good job, Jun-h*!
Jang Won-sam and Yoon Jun-h*
showed teamwork.
-Nice play.
-The inning is over.
That was Jang Won-sam
and Yoon Jun-h* battery.
-We got it!
-You ripped it.
We got it! Batters!
This is our opportunity.
Start from batter one.
Okay. It's our chance.
-Play defense!
-Im Jun-seo hasn't let
any batters have a hit
until the third inning.
If Jeong Keun-woo,
who is great at stealing bases,
gets on base, the atmosphere could change
for the Monsters.
Didn't he hit the most home runs?
Jeong Keun-woo is the best batter.
All the batters have batted once.
Jeong Keun-woo is facing
Im Jun-seo for the second time.
As he started to throw a lot of fastballs,
I could see a pattern.
This time his first pitch
will be a fastball.
Get ready!
WILL HE THROW A FASTBALL AS PREDICTED?
He hits the first pitch.
-It's gone.
-It's gone.
-Jeez.
-It's gone.
THAT'S IT
-It's gone.
-It's gone.
It flies left!
This hit goes…
Home run!
HOME RUN
HE HITS THE FIRST PITCH
THIS HIT GOES…
Over the fence!
Yes!
-Yes!
-It went over!
-That's it!
-You did it!
It's the fourth home run!
Jeong Keun-woo is showing off
his power once again
in a place like his hometown.
It was perfect.
What just happened?
-Jeong Keun-woo's solo home run!
-He's the pride of Incheon.
Incheon is Keun-woo's second hometown!
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 1 MONSTERS
Let's go!
You're unstoppable
every time you play in Incheon.
-Nice play.
-The son of Incheon.
-Nice.
-It's number four.
You're a baseball genius.
It's his fourth home run.
Seriously, no batter,
not even one batter hit his pitch
against pitcher Im Jun-seo,
but Jeong Keun-woo
scored a point with one swing.
What ball did he throw?
-A fastball.
-Was it a fastball?
It was, right?
His first pitch is always a fastball.
They can hit fastballs.
They must've seen so many of them.
Let's see how he does
and substitute in the next inning.
Coming up next
is batter two Choi Soo-hyun.
It's about time Soo-hyun hits one.
Soo-hyun, show them!
All right. Let's go.
AFTER THE HOME RUN,
WHAT WILL BE THE BATTERY'S FIRST PITCH?
HE HITS!
-He hit a curveball.
-Okay! Front!
Okay!
-Good.
-He got it.
-Okay.
-The bat hits the ball. It flies high.
Center fielder moves down
and catches the ball.
He got good timing to hit the curveball.
-But it skipped off the bat.
-Yes.
-Was it a changeup?
-It was a curve.
After the home run,
Jun-seo regained stability.
Now it's Park Yong-taek at bat.
Will it be a curveball or a fastball?
Shouldn't he still keep
a fastball in mind?
-Strike.
-Outside. Strike.
After that home run,
he clearly throws a lot of curveballs.
Yes.
CURVEBALL, YOU SAY…
He hits.
It goes to the left. It goes…
It's outside the line.
The count is unfavorable
to Captain Park Yong-taek.
UNPREDICTABLE PITCH COMBOS
The dropping ball got him.
His curveballs are good.
I'm the strikeout king.
TOTALLY DIFFERENT PITCH COMBO
INDUCES A SWING-AND-MISS
Yong-taek swung with all his might,
but the curveball slipped outside.
-That curve is very powerful.
-It is.
Now, batter four Jung Eui-yoon is at bat.
Top batters are strong. Don't use power.
He hits.
He hits. The ball flies high.
-But it doesn't go far.
-Okay!
Eui-yoon hasn't had
his first home run yet.
Three outs.
But Jeong Keun-woo
made a home run here in the Landers Field.
THE MONSTERS COULDN'T BEAT JUN-SEO
The score is two to one.
CK Monsters has started to catch up.
Today, Won-sam is throwing
for more than one inning.
It looks like
Manager Lee thinks that Won-sam
is able to throw for longer.
Won-sam is good.
It's fall.
Won-sam is all right now.
It's the first batter Ko Myeong-gyu.
Okay, you need to get on base.
MANAGER JUNG IS GIVING SIGNS
Manager Jung Won-bae is giving signs.
Myeong-gyu, go for it.
The ball is Myeong-gyu's favorite.
Let's go!
SIGH…
SURPRISE BUNT
He was ready to bunt.
Checking if it was a swing.
It wasn't a swing.
He was going to bunt
because he knows he's fast.
If he gets on base,
he'll give you a headache.
Jeez, I'm tired.
BUNT IS HIS WEAKNESS
Make them move.
Let's go.
Myeong-gyu, make it happen.
SIGHING
ANOTHER SURPRISE BUNT!
Jeez.
-He bunts again. He runs.
-Jeez.
Second baseman catches it.
But he can't throw it.
His surprise bunt worked.
Ko Myeong-gyu takes first base.
NICE BUNT!
I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS
It's no outs with a runner on first base.
EXHAUSTED ALREADY
That was a great course.
If Won-sam can't catch this,
second baseman Keun-woo can't either
even if he runs fast.
-They won't bunt again.
-Won-sam, the first pitch.
-He'll hit the first pitch.
-I have a bad feeling.
JU-WON: I HAVE A BAD FEELING TODAY
For the first time today,
Inha's first batter got on base.
Let's win!
GIVING ORDERS AGAIN
The runner is fast!
WHAT IS IT THIS TIME?
The fifth inning could be a crisis.
NERVOUS
ANOTHER SURPRISE BUNT!
-He bunts again.
-It's another bunt.
Second baseman Keun-woo catches it.
But he has nowhere to throw it.
Two batters tried
surprise bunts back to back.
-Good!
-You're so good!
Myeong-gyu is really good!
Jeez.
You can see
why Inha university is a strong team.
Here's another point. The records
of the Monsters are exposed already.
Right.
CHOONGAM'S SURPRISE BUNT
SERIOUSLY, WHAT'S WRONG?
CHOONGAM HIGH SCHOOL
KNOCKED WON-SAM DOWN WITH BUNTS
MAKE THE OLD MEN GET TIRED!
DUMBFOUNDED
RELENTLESS BUNT ATTACK
-No!
-Second pitch. It bounced. First base.
IT WAS THE WORST CALLED GAME
FOR THE MONSTERS
I feel like the opponent teams
analyze the Monsters completely
before the game.
They're playing me by bunting.
Will they bunt again?
I don't think so.
Why do they bunt whenever you pitch?
Exactly. Are they kidding me?
Two players in a row surprise-bunted.
-No outs. Runners on first and second.
-That's right.
Now, batter two Kim Seo-won is at bat.
-He's getting ready to bunt.
-Look.
Jeez.
-He's going to bunt too.
-They're all bunting.
I'm so tired.
Move in.
Come in.
They bunt whenever Won-sam is pitching.
PLEASE STOP HIM…
Let's hit one!
I CAN'T LET ANY MORE RUNNERS
GET ON BASE
HE BUNTS TOO!
He bunts. Won-sam catches it.
He turns around
and gets the runner on first base.
Good bunt!
One out. Runners are on third and second.
Jeez.
Three bunts.
Manager Lee is headed to the mound.
Stop them.
-Play for me.
-Good job. It's okay.
-Well done.
-I'm dying.
Pitcher Jang Won-sam
allowed two bunt hits.
-He is done playing for today.
-Umpire.
-Well done.
-Good job.
-Didn't they bunt last time too?
-Yes.
LAUGHING
My legs don't move anymore.
Right.
We have to stop them here.
He chose Soo-chang.
Exactly.
Manager Lee's next choice of pitcher
is Shim Soo-chang.
It's surprising.
Soo-chang has the highest
earned run average on the team.
But Manager Lee chose him
in this critical situation.
(EXTREMELY SHOCKED)
SUPER NERVOUS AS ALWAYS
-I'm reassured.
-Let's go.
-You can throw hard ones.
-Yes, sir.
Just take one batter out.
Ju-won can pitch
for the left-handed batters.
-Don't let them have a hit.
-Okay.
-Let's go.
-Soo-chang.
It's one out. Runners on third and second.
I might check the runners.
-Soo-chang is…
-Is he good at checking?
He can't hear you.
I CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING!
Focus.
Easy ba*ls are coming.
We have to score like three points.
-Go for it, Soo-chang.
-Okay.
Soo-chang needs to pitch really well today
-in order to gain the manager's trust.
-Definitely.
Yes.
Kim Cheong-yong
has two hits in two at-bats.
You have to do it, Cheong-yong!
Runners are on third and second bases.
The first base is empty.
What will Soo-chang throw to Cheong-yong?
The first ball skips off the bat.
Come on, Soo-chang!
The first base is empty. Make it hard.
Don't go easy.
When Soo-chang threw fastballs, splitters,
and sliders, he had good results
on A Clean Sweep.
Right.
