Ace Pitchers to Face Off in JTBC's 'Strongest Baseball' Episode 97
On September 2nd (Monday) at 10:30 PM, JTBC's entertainment program 'Strongest Baseball' will air its 97th episode, where the Strongest Monsters will bring out their secret weapon to break their losing streak.
Yonsei University will also pressure the Monsters by starting one of the top pitchers in the college league. Yonsei's left-handed pitcher Kang Min-gu, who struck out 'Imstar' Im Sang-woo twice, is considered an ace among aces. Lee Taek-geun, who presented the power analysis results, said, 'It's really hard to hit,' and Im Sang-woo, who faced Kang Min-gu, also warned, 'The slider angle is good.'
However, the Monsters, filled with 'Korea University pride,' expressed strong confidence, saying, 'It's a style that's easy to time,' and 'It's too ordinary. It's a form that's just right for hitting.' The anticipation builds as to how the Monsters, who confidently declared 'defeat Yonsei's starting pitcher,' will perform in the live game.
Meanwhile, as the Strongest Monsters gear up with a determination to win, another 'Strongest Politics' issue arises. Captain Park Yong-taek sent a personal text message to Coach Kim Sung-geun, including a video of his batting practice. Coach Kim Sung-geun, known as 'Yashin,' responded to Park Yong-taek's message. Curiosity grows about what Coach Kim's reply to Park Yong-taek's effort will be.
In the Monsters' locker room, laughter and schemes (?) bloom, but a red flag appears regarding the health of 'Monsters' No. 4 hitter' Lee Dae-ho. After a grueling 5-hour and 30-minute battle with the independent league representative team, Lee Dae-ho complained of pain, raising concerns about injuries. This heightens the anticipation for the broadcast as fans wonder how the Monsters will overcome this crisis.
The prideful duel between the ace starters of both teams, amidst the injury of 'Monsters' pillar' Lee Dae-ho, can be seen in the 97th episode of JTBC's entertainment program 'Strongest Baseball,' airing on September 2nd, Monday at 10:30 PM.
