The biggest Achilles heel of the Kia Tigers in the 2024 season was an error. It topped the list with 146 during the regular season. Kim Do-young, the best player in the 2024 season, committed 30 alone. However, Lee Bum-ho did not pay attention to this at all. Rather, he was concerned about the press that the errors put on the players. Therefore, he never ruled out the players who made the mistake.토토사이트
Lee Bum-ho, of course, often excluded players from blame. So did Kim Do-young, Na Sung-bum, Park Chan-ho, and Socrates Brito. Kim once missed a game even after hitting a home run in Daegu. The reason is not an error. It was because he made a complacent play that lacked concentration. When Kim played a run-down play during the defense against the Samsung Lions in Daegu on July 2, he threw the ball to first base without targeting his predecessor Koo Ja-wook. It was a typical bonehead play.
Coach Lee Bum-ho said on Lee Dae-ho's YouTube channel Lee Dae-ho [RE:DAEHO] on the 15th, "If you take out (the player) because of the mistake, there was no Doyoung." If Kim Do-young, who made 30 errors, was absent every time he made an error, he could not leave a huge batting performance.
Manager Lee Bum-ho said, "I think it's wrong to make a blurry mistake, but I didn't press players when it comes to making a lot of mistakes. Many people say so. KIA will collapse due to its mistakes if it goes to a big game. We made one mistake in the Korean Series. I thought we would not make mistakes if we go to the Korean Series."
Coach Lee Bum-ho continued, "Is it better not to make mistakes and play well? That's why I think so. If I exclude the kids for making a lot of mistakes, they don't have time to bat, then the team can't win if they don't bat."
This is his clear belief. Manager Lee Bum-ho said, "I don't care about mistakes. I think it can be more helpful later on because the boys know better than the game where they forget to press for mistakes. 146 are certainly a huge mistake, but they must have thought that they should cover the ball to help the players do better in other areas."
In summary, coach Lee Bum-ho said, "If a player fails to perform properly due to an error, it will be more damage to both the player and the team than the error itself." Kim Do-young performed crazy because he did not press the error.
Of course, coach Lee Bum-ho agrees that the number of errors should be reduced. There is a possibility that the team will focus on defensive exercises at the Irvine and Okinawa spring camps. If the number of errors is reduced to only two-thirds of the level of last year, Kia's winning rate can further increase.