He threw a slider for the first pitch.
Yes.
It's strike one.
The count fight continues.
It's an outside fastball.
GOOD EYE, CHEONG-YONG!
Nice!
Soo-chang.
Don't worry about speed. Just throw low.
LOW…
Soo-chang is pitching
when they're about to lose points
after they just started
to chase the opponent,
-Dropping ball.
-Front.
-Okay.
-Runners can't move.
Get an infield fly ball.
I MUST INDUCE A GROUND BALL
A low, outside ball.
Three ba*ls, one strike.
The count is lopsided.
-It's okay.
-Keep going.
Two runners are in scoring position.
Soo-chang is pitching
when his team is facing a crisis.
INHA UNIVERSITY 2 : 1 MONSTERS
-Dropping ball!
-That's it. It's a good one.
WHAT A SPLITTER…
It looked like a splitter.
It dropped perfectly.
It dropped well.
The batter couldn't help but just watch.
Now the count is three to two.
The first base is empty.
What will Soo-chang throw?
Throw with all your might.
Last pitch! Come on!
Squeeze it!
He swings at a dropping ball!
He swings and misses.
Uncaught third strike.
UNEXPECTED GOOD PITCH BY SOO-CHANG
-Good job!
-Okay, good!
That's it!
SPEECHLESS
Jeez.
The previous splitter was a strike.
So Kim Cheong-yong
couldn't hold back on this one.
Right.
Yoon Jun-h* and Shim Soo-chang
made the second out of the inning.
-Good job.
-Is it over?
-Is it over already?
-Go eat a banana.
-Go and eat a banana.
-What? It's not over yet.
Timeout.
IT'S OVER, SOO-CHANG
You did a great job.
I got goosebumps.
-I'm serious.
-Go eat a banana.
-Nice pitching.
-Good job.
With a strikeout, pitcher Shim Soo-chang
did his job faithfully.
Hey, give him a lot of compliments.
-Okay!
-Give Soo-chang a compliment.
His super proud of himself already.
Sun-woo is happier than him.
That was Soo-chang's best pitching.
-Nice pitching.
-He's smiling.
He came back smiling.
It's been a while since I saw you smile.
-You're the best.
-Nice.
EMBARRASSED
Can I go back up there?
Put your glove down now.
-I just came back.
-Be quiet.
-Cheer the team on.
-Okay.
Manager Lee's next choice
is pitcher Oh Ju-won.
-It's your turn. I'm sorry.
-Yes. It's all good.
I think he'll be the pickiest pitcher.
How does his arm go like that?
-It's two outs. Fourth batter.
-Yes.
You'll get him today.
When do you want to go?
-Anytime.
-Are you okay?
Dae-eun will go last then.
-You'll go next.
-Okay.
If Ju-won keeps this score,
you'll get up there
in the seventh or eighth inning.
-Start warming up in the seventh inning.
-Yes, sir.
-You'll go last.
-Yes, sir.
Ju-won, let's go!
If he takes him out, we'll gain momentum.
I HAVE TO STOP THEM FROM SCORING
-Let's go.
-They have to watch out for this batter.
-Right.
-He had a hit at first.
Then he got on base on ba*ls
the second time.
Min-hyeong, it's two outs!
Look at the center. Home!
Runners are on third and second bases.
The first base is empty.
What will he throw?
HE HITS!
Please catch it.
-Front.
-He caught it.
PLEASE BE A HIT!
He hits! Right side.
Right fielder tries to catch it!
The ball keeps going.
SIGHING…
INHA UNIVERSITY 3 : 1 MONSTERS
-Keep going.
-Go!
2ND BASE RUNNER KEEPS GOING?
THE BALL WENT TOO FAR
Two runners reached home plate.
The score is four to one.
The batter goes to second
and reaches third base.
-Okay!
-Min-hyeong!
Park Min-hyeong!
HE DIDN'T EXPECT JU-WON
TO LOSE POINTS
It was too easy for the fourth batter.
-Right.
-Ju-won can't throw ba*ls.
There was only one out left,
but CK Monsters let them score.
I have a terrible headache.
I can't see.
Ju-won said he wasn't feeling well today.
-Really?
-He said he had a headache.
Is that right?
He said he had a headache
and he wasn't feeling well.
-Did Ju-won say that?
-Yes, he has a headache.
Why didn't he say that
before going up there?
-What's wrong?
-He has a headache.
-A headache?
-Yes.
He shouldn't have gone up there
if he's sick.
What? Ju-won has a headache?
This is bad. Pitcher…
DUGOUT HAS AN EMERGENCY
All of a sudden,
Inha university gained momentum.
Right.
A runner is on third base.
Now, batter five Hwang Seong-h* is at bat.
Just be calm and stop him.
SUN-WOO: BE CALM AND STOP HIM!
Two outs. A runner on third base.
Oh Ju-won.
HE HITS!
He lowers his posture
and makes another timely hit.
FRUSTRATED!
Let's go!
Nice!
HWANG SEONG-h*'S 1 RBI TIMELY HIT!
Hey, Seong-h*!
Seong-h*!
Jeez.
-They hit Ju-won's pitches.
-As expected,
he had a powerful hit.
Oh Ju-won let them score another point.
Now, the score is five to one.
-I think his head is hurting a lot.
-Right.
He's touching his head.
Do we have two pitchers left?
I'm left too,
but I'm the starting pitcher tomorrow.
HEE-KWAN CAN'T PLAY
Seung-jun, you need to start
in the sixth inning.
Ju-won's head keeps hurting.
-Yes, sir.
-Why didn't he tell me?
Jeez.
If he told us, we would've done something.
We don't have many pitchers.
If I don't pitch,
the next pitcher has to throw more.
It'd be more pressure,
so I wanted to pitch longer.
I WANTED TO PITCH MORE
Two outs. A runner on first base.
Four points apart.
Now, batter six Park Chan-hui is at bat.
I NEED TO TAKE CARE OF IT MYSELF
The first pitch is a strike.
-Nice ball!
-Ju-won, go for it!
Go lightly!
-He swings and misses. Two strikes.
-Okay.
-The count is favorable to the pitcher.
-Go.
Oh Ju-won has to stop them.
He swings and misses.
STRIKE
Strikeout. The inning is over.
JU-WON'S HEADACHE IS BACK
Ju-won isn't feeling well.
-We need to substitute him.
-He has a headache.
My head hurts.
MY HEAD HURTS…
-Are you all right?
-Yes.
-Go in.
-Go inside, Ju-won.
-Okay.
-My head hurts.
Jeez, this is bad.
We can switch.
Then we'll have a problem tomorrow.
We only have two.
Tomorrow, Hee-kwan, Seung-jun,
and Dae-eun have to pitch.
We'll have a problem
if Ju-won can't throw.
Batters, we need to score.
Let's score!
-Let's go!
-Let's go!
We can score. We still have time.
Just get the first batter.
Play strong defense.
IT'S TIME TO OVERCOME IM JUN-SEO
It's a ground ball.
Third baseman catches it
and throws it to first.
-The runner is out on first base.
-All right.
DEEP SIGH…
Ryu Hyun-in is at bat.
Let's focus.
HE HITS!
-He hits a dropping ball.
-Yes.
Ryu Hyun-in gets on base with a hit.
He did it.
HYUN-IN, STAY WITH US
-Okay.
-That's it!
The Monsters are four points behind.
So they need consecutive hits.
Also, for the first time today,
there's a batter at bat
with a runner on base.
It's already
the bottom of the fifth inning.
HE HITS!
It goes high.
It skipped off the bat.
Fielders are gathering.
Front!
Left fielder is going after it.
Foul territory.
He catches it!
Left fielder Ko Myeong-gyu
made this hit an out.
Jeez.
Every batter is precious to the Monsters.
But Seo Dong-wook is out
because of a foul fly ball.
Now Yoon Jun-h* is at bat.
-Jun-h*, you need to do this.
-Jun-h*, hit it.
Jun-h*, score a point.
If we catch up one by one, we can win.
I don't know about anyone else,
but get Jun-h*.
Fifth inning. There's only one out left.
Pitcher Im Jun-seo.
The Monsters
have been completely held back
by Im Jun-seo.
What will Yoon Jun-h* do?
I MUST GET ON BASE
-Dropping ball!
-Another curveball.
STRIKEOUT
He swings and misses. It's a strikeout.
THE INNING IS OVER
WITHOUT SCORING ANY POINTS
He uses the weapon he's the proudest of
in a crisis.
-It was pitcher Im Jun-seo.
-Nice.
This is how you play baseball.
Baseball is easy!
-It's okay.
-Let's throw about 30.
When it's two strikes, we'll switch.
Yes, sir.
The Monsters substituted the pitcher.
Song Seung-jun is on the mound.
The score is five to one.
Four points difference.
They look serious.
Kim Sun-woo may end up
being a losing pitcher.
Right.
Can Seung-jun go again tomorrow
if he throws 30?
