Mok Ji-hoon has been the talk of the town since before his professional debut
Mok Ji-hoon, a second-year right-hander for the NC Dinos who has been the talk of the town since before his professional debut, is sweating thickly as he aims to make the opening roster of the Futures League.
In 2011, when he was 7 years old and dreaming of becoming a baseball player, Mok Ji-hoon filmed a commercial with director Kim Sung-geun for the hot chocolate brand Mite.

After graduating from Shinil High School, he made his professional debut last year and made three appearances on the mound for the Futures, posting a 1-0 record with a 3.00 ERA.

We are training with the players in time for the live pitching in late February,” said Son. 카지노사이트 “We’re also encouraged by the fact that we’ve been injury-free. Ji-hoon Mok has been in good shape until this turn and has been doing a great job in the preparation process,” he added.

“I worked really hard in the off-season. It was my first off-season as a professional athlete, and I don’t know how other teammates prepared for the off-season, but I personally think it was a satisfactory preparation,” said Mok.
“I’ve been throwing the ball consistently and lifting weights to keep up with the competition once team training started. We couldn’t play outside due to the cold weather, so we prepared by running intensely on the treadmill,” he added.
“The team gave me a mission to prepare my body for pitching, so I came in and threw half pitches. Since the start of CAMP 2, I’ve thrown about five bullpen pitches, and so far, I’ve been able to maintain my initial velocity (late 130s to early 140s),” he said.
“My goal is to stay healthy during CAMP 2, do the things I’ve been working on, and be in the starting lineup for the start of the Futures League this season,” 토토사이트 추천 he said. “I didn’t get to pitch much last season due to injury. If I don’t get sick and do well this season, I think I will have a chance to pitch for the N team.”
Mok concluded the interview by saying, “I will try to do my best to do reinforcement exercises along with the given exercises so that I can show good form consistently.”
