A match between Samsung Lions and LG Twins in the 2023 KBO League exhibition game held at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 16th. Samsung struggled against LG. Starter Yang Chang-seop pitched well, but the batting line did not break out. Jang Won-jun, who came up as the third pitcher, gave up 1 run in the 5th inning and 1 run in the 6th inning, and was dragged to 0-2.

But Samsung also had a chance. The bottom of the 6th was the start. Ja-wook Koo got a walk. Then Jose Pirella at bat. Pirella hit a big ball to the right against Jin Hae-soo. Ja-wook Koo ran, and Pirella also ran. It looked like he would be on second base, but Pirella kept running. He settled at third base. It was Pirella’s first hit in an exhibition game.안전놀이터

And Oh Jae-il’s center fielder’s floating ball came out. Pirella sprinted home from third base. He slid and blew his body so much that his helmet came off. Samsung coach Park Jin-man applauded Pirella, who scored two points, as he stepped on the home plate.

When Pirella’s one-man show came out, Samsung fans who visited ‘Rapac’ cheered and applauded Pirella.

it’s a test match Preparing for the regular season. He could have saved up for the season, but Pirella didn’t. As if it was the season, I ran and ran as best as I could.

Pirella enters the third year of his Korean season. He played 140 games in the 2021 season, his first season in Korea, and made a big success with a batting average of 0.286, 158 hits, 29 homers, 97 RBIs and 102 points.

His last season was even more dazzling. He played 141 games and recorded a batting average of 0.342, 192 hits, 28 homers, 109 RBIs, 102 runs, an on-base percentage of 0.411, and a slugging percentage of 0.565. He ranked second in batting average, most hits, home runs, RBIs, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage, and became the league’s only scorer with three-digit runs scored. Along with Lee Jung-hoo (Kiwoom Heroes) and Na Seong-beom (KIA Tigers), he was named in the Golden Glove outfielder category.

As a result, Samsung signed with Pirella for a maximum total of $1.7 million ($100,000 down payment, $1.2 million annual salary, $400,000 in incentives), an increase of $500,000 from the previous year.

It is a Pirella with hot performance, always running base play that does not spare the body, sincerity, and baseball ability.