Yes, he can throw an inning.
THERE'S ONLY ONE PITCHER LEFT
The pitcher has to guard the points.
MUST END THIS INNING
WITH A FEW PITCHES
Seung-yuop, you need to do this.
Don't worry.
I told Seung-jun and Dae-eun
to induce hits to make outs.
Let them throw two innings each.
Tomorrow they can throw
one or two innings.
So don't worry.
Just worry about the game.
I'll take care of the pitchers.
Seung-yuop, don't worry.
WORRIED TO THE MAX
First batter is Park Min-su.
-He had a hit previously.
-Yes.
You need to get him now.
HE HITS!
He pulls. A hit through the 5-6 hole.
-Song Seung-jun allowed a hit too.
-Okay!
DEVASTATED
The Monsters
were optimistic about winning.
But they keep facing a crisis.
It's the sixth inning.
And this is the tenth hit already.
Yes.
Pinch runner, please.
Is he using a pinch runner?
He's substituting the runner.
That's it for batter Park Min-su.
Batter eight Jung Chang-dae is at bat.
Hit it strong from the start!
5 POINTS AREN'T ENOUGH
No outs. A runner on first base.
Song Seung-jun
is feeling a lot of pressure.
HE HITS!
He hits a low dropping ball.
-It's slow. Choi Soo-hyun catches it.
-It's not easy.
He's out on first base.
RELIEVED…
Choi Soo-hyun played good defense.
But first base runner
is now on second base.
Batter nine Ko Myeong-gyu is at bat.
One out. A runner on second base.
Soo-hyun, cover the line!
He's in front. Left.
INFIELDERS GET READY FOR A LONG HIT
INHA UNIVERSITY 5 : 1 MONSTERS
He swings at the outside curveball.
Myeong-gyu, you should make it long.
It's too short.
Contact the ball.
We have to stop him.
We'll have the next chance.
It skips off the bat. It's a foul.
It's two strikes.
The count is favorable to Seung-jun.
Let's go lightly, Seung-jun!
Song Sam-bong! Stop him no matter what.
ONE MORE STRIKE WILL DO
A fastball close to the batter.
He moves back and cuts it off.
SIGHING…
He threw one close to the batter
after throwing a few outside pitches.
It was perfect
to get the batter to swing and miss.
But he was able to contact it.
His level of batting ability is very high.
You have to reach home!
(ROGER THAT!)
The match with this batter is important.
Will Song Seung-jun be able
to get an out?
-Good one.
-Outside.
A STRIKEOUT IN A CRISIS
It was a low course, strikeout looking.
-Good!
-Nice ball!
He took care of Ko Myeong-gyu. Two outs.
INHA IS HALTED BY SEUNG-JUN
Seung-jun was in crisis because
of the first batter getting on base.
But now he got two outs.
It's batter one Jung Hyeon-seung.
Hyeon-seung, bring one home!
Two outs. A runner on second base.
WITH AN OUT, THE INNING WILL BE OVER
WITHOUT EXTRA POINTS
-Good! You need to stop him!
-Two outs!
He hits.
He hits.
It's a hit between first and second.
-Home!
-Go!
He ordered him to run home.
-Fast!
-Going past third base!
TO THE HOME PLATE!
-Throw it!
-He throws it home!
-Home!
-Go!
-Home!
-Go!
OUT?
SAFE?
-He's making him run.
-Going past third base!
The ball is thrown home! To home plate!
The ball is thrown home! To home plate!
The runner was faster!
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
-Yes!
-Okay!
INHA IS TRAMPLING ON THE MONSTERS
CK Monsters has lost yet another point.
-Jeez.
-The score is six to one.
With one out left,
Seung-jun let them score a point.
The batter is now on second base.
-Is ten points a called game?
-Ten points.
-Ten points?
-Ten points.
We have five points to go!
LET'S GO FOR A CALLED GAME!
A dark shadow is over the Monsters.
They're five points behind.
There's a runner in scoring position.
Seung-jun can't throw
more than one inning.
Switch in the seventh inning.
Seung-jun can't do it.
THE MONSTERS HIT THE WALL OF REALITY
I was concerned about tomorrow's game.
Still, I thought to myself,
"I shouldn't let them score anymore."
Batter two Kim Seo-won is at bat.
It's two outs.
One more! Be overwhelming!
-Strike.
-He watches the breaking ball.
STRIKE
-Hyeon-seung, it's two outs.
-Yes, sir.
INHA PERSISTENTLY GOES FOR HOME
EVEN WITH 2 OUTS
Seo-won, let's go one more.
Two outs. A runner on second base.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
-A dropping ball. He swings and misses.
-Okay!
JEEZ
He's sh**ting.
You can hit it!
Two strikes.
The count is favorable to the pitcher.
THE INNING IS OVER AFTER ONE STRIKE
We really need to win today.
Please.
We really have to win.
There's a runner in scoring position.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
Can they overcome the crisis?
In, out!
-Strike.
-It's in! Strikeout looking.
NO…
-The inning is over.
-It was great.
-Okay!
-That's it.
-Good.
-No ball.
-Okay.
-Okay.
After two outs, Inha university scored.
They are five points ahead.
Seung-jun.
Yes.
-Well done.
-Good job.
-Eui-yoon, hit a home run.
-Two points each.
-Let's pick it up!
-We can catch up!
-Let's go.
-Let's try.
Let's catch up! Taek-keun!
CK Monsters are
getting overwhelmed
by the starter Im Jun-seo.
The Monsters scored a point.
But that was Keun-woo's solo home run.
-Yes.
-There's only one hit except that.
Jun-seo hasn't thrown four ba*ls today.
Now the first batter
Kim Moon-h* is at bat.
-Strike.
-The first pitch is a strike.
The first batter Kim Moon-h*
has an important mission.
-Strike!
-A curveball.
-He's playing his trump card.
-Yes.
He really is.
That curveball is Im Jun-seo's trump card.
He throws that curveball
whenever he wants.
Regardless of the batter or the count.
The count is favorable to the pitcher.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
It's a high fastball.
Keep it up! It's almost done!
JUN-SEO IS SHAKING MOON-h*
WITH A HIGH FASTBALL
Moon-h*'s role is important now.
-Right. Inha is five points ahead.
-Yes.
It's important
for the first batter to get on base.
-A fastball.
-It's another fastball.
He threw two high fastballs.
Right.
Moon-h*, get on base.
I BELIEVE IN YOU, MOON-h*!
3 ba*ls
It misses the strike zone again.
It's a full count.
Jun-seo, no four ba*ls!
It's a full count.
-Moon-h* has to hang in there.
-Right.
It's six to one. Five points difference.
It's a full-count match.
He threw 77 ba*ls.
This is his 78th pitch.
-A low ball.
-The fastball misses the strike zone.
LET'S CATCH UP
-That's it!
-Nice!
-That's it!
-Nice.
I think he'll visit the mound.
It's his first four ba*ls today.
JUN-SEO ALLOWED A BASE ON ba*ls
Manager Jung Won-bae visits the mound.
MANAGER JUNG VISITS THE MOUND
Let's switch you out. Good work.
He switches out Im Jun-seo,
the starting pitcher.
He's coming onto the mound already?
Who is he?
He's apparently the best southpaw
in university baseball.
Be careful on your first pitch
against him.
Also, be aware of an extra-base hit.
He's the pitcher known
as the ace player of Inha University.
His name is Cho Jun-hyeok.
He is known to pitch powerful changeups
against right-handed hitters
-and sliders against left-handed hitters.
-Right.
Jun-h*, Hyun-in.
What pitch does he usually throw?
He pitches changeups
and fastballs that curve to the left.
He's got good control.
He uses inside pitches
against right-handed hitters,
THE MONSTERS ARE FOCUSED
He is going against Jeong Keun-woo,
the only batter
with an extra-base hit today.
A runner on first base with no outs.
Jun-hyeok said he was most afraid
of going against Keun-woo.
-Right.
-What will he pitch against him?
A brushback.
That was a good pitch.
KEUN-WOO WATCHES THE FIRST PITCH
Cho Jun-hyeok.
-Good eyes.
-Pitches inside again.
He's trying to force a swing
by pitching low,
but Keun-woo manages
to hold back from swinging.
Jun-hyeok, please don't get nervous.
HE CONTEMPLATES…
We can't let them have more runners.
We need an out.
He pitches inside again.
Keun-woo holds back well.
-Nice!
-You got this.
-He needs to hold back once more.
-Keun-woo, go!
Let's get some runners!
A runner on first base with no outs.
Cho Jun-hyeok must feel
pressured right now more than ever.
Keun-woo, let's go.
He pitches inside.
He pitches deep inside.
-Okay!
-Let's go!
Nice walk!
We finally have two runners
for the first time today.
HAVING 2 RUNNERS FOR THE FIRST TIME
Although we're only halfway
through the game,
they use Lee Hong-ku as a pinch hitter
to make a big move.
Manager Lee is
looking for an extra-base hit.
Runners on first and second.
Lee Hong-ku is in the box.
He makes contact!
FLIES UP HIGH!
The ball goes high up and far!
-It's gone!
-Yes!
It's gone.
It goes far! It goes near the wall!
But it's outside the pole.
A foul is called.
-No!
-Gosh.
THAT WAS SO CLOSE
DARN IT…
As soon as he made contact,
we knew it was a homer for sure.
That's right.
It was so high that we couldn't even find
where the ball was.
But he proved his batting skills
with that foul.
Be aware of extra-base hits!
It's a foul. Nothing big.
NOTHING BIG(?)
-Strike!
-Pitches inside.
He pitches into the zone perfectly.
University athletes definitely have
near-perfect breaking ba*ls.
I agree.
Runners on first and second.
A hit can bring the momentum back
to the Monsters.
WHO WILL BE
THE WINNER OF THIS FIGHT?
Swings and misses! Strikeout!
A breaking ball sends Lee Hong-ku back!
After a foul home run, Lee Hong-ku
steps down with a strikeout.
Next up is Park Yong-taek.
Can he continue this momentum
as the designated hitter?
He makes contact!
He makes contact! First base fields it!
Hey!
First base fields it!
The ball hits the runner!
-Darn. The runner…
-This is nuts.
The runner is hit by the ball!
SMILING
-What just happened?
-Nice.
What happened?
After the first baseman fielded it,
a 3-6-1 double play should've happened.
Let's see Jeong Keun-woo.
First base was supposed to throw right,
but he throw left instead.
This is a big error.
This means that all the runners are safe.
He wasn't able to get any outs
with that hit.
-It's here.
-Let's go!
Luck is on our side!
-Next up is Jung Eui-yoon.
-Right.
One is definitely coming home.
This is bad, Jun-hyeok. Stop them.
Just one out for now!
The Monsters' first chance
to score big this game.
Will they be able to score any runs?
Jung Eui-yoon.
HE HITS!
The ball flies up.
But it doesn't travel far.
-Catch it.
-First baseman goes into foul territory.
He catches it in foul territory. Two outs.
Oh, no.
Two outs with the bases loaded.
Why would you catch that?
Although the Monsters' strength
is in their late innings
and they have the power to score big,
but if they don't score in this chance,
there's a high chance they won't
be able to turn the game around.
That's right.
Jun-hyeok. Let's defend this.
Next up is Lee Taek-keun.
He doesn't have a hit yet today.
The Monsters need a hit.
AN EXTRA-BASE HIT
WILL CHANGE THE GAME
It skips off the bat. It's a foul.
THEY MAKE INCOMPREHENSIBLE NOISE
They won't be able to fight at all
if they don't score this inning.
You're right.
-Strike!
-He pitches outside.
The umpire calls strike?
THAT WAS IN THE ZONE?
Sir, look at the side!
-That was…
-I mean, that pitch was quite far out.
Looking at Park Chan-hui's framing,
the umpire called strike, considering
that the ball was on the border.
HE WILL NOT CHANGE HIS CALL
An unfavorable count for Taek-keun.
It doesn't have to be a long hit!
The Monsters can bring the game back
to them with a hit here.
We need to score runs here.
Let's go.
2 OUTS WITH THE BASES LOADED
WILL HE BE ABLE TO GRAB THIS CHANCE?
Will Lee Taek-keun
be able to seize the chance?
He pitches inside. And it's in the zone!
He's struck out looking!
Three runners left on bases!
No one was able
to take the greatest chance
they had today.
The score is still six to one.
They are still five runs behind.
THE TOP OF THE 7TH INNING
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
You won't throw more than 30 pitches.
He switched Son Seung-jun out
after one inning.
The remaining pitchers were
Rhee Dae-eun and Yoo Hee-kwan,
and he chooses Dae-eun
to pitch starting the seventh.
They allowed many runs in a row
on the fifth and sixth.
So he thought if they allowed more runs,
they wouldn't be able to win the game.
Hence, the powerful move.
They play Rhee Dae-eun.
Lee Hong-ku is at first.
And Jeong Keun-woo is switched
to play the third baseman.
That's right.
First up is Kim Cheong-yong.
THE BEST HITTER, KIM CHEONG-YONG
If the Monsters lose the game today,
they will be on a losing streak
for the first time.
You're right.
HE HITS!
He pushes it out.
But Rhee Dae-eun ends up
allowing a hit to the first hitter.
Gosh, seriously.
MY GOODNESS
This is frustrating.
WHY ARE THEY SO GOOD!
The third and fourth hitters
don't go for big hits.
But instead, they annoyingly
do so well in making contact.
I tried to go too easy.
Next up is the fourth hitter,
Park Min-hyeong.
He went three for three today.
Two hits and a walk.
He scored a hit, a walk, and a triple.
JUNG WON-BAE SIGNALS HIS PLAN
The runner starts running
and the batter makes contact.
Second baseman moves back
and throws to first.
Out on first base.
1 OUT
GOOD JOB
Great job.
The new second baseman gets an out.
This was the best we could do.
How is his two-seam?
Is it similar to Kim Sun-woo's?
It's faster than his.
But this guy's delivery is better.
A runner on second with an out.
Two outs left.
Let's finish it here.
Hwang Seong-h* is up next.
Watching him play shortstop,
it seemed like
he was a player
with more power than accuracy.
As the opponent team, this hitter
can be a difficult one to deal with.
-You're right.
-He also makes good contact.
IT SKIPS OFF THE BAT!
It skips off the bat and flies high.
-Catch it!
-Catch it!
-It's in here.
-Catch it.
It's hard to see because it's dark.
Yoon Jun-h* moves back
and catches the ball.
The runner cannot run.
-Nice.
-Good job!
This is good.
One last out left.
Next up is Park Chan-hui.
In the university league, his BA is .349.
But he didn't show us anything today.
I WILL STOP YOU FROM GETTING
ON BASE THIS TIME TOO
He makes contact.
A sharp hit, but it's a foul.
-His increased velocity is at 145km/h.
-That's true.
Isn't this the highest velocity
of our show?
We had 149km/h.
-Was it Rhee Dae-eun?
-Yes.
Why did he retire then?
If he could pitch 149km/h,
why did he retire?
But even at this velocity,
he swung the bat a bit early.
The pitch is outside, but he swings.
The drop on the pitch was sharp.
It's critical that he drops it low.
The hitter is quite strong
against a fastball.
HE MUST PITCH A BREAKING BALL
AGAINST HIM
The pitcher has the favorable count.
A breaking pitch!
Swings and misses. Strikeout!
A CLEAN STRIKEOUT!
-Nice!
-Nice!
-You're the best!
-Let's do this.
First hitter gets on base,
but Dae-eun manages to defend the mound.
Yoon Jun-h* and Park Chan-hui are
interrupting each other's game.
CURBING EACH OTHER
-Let's defend.
-Darn, I hate that breaking ball.
The score is six to one.
-This is good!
-Okay.
We need to score now.
Hyun-in, give us another hit.
We need a big inning now.
-I know, right?
-Yes. We need one.
PLEASE HANG IN THERE…
This is now the bottom of the seventh.
You can do this, Hyun-in.
THE BOTTOM OF THE SEVENTH
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
This is stage two.
After high school athletes,
they are going against university players.
-But they are indeed a strong team.
-Right.
-First up is Ryu Hyun-in.
-The first pitch.
Come on, Hyun-in.
Let's get on base safely.
First pitch.
-Strike.
-He starts off with a strike.
It's a slow breaking ball
that curves near the body.
Gosh. That was… Is he Yoo Hee-kwan?
That was a slow breaking pitch
with a velocity of 89km/h.
This must be why they call him
the Yoo Hee-kwan of university baseball.
HEY, MAN!
Copying me, are you?
IS HE TRYING TO PROVOKE ME?
These pitches are
usually called eephus pitches.
A super, slow curveball.
HYUN-IN CAN HANDLE
THESE UNUSUAL PITCHES!
-Strike!
-He is struck out looking!
JUN-HYEOK STARTS THE INNING OFF
WITH A STRIKEOUT
Wasn't it too wide?
HE SIGHS…
He steps out of the box with a strikeout.
Jun-hyeok just struck out Hyun-in easily.
Good job.
Next up is the seventh hitter, Dong-wook.
His wife and his family are here today.
That's right.
HE HITS!
It skips off his bat.
First baseman fields it and throws it.
Pitcher catches it
and steps on first base. Two outs.
SO CLOSE
-It's so difficult to make chances.
-Right.
We can finally feel and understand
why Cho Jun-hyeok is an ace player
with good performance.
Yoon Jun-h* enters the box.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
Jun-hyeok, you have to get him out.
You know Jun-h* well.
Jun-h* hasn't been able to prove himself
in the box just yet.
I WILL PROVE MYSELF THIS TIME
Give us a good hit, Jun-h*!
Show me what you've got!
It's a ball. It's base-on-ba*ls.
-Nice!
-All right! Get on the base.
-Was it a slider or a changeup?
-Slider.
A runner after two outs.
Kim Moon-h* asked Jun-h* on his way in
to check what pitch he threw.
The result of his batting will show
if it was helpful.
A RUNNER ON 1ST WITH 2 OUTS
Ninth hitter, Kim Moon-h*.
Let's get him too.
HE'S AIMING TO HIT A SLIDER
A SLIDER GRIP!
HE HITS!
He pushes the ball out to the left!
A HIT ON THE LEFT!
-Nice!
-All right!
-Moon-h* is feeling good today.
-Nice!
The Monsters get on base after two outs!
Let's hit a home run now.
Jeong Keun-woo is up next
to seize this chance.
Let's go again with number one!
Keun-woo is the only one
with multi hits today,
and he comes into the box
with this chance.
He hit that inside
breaking ball very nicely.
Yoon Jun-h* on second,
and Kim Moon-h* is on first.
Right-handed hitter Keun-woo
is facing the southpaw Cho Jun-hyeok.
THE ONLY ONE WITH RBI TODAY
The first pitch was a brushback.
The runners are not moving.
They did let him walk earlier
on his first appearance,
but the pitcher isn't throwing
any fastballs yet.
That means that the catcher has
fully analyzed
what the hitter is weak against.
Whether you watch
professional baseball or not,
you rarely see catchers
being switched out.
So the catcher knows
his opponents the best.
HE ACTS LIKE HE'S COMING IN
BUT HE GOES OUT
He asks for a pitch outside.
-You can do this!
-You can do this!
-Jeez.
-Gosh, that was a fastball.
Jun-hyeok really knows
how to catch someone off guard.
The pitch was in the zone,
but Keun-woo couldn't swing his bat.
Although the velocity was only 132km/h,
Keun-woo probably felt like
it was 140km/h or above.
The count is one and one.
He asks for a pitch inside.
It's a breaking pitch.
He swings but misses.
Darn it.
I have to say this. His skills are
so unique and unpredictable.
UNPREDICTABLE
A PERFECT SEQUENCE AND CONTROL
The count is favorable to the pitcher,
Cho Jun-hyeok.
KEUN-WOO MUST GET ON BASE
TO TURN THE GAME AROUND
Jeong Keun-woo.
STRIKE OUT LOOKING
It's in the zone. He's struck out looking!
EASILY DELETED THE INNING!
HE SIGHS…
They are playing with us.
Runners on first and second.
The Monsters failed to turn this chance
into runs once again.
PITCHES: 41, BALL: 17,
STRIKE: 24, STRIKEOUT: 4
The Monsters still only have one run.
MONSTERS IN A TIGHT SPOT
STILL A 5-POINT DIFFERENCE…
They are so good.
They are just good at baseball.
The sequencing
and his curveball control are great.
There's nothing they can do.
This is now the top of the eighth.
-Rhee Dae-eun still takes the mound.
-That's right.
Aren't they out of pitchers?
-Them?
-Yes.
They have Yoo Hee-kwan.
Did Soo-chang pitch?
-He was a one-out reliever.
-Let's defend!
No one else left then, right?
Let's go!
Pitch a shutout tomorrow like last time.
Can you do it or not?
I'll pitch to the sixth or seventh.
-I want you to pitch the whole game.
-How can I…
Seon Ji-seung is
the first and the pinch hitter.
Let's do this, Ji-seung!
DAE-EUN MUST DEFEND WELL
IN ORDER TO HAVE A CHANCE
Let's go!
He hits the first pitch. It flies up high.
-Third base.
-Got it.
An infield fly ball is caught.
Come on!
-Let's save up pitch counts.
-Good!
Seon Ji-seung is out with a fly ball.
Why isn't he hurrying?
Next up is another pinch hitter,
Kim Sang-jin.
Swing with confidence!
Swings and misses, strikeout!
MISSED WITH CONFIDENCE
-All right.
-This is good.
Two outs now.
Rhee Dae-eun pitched 24 times.
DAE-EUN IS PITCHING OUTS QUICKLY
With Ko Myeong-gyu up next,
fielders should be on their toes.
HE HITS!
He hits the first pitch.
It's a hit in the center.
A CENTER HIT
He entered the box,
thinking of hitting a two-seam.
Ko Myeong-gu makes
his second hit for the day.
Nice job!
Next up is the leadoff hitter,
Jung Hyeon-seung.
He already has a multi-hit record.
-That's true.
-Right.
He swings but misses.
-You're going to hurt yourself.
-Watch your back.
He went for a big hit.
His back curved like a bow.
A runner on first with two outs.
HE HITS!
He lightly hits it.
The hit goes over the shortstop.
NICE JOB HYEON-SEUNG
That was unexpected. Maybe it was a trick.
He easily made contact
with the ball again.
-It's okay. Let's do this.
-Come on!
Two hits in a row from the hitters.
Runners on first and second.
Next up is Kim Seo-won.
Let's just get one more run.
I MUST PITCH AN OUT THIS TIME
Dae-eun, we can let them score. Stop them!
First pitch.
-It's a swing and a miss.
-Strike.
STRIKE
They seem devoted
to show us something big.
Kim Sun-woo thinks that he shouldn't be
tricked by the full swings.
-It's a bunt.
-See?
-Swing.
-Umpire calls swing.
THAT STARTLED ME…
-You punk!
-Bunt? You little…
DON'T DO THAT!
He bunts the ball in a two-out situation.
It's a wild pitch.
GO!
Runners advance a base each
thanks to the wild pitch.
Two runners in scoring position.
HE SIGHS…
We should decide
if we are going to change it up a bit…
We should.
Then wouldn't it be good
if you visit the mound?
-Should I?
-Yes, tell him assertively.
-You go.
-You should go, sir.
You visit the mound.
YOU SHOULD GO, PITCHING COACH!
Timeout!
You are doing well, Dae-eun.
You really are.
What brings you here?
WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?
Not much to it. Just fight him.
Just pitch aggressively, don't back out.
We have Jun-h*'s blocking, don't worry.
He couldn't block just now.
HE HOLDS GRUDGES?
It's fine.
You have to do well Jun-h*, okay?
Pitch however you want.
Doesn't matter what happens.
Don't be concerned
about what's around you.
So just fight him. Okay?
It bounced too far. My bad.
-I'll put my trust in you.
-Yes, sir.
Let's go with what you want.
If I show my teammates
that I'm pitching with all my might,
I knew we could turn the game around.
If I pitch well,
an opportunity will rise no matter what.
AN OPPORTUNITY WILL RISE
NO MATTER WHAT
JUN-h* ASKS FOR A FORKBALL
The count is one and two.
It's in favor of the pitcher.
It drops low! He misses, it's a strikeout!
It drops low! He misses, it's a strikeout!
-Nice!
-Nice job!
This is good.
Rhee Dae-eun
shuts out the inning once again!
I thought Jun-h* would ask for a fastball.
He asked for a forkball there.
He throws hard.
Nice pitch.
Let's go for three runs this inning.
If the score becomes six to four,
you have to pitch.
You can rest tomorrow after.
I'll pitch if you tell me to.
But if we are behind by three,
you won't pitch.
-Okay.
-But with two runs behind, you will throw.
-So it depends.
-Okay.
THE PLAN TO CATCH UP
IS READY FOR ACTION
This is now the bottom of the eighth.
Losing streak. That record is weighing
on the hearts of the Monsters.
Can the Monsters turn the game around?
-Lee Hong-ku leads off.
-Hong-ku!
We still may lose.
Make sure you get an out.
We might be able to see Cho Jun-hyeok
in KBO next year.
Right.
He makes contact!
HE HITS!
He makes contact. It was well hit.
It lands in the left field.
Nice!
NICE!
The first hitter, Lee Hong-ku,
scores a hit.
Next up is Park Yong-taek.
We need outs here!
Actually, Park Yong-taek has
the lowest BA.
But he has a high RBI.
He always proved himself
at the right moment.
Do this for us.
Swings and misses. Strikeout!
HE SIGHS…
He's going to be in a slump for a while.
That's right.
The two pitchers from Inha
pitch exquisitely.
-I agree.
-Yes.
Next up is Jung Eui-yoon.
Let's go!
His BA is .340.
His OBP is .485.
-But he hasn't been on a base yet today.
-Right.
A runner with one out.
Swings and misses, strikeout!
Two strikeouts in a row.
Park Yong-taek and Jung Eui-yoon
step out with strikeouts.
Since A Clean Sweep aired,
the cleanup trio,
Yong-taek, Eui-yoon, and Taek-keun,
always got on base except for today.
And it's the Monsters' cleanup trio.
Right.
HE HITS!
But Lee Taek-keun ends up
getting on base today!
LET'S PUSH WITH THIS MOMENTUM!
Lee Taek-keun gets on base
against the first pitch.
TAEK-KEUN STARTS CATCHING UP!
The first hit of the cleanup trio
was scored by Lee Taek-keun.
Then it continues onto Ryu Hyun-in.
This is the final, Hyun-in.
Runners on first and second.
One out left.
The Monsters didn't score any runs
except for Jeong Keun-woo's home run.
Ryu Hyun-in is in the box.
He makes contact!
Another hit in the center!
There you go!
RUNNER SPRINTS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE
Home base!
Second base runner stops at third.
The hit didn't go far,
so there was no reason to overcommit.
Hyun-in finishes making the bases full.
HYUN-IN CONTINUES THIS MOMENTUM
WITH A HIT
If you look,
Jun-hyeok threw 60 pitches today.
It's about time he starts losing
power on his shoulders.
Right.
And next up is Seo Dong-wook.
Let's do this, Dong-wook!
Bases loaded with two outs.
Seo Dong-wook enters the box.
Ryu Hyun-in, Lee Taek-keun,
and Lee Hong-ku.
They're on first,
second, and third respectively.
An opportunity after two outs.
Seo Dong-wook is in the box.
He swings for the first pitch!
-Just one hit.
-Swing ruthlessly.
It wasn't a bad idea
to go for the first pitch.
But the ball avoids the bat so closely.
Right.
Another miss against the second pitch.
Please beat him. I beg you.
Dong-wook, please just hit this once.
If one golden opportunity
were to come today,
this chance in the eighth
might be the last.
Right.
Seo Dong-wook can't
allow any more strikes.
When in doubt, he must swing.
But there's a lot for him to cover.
He swings but misses
the breaking pitch! Strikeout.
JUN-HYEOK IMPEDES THEIR CHANCE
BY PITCHING ANOTHER STRIKEOUT
THEY SIGH…
Cho Jun-hyeok shuts them out
three innings in a row.
THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO
MONSTERS FAIL TO SEIZE
THE GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY
SHADOW OF LOSING STREAK
LOOMS CLOSER AND CLOSER
It's fine.
SHADOW OF LOSING STREAK
LOOMS CLOSER AND CLOSER
I thought they'd beat
all the university teams.
-Then this…
-That's hard.
Then this is their first losing streak.
I'm worried about the remaining games.
They even have trouble against them.
We can't have
our fourth loss today already.
HE'S ANXIOUS
Sun-woo is…
-What? Seong-hoon?
-What's this?
Why is he pitching?
THE TOP OF THE 9TH INNING
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 1 MONSTERS
We used up all the pitchers today.
JEONG SEONG-HOON: A DUAL WIELDER?
Seong-hoon, I think
you have to go out on the ninth.
All right.
Well.
The only people left are
you, me, and Soo-sung.
All right. I'll get ready.
ONLY THREE PLAYERS LEFT
But you don't have
a pitcher for the ninth.
Pitcher… We do need one.
I have someone in mind.
NO MORE PITCHER LEFT
HE'S VERY CONCERNED
A PITCHING FORM?
I think he can be our pitcher.
A WELL-CONTROLLED PITCHING(?)
Is he practicing to be a pitcher?
Look at him. He looks decent.
I think I can do it.
Really? You can pitch?
You really can?
-All right.
-Yes.
SEONG-HOON'S DETERMINATION
TO SAVE THE TEAM
We have to squeeze everything out
to win this game.
I will pitch with everything I have.
PITCHER JEONG SEONG-HOON
TAKES THE MOUND ON THE 9TH
Looks good.
I've got nothing to stay. Just pitch.
This is unprecedented on A Clean Sweep.
Jeong Seong-hoon, the outfielder,
takes the mound right now.
And first baseman becomes the catcher.
Then because the first base is empty,
Manager Lee plays defense
for the first time as first baseman.
Although he entered the box four times,
-but he has never played defense.
-That's right.
SHIFTS DEFENSE
IN ORDER TO DEFEND THE INNING
JEONG SEONG-HOON, JEONG KEUN-WOO,
LEE SEUNG-YUOP, LEE HONG-KU
HE'S SURPRISED
I have to get on first.
I have to. I have to meet Manager Lee.
I really want to.
First up is Kim Cheong-yong.
3 FOR 4, BA: 0,750
Shut him out and come in!
I'm looking forward to what he will throw.
SEONG-HOON'S FIRST PITCH IS?
He gets a strike with a 118km/h pitch.
Kim Cheong-yong watches the ball.
His pitches are decent.
I was surprised when I saw him warming up.
That's surprising.
-He's better than us.
-My gosh.
You know he pitched 150km/h
at the KBO All-Star Game?
Really?
He's the real deal. He can pitch 150km/h.
He was known as the baseball prodigy
back in high school.
THE TRUE DUAL WIELDER, SEONG-HOON
BUT HE HITS IT!
He hits the second pitch.
It's a hit that lands
in front of the left fielder.
-Nice!
-Go!
LEADOFF HITTER GETS ON 1ST
GOOD START
-He just swings around.
-He's got four hits.
THEY ARE IN AWE
-Hello, sir.
-Nice batting.
HE LOVES MANAGER LEE AS WELL
Their decision to maintain their pitchers.
Seong-hoon takes the mound,
but he threw two pitches
that resulted in a hit.
Next up is Park Min-hyeong.
A ROLE MODEL
HE WISHED TO MEET AT 1ST BASE
Min-hyeong!
You need to get on base.
Let's keep going and get a called game.
Seong-hoon.
NO NEED TO TRY
AND PICK OFF FIRST BASE
MANAGER LEE FOCUSES ON DEFENSE
Can you move a little? I can't see.
A little bit more.
HE ASKS THE ENEMY PLAYER?
AND KIM CHEONG-YONG
OBEDIENTLY LISTEN TO HIM?
OKAY
STOP, THANK YOU
FOUL
A ground ball, but a foul near first.
A favorable count.
Field the ground ball!
WAY TOO SERIOUS
Dive to first base.
We need to defend this.
We usually say that
when there's a shift in defense,
or change in fielders,
it always goes to the new player.
That means a contact
will result in first base hits.
-To first base!
-It's here.
Lee Seung-yuop at the first catches,
the second first.
-Great job, first baseman!
-Okay!
We rarely see instances
when things go as expected.
It flew off to the first baseman,
then Manager Lee put the first runner out.
It went very smoothly,
although it leaned slightly to one side.
1 OUT, A RUNNER ON 1ST
-Good work.
-Good work to you too.
The fifth batter, Hwang Seong-h*.
BATTER 5, HWANG SEONG-h*
A ROUTINE?
LOOKING AROUND
HE HITS!
It's a grounder. From the second.
Jeong Keun-woo throws.
The first runner is out.
The batter arrives at first base.
SAFELY ON 1ST BASE
The first batter went out,
but Jeong Seong-hoon made two grounders
and got to two outs.
It's hard to get one out,
but it's easy for him.
-He's the toughest to hit.
-Really?
His slider angle is good.
Chan-hui, he has a good angle for sliders.
-Be careful.
-He has a good angle!
He's now up against Park Chan-hui.
LOOKS AROUND AGAIN
A strike on the outside.
-What?
-See? He does it so easily. Look.
Why does he throw so well?
-Gosh.
-He's a genius.
We should look back on ourselves.
Even Seong-hoon throws so well.
HE WAS HERE ALL ALONG
WE FOUND OUR 8TH PITCHER
Swings and misses.
Jeongtani.
THE BREAKING BALL FOOLED THE BATTER
Was that a knuckleball?
That was 101km/h.
It dropped so suddenly.
It's a curveball.
HE CAN ALSO THROW
CURVEBALLS AS HE LIKES
Yes.
The count is favorable for the pitcher.
IT'S FAVORABLE FOR HIM
Jeong Seong-hoon.
-A strong pitch. It's 125km/h.
-It's 125km/h.
WHAT'S THAT SPEED?
THAT'S INSANE
It's suddenly 125km/h?
Great job, Jeongtani!
I think he threw a fastball
-to make the winning move.
-Yes.
WE FOUND A GENIUS PITCHER
Even Jang Won-sam is chuckling.
It's similar to his speed.
-His best was 130km/h.
-It's similar.
A slower pitch.
What will it be?
WHAT WILL BE HIS FINAL PITCH?
Into his torso! Strikeout looking.
IT'S A CURVEBALL
HEY, YOU'RE GOOD!
Great job!
SOMEWHAT BITTER
Hey, you're a genius!
DIZZY, SIGHING
The fielder Jeong Seong-hoon
became a pitcher
and defends the mound
without losing a point.
MR. INDIFFERENT
SHOWS THE BIGGEST SMILE YET
You're having fun now.
To be honest, I always wanted
to pitch on the mound once.
And I got to do my first and last
here at A Clean Sweep.
It was a new experience,
and I honestly had fun.
I also struck him out in the end.
HE DOESN'T FORGET TO SHOW OFF
I began to think that
I should play as a pitcher at times.
GIVE ME A CALL ANYTIME
Six to one, five points difference.
The ninth, final batting.
Will the Monsters be able
to win this game?
Come on, show us a drama.
It'll be insane if they win.
It's Manager Lee Seung-yuop.
Let's go, Seung-yuop.
Come on, Seung-yuop. Manager Lee.
The eighth batter was Yoon Jun-h*,
but Manager Lee Seung-yuop is
batting in his place.
Yes.
Then the first batter of the bottom
of the ninth is Lee Seung-yuop.
-Man, Lee Seung-yuop.
-Lee Seung-yuop
Lee Seung-yuop of Samsung
The pitcher changed to Jeon Yeong-jun.
Pitch at ease. Only three outs to go.
The first batter is important.
GET MANAGER YUOP FIRST
-His ace is a slider.
-Yes.
He can throw up to 144km/h.
Nice pitch.
Nice slider today.
Only three outs left.
How will this game end?
-Good work.
-Good work.
-Go out!
-Mr. Seung, come on!
Let's go out!
Seong-h*, go that way.
THE SHORTSTOP MOVES
Jeon Yeong-jun's first pitch.
He watches the first pitch.
YES, NICE LEAD
Not bad.
The pitchers of Inha University has
amazing breaking ball control.
Five at-bats on A Clean Sweep,
four hits and one single is
Manager Lee Seung-yuop's record.
He hits.
He hits. It flies up.
-Yes.
-Gosh.
That was close.
-He might miss.
-We don't know yet.
We don't know!
It skips off the bat.
The fielders come in.
Three fielders, four.
He misses.
-They're unable to catch.
-Yes!
You never know. That's it.
THE FIRST BATTER GOES OUT
-All right!
-A fine.
-It's a single.
-Stay there.
NO OUTS, A RUNNER ON THE 1ST
The sun is setting,
and it's tough
for the fielders to see the ball.
This is around the time
when something like this happens
-during professional ball games too.
-Yes.
The lights came on after the sun set.
That's right.
He couldn't spot
where the ball would fall.
No.
What are you doing?
This is an odd situation.
Kim Moon-h* is next at bat.
Focus until the end.
Guys, stay focused until the end.
Don't relax.
Let's make the miracle
of the ninth, please.
A foul.
Kim Moon-h* wanted to make contact.
HE'S TRYING TO MAKE CONTACT
What was that just now?
A FASTBALL
YEONG-JUN SHOWS A GREAT PITCH
-Five points behind.
-Yes.
-Each out count is precious.
-Of course.
Kim Moon-h* must make sure
he hits to let Seung-yuop advance.
Right.
He hits.
He hits.
It's between the first and the second.
-It went out.
-While it rolls out…
-Go!
-Run!
PAST THE 2ND BASE!
While it rolls out,
the batter runs to second.
Lee Seung-yuop is on the third.
Two runners in scoring position.
Hey, okay.
I CAN SEE HOPE
What was that?
Yeong-jun, give him two
and take your time.
Two runners in scoring position.
RUNNERS ON 2ND, 3RD
Yeong-jun, don't get cornered.
-He's open.
-The batter today
with the best record,
who's hit a home run.
Jeong Keun-woo is at bat.
They never got five in the last inning.
-What?
-They never got five points.
You never know.
There was Choongam High School.
They won't get five points.
Keep it up to the end.
It's been so long!
Let's go, the devil. The devil.
Two runners are in scoring position.
CK Monsters only had
runners left on bases today.
HE MUST MAKE THEM RETURN
THE TROUBLESHOOTER JEONG KEUN-WOO
HE HITS!
His hit rolls out down the center.
-Okay!
-That's it!
The troubleshooter is here!
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 2 MONSTERS
SCREAMING!
Jeong Keun-woo makes
every single score of his team today.
KEUN-WOO'S TIMELY SINGLE
His first pitch was a slider.
He knew the pitcher would throw
a pitch for the count,
so he went for it.
-Great job.
-Nice.
-Jeong Keun-woo!
-That was good.
-I just ran.
-You did it.
-Who knows what'll happen?
-Who knows?
WE STILL HAVE A CHANCE!
-Good job.
-Great job out there.
The bottom of the ninth,
the essence of baseball.
The Monsters begin to score.
Hey, what now? What do I do?
They might catch up.
Timeout.
MANAGER JUNG WON-BAE IS ON THE MOUND
Yeong-jun, you can let those two go.
Just make them go out.
You need three outs.
You can let them go.
Don't mind the runners.
Just the batters, okay?
Throw with confidence.
Catcher, do a good job.
-You can relax.
-I'll go with a slider.
Ninth inning. Jeong Keun-woo hits a single
with runners on the second and third.
The score is six to two,
-four points difference.
-Yes.
And now, Lee Hong-ku is at bat.
HONG-KU, WHO HAS
A GREAT HITTING SENSE TODAY
Please. Please!
We can win from behind.
-He needs to swing in his own way.
-Yes.
He needs to decide on a slider
or a fastball
and look out for what to hit.
There were more sliders until now.
I'm 20,000 percent sure.
I think it'll be a breaking ball.
First pitch, he swings.
One strike.
That swing was disappointing
because he also knew
that it would be a slider.
Hong-ku, play as you did before.
Look high.
(I CAN HEAR EVERYTHING…)
He went for the ball
on the outside and missed.
Hit at ease.
Nice pitch.
Yeong-jun, you're well.
If he hits another single,
the tables will turn.
A favorable count for the pitcher.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 2 MONSTERS
FINAL SLIDER, STRIKEOUT
Swings and misses, strikeout.
SIGH…
That was a slider.
THAT WAS GREAT
He threw three sliders in a row.
A slider.
I knew it'd be 20,000 percent a slider.
(SURE, SURE)
Jeon Yeong-jun quickly strikes him out
while he's in a crisis.
I'll switch him.
Umpire, pinch hitter.
And right now,
-Coach Jung Soo-sung is at bat.
-Yes.
It's his first time at bat as CK Monsters.
JUNG SOO-SUNG IS UP
While he played professionally,
-he was known for his contacts.
-Of course.
And a fast runner.
Sang-jin, he could do a sudden bunt.
-It's a hit.
-Don't even try a bunt.
It's been a while since he held a bat,
and Jeon Yeong-jun's slider is
quite sharp.
I wonder how he'll deal with him.
A strike, outer edge.
He watches the pitch.
We say sliders have a late break.
It switches at the last minute,
so it isn't easy to hit
even if you know it.
-One more.
-One more?
I can do one more.
Coach Jung's first time at bat.
He swings.
DARN IT
Let him hit. It's his first time.
Runners on the first and third.
Two outs left, but he has two strikes.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 2 MONSTERS
Jung Soo-sung.
SWINGS AND MISSES
TWO STRIKEOUTS
On the outer edge.
He missed and was struck out.
IT'S FINALLY 2 OUTS
You're so cool!
It's now two outs,
the bottom of the ninth.
And now, batter four, Jung Eui-yoon.
BATTER 4, JUNG EUI-YOON
He said he'll hit a home run
if he gets a chance.
Yeong-jun, we'll win
even if he hits a home run!
Pitch at ease.
Jung Eui-yoon, four at-bats, no hits.
Swings and misses.
He's only throwing sliders today.
HE GETS ANOTHER COUNT WITH A SLIDER
-Did it come in?
-No.
-No?
-No.
HE MUST KEEP A SHARP EYE OUT
FOR YEONG-JUN'S SLIDER
Ball.
YET ANOTHER SLIDER
EUI-YOON PICKED IT OUT WISELY
-Ball.
-Let's go!
Stay focused. Let's end this.
The count is one and one.
A low pitch. Two ba*ls, one strike.
NO SOUND, NO RESPONSE
COMPLETELY FOCUSED
-Jung Eui-yoon is playing calmly.
-Yes.
If you think about it,
this is a huge crisis.
He might end the game,
but he's keeping a good eye out.
Out of the zone.
Three ba*ls, one strike.
-And all bases loaded.
-No, please.
-He can't let him hit.
-It doesn't feel right.
Lee Taek-keun is next.
(NEXT BATTER: LEE TAEK-KEUN)
Taek-keun's home run would be nice.
Go out.
Go out.
THROWING TAEK-KEUN ON THEIR WIN
Throw a slider.
ABOUT TO CRY?
Three ba*ls, one strike.
-Jung Eui-yoon holds back.
-Good decision.
WALKS AFTER FOUR ba*ls
-Yes!
-Okay.
-You got this. We won!
-Let's go!
WE'RE FINISHED…
TROUBLED, NERVOUS, ANXIOUS, WORRIED
Jung Eui-yoon walks out
for the first time.
All bases loaded.
2 OUTS, ALL LOADED
Now, we have the situation here.
CK Monsters loaded all bases
twice before today,
but didn't make use of them.
It's not easy to load all bases
three times in a single game.
No.
It's the third time, so they must save it.
Go for a home run.
ONE HOME RUN, IT'S A TIE!
-A home run.
-Let's do it.
Cheong-yong, to the line.
PLEASE, WE NEED THIS
Yeong-jun, nothing vague.
Yeong-jun, don't let it go. Just pitch.
Six to two, four points behind.
There are three batters.
He hits the first pitch.
STRONG TAEK-KEUN
THE FIRST HARD HIT
He goes for the first pitch.
GROANS…
The catcher should do a check.
(HE FREEZES TOO)
-Good, doing well!
-Just hit it!
Just one single.
ON THE EDGE, BALL
Great job resisting.
-He pulls the bat back.
-Great job resisting.
Chan-hui.
URGENT
Chan-hui.
(A SIGN TO HOLD RUNNERS IN CHECK)
(GET READY FOR 1ST BASE CHECK)
Eui-yoon.
Soo-hyun, the catcher will throw.
Tell him to get ready.
Yes.
Reduce the lead. First base.
He might hold a check.
You won't, right?
(NODS)
Relax and throw.
HE HOLDS THE 1ST BASE IN CHECK
Hold first base in check.
But he comes back.
SAFE
(LAUGHS)
You said you wouldn't.
But I got a sign.
He tells Kim Sang-jin
not to hold him in check.
-But they're fully loaded.
-Exactly.
The first base is rarely checked
-when all bases are loaded.
-Right.
Hey, don't do anything weird.
Good, that caught them off guard.
Stay focused.
The count is one and one.
The third pitch lands on the edge.
But it's a ball.
WASN'T IT A STRIKE?
It probably dropped low.
-I see.
-Yes.
-It was too low.
-Yes.
-It was his framing.
-It was.
-I was almost fooled.
-Yes.
(IS THAT A STRIKE?)
It's too low.
Chan-hui lifted it up,
so it looked like a strike.
(YES, RIGHT…)
We did well. What's going on in the ninth?
At two outs in the ninth.
Let it all come in the middle.
Let's drop it on the Dodram Korean Pork.
DODRAM KOREAN PORK'S BANNER
Two ba*ls, one strike.
The count is for the batter.
Jeon Yeong-jun needs a strike.
HE HITS!
-Yes!
-He did it!
-Go!
-We might win!
GOSH…
-He hit it.
-He pushes the ball far.
It drops clean on the right center.
HE BEGINS TO DASH
-Run!
-Go!
-You need to run!
-Move!
-Go!
-Keep running.
The runners return
from the third and the second.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 3 MONSTERS
-A timely double by Lee Taek-keun.
-Okay.
They gain more points.
LEE TAEK-KEUN'S TIMELY DOUBLE
-Lee Taek-keun!
-Lee Taek-keun!
LEE TAEK-KEUN IS THE BEST!
-Yes!
-Okay!
WE COMPLETELY TURNED THE TABLES
DEVASTATED
CK Monsters finally made the big inning.
The score is six to four,
right behind by two.
And now, the story changes
because the tie-breaker is
in scoring position too.
THE BOTTOM OF THE 9TH,
2 OUTS, RUNNERS ON THE 2ND AND 3RD
The best moment of baseball is
the bottom of the 9th, 2 outs.
And at this moment, standing in the box is
Ryu Hyun-in.
NERVOUS
-Make this tough!
-Focus! We're at two outs!
DRY MOUTH
This is a close game.
Show what you got!
Make it happen!
We need a single.
We just need one.
Just one.
MY SON, YOU CAN DO THIS!
This is now after two outs.
It's a very dramatic situation.
CK Monsters is here
making a drama named baseball
in the bottom of the ninth.
THE DRAMA WILL BEGIN NOW
And the batter is Ryu Hyun-in.
RYU HYUN-IN WANTS TO BE THE HERO
I wanted to hit it no matter what.
When I was in the box,
it felt like I'd make a hit.
First pitch, a ball.
Ryu Hyun-in watches the first pitch.
-Okay!
-It's too far.
Four ba*ls are great too.
After two outs? Come on.
One single will bring them all in.
A SINGLE WILL TURN THIS INTO A TIE
IF HE STOPS HIM, THE GAME IS OVER
A strike on the edge.
FASTBALL, STRIKE
His sliders keep becoming ba*ls,
so he throws a fastball
and balances the count.
Please, Hyun-in, hit it far.
(EVERYONE BEGINS TO PRAY)
A fastball. A fast one.
One ball, one strike.
THE TENSE PITCH FIGHT
Ryu Hyun-in's face changes.
Two ba*ls, one strike.
MAN… HE DIDN'T FALL FOR IT
NICE CATCH
Hyun-in, play boldly!
Boldly!
General Manager Jang Si-won
can't sit anymore.
He's expecting them to win.
VICTORY EQUALS OKINAWA!
Two ba*ls, one strike,
two outs, the bottom of the ninth.
INHA UNIVERSITY 6 : 4 MONSTERS
HYUN-IN, PLEASE
One hit, it'll be a tie.
It hits the outside. It didn't come in.
GROANING
Three ba*ls, one strike.
This is ridiculous.
EVERY PITCH MOVES THEIR EMOTIONS
If we do a tie-breaker…
We do a tie-breaker?
We do?
Three and one.
THE BEST BATTING COUNT
If it's a single, the runners will
-dash back home.
-Yes.
I don't want to be a pitcher.
End it here. I don't want to pitch.
Play boldly!
Swing it nicely!
-Hyun-in, let's go!
-Go!
Make it tough!
Don't push it in.
You can strike him out.
ONE PITCH, THERE'S NO MORE
HE HITS!
-Please.
-Please.
-He hits it above the right center.
-Please.
-He hits it above the right center.
-Please.
The center fielder follows.
But this hit becomes
a period for this game.
SHOUTING!
He caught it.
DISAPPOINTED
OH NO
The chase for CK Monsters ends here.
The final score is six to four.
WE WON!
WHAT A RELIEF
My gosh.
GOSH…
-We won!
-Okay!
-Great job!
-Smile.
-We won!
-We won!
LET'S CELEBRATE!
-Man.
-That was so close.
He wasn't struck out.
THE MONSTERS LOSE TWO GAMES
IN A ROW FOR THE FIRST TIME
Goodness, great game.
You hit well.
THEY CAN'T HIDE THEIR RELUCTANCE
-Great job.
-Great game.
-Good game.
-Good one.
LOSING ALWAYS HURTS
-Great job.
-Good game.
Great game, Seong-hoon.
They lost in the ninth,
but they turned the game very interesting.
I want to clap for them for doing that.
Yes.
CK Monsters couldn't attack smoothly,
and in the end, they couldn't reach a tie.
We'll wrap up today's broadcast here.
We were Commentator Song Jae-u
and Caster Jeong Yong-geom. Thank you.
THE MONSTERS RETURN TO THE LOCKER
THEIR FACES DISPLAY
THEIR DISAPPOINTMENT
It's a shame.
CAN'T HIDE THE SENSE OF DEFEAT
-So close.
-It was close.
It's a bit disappointing.
It was so close, Hyun-in.
Darn it.
THEY GROAN HERE AND THERE
Man.
I honestly didn't think
we were going to lose today.
I must've let my guard down.
I never imagined
we'd lose two games in a row.
I must've been too complacent
as I began to play.
This is our first game lost in a row.
We were quite gloomy.
I hate it when the team is like this.
It feels different
to lose two games in a row.
THEY BECOME GLOOMY
AT THE UNEXPECTED RESULT
MANAGER YUOP QUIETLY PACKS
HIS EQUIPMENT
THE BITTER DEFEAT HAUNTS HIM VIVIDLY
I told you that
we won't lose any games in a row.
If we lose three in a row,
It'll put everyone in trouble.
We must stop this cycle tomorrow.
-Great game.
-Great game.
MANAGER YUOP IS
IN FRESH FIGHTING SPIRIT
THE LOCKER ROOM IS IN SILENCE
NOBODY CAN SPEAK UP EASILY…
Great game. Great job today.
We played 17 games until now.
In those 17 games,
we won 13 and lost 4.
If we lose the second match,
it'll be 13 wins and 5 losses.
If we lose the next game,
it'll be 13 wins and 6 losses.
If we lose our 20th game,
our 0,700 win percentage breaks.
THE PRESSURE OF WIN PERCENTAGE
BECOMES A REALITY
Then one of us
will have to take responsibility.
ONE OF THEM MAY HAVE TO LEAVE SOON
So we must put in everything we can
for tomorrow's game,
and make sure to win.
We'll definitely win tomorrow.
Hee-kwan, I trust you.
Hee-kwan will start tomorrow.
I saved our ace so he can be
the starting pitcher tomorrow.
I hope you'll give it your all
and do your best tomorrow.
All I can think of is "victory"
for tomorrow's game.
I'll show you what Ace Yoo is made of.
Inha, get ready for a blow.
17 GAMES 13 WINS 4 LOSSES
