Director Roberts and Ryu Hyun-jin send greetings to reporters in Seoul and Busan.
Coach Roberts watching training
The phone call between Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha Eagles) has not yet taken place.
They expressed their longing for each other through reporters in Seoul and Busan, but their voices were not heard.
When Coach Roberts heard from Korean reporters that “Ryu Hyun-jin says he doesn’t know Coach Roberts’ phone number” ahead of the warm-up match against the Korean national baseball team held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 18th, he cheerfully said, “I’ll have to give Ryu Hyun-jin my phone number.” I laughed bitterly.
He added, “My numbers are Seven (7), Six (6), and Zero (0),” and the press conference room was filled with laughter. 카지노사이트
On the 17th, Director Roberts jokingly said, “I haven’t contacted Ryu Hyun-jin yet, but I really want to meet him,” and added, “If you see this article, please contact me.”
He also recalled, “Ryu Hyun-jin was a great pitcher, a good teammate, and a fun friend.”
Ryu Hyun-jin pitching
Coach Roberts took over as Dodgers head coach in 2016 and worked with Ryu Hyun-jin for four seasons.
Coach Roberts has used Hyun-Jin Ryu since 2017 after he recovered from injury, and Hyun-Jin Ryu lived up to Coach Roberts’ trust by posting outstanding records of 14 wins, 5 losses, and an ERA of 2.32 in 2019.
Coach Roberts, who usually gets along with his players without hesitation, also maintained a close relationship with Ryu Hyun-jin.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who played in the U.S. Major League Baseball (MLB) for 11 years (2013-2023), returned to Hanwha this year.
On the 17th, when Coach Roberts reminisced with Ryu Hyun-jin in Seoul, Ryu Hyun-jin took the mound in a KBO exhibition game against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan.
After checking the article about Coach Roberts after the Lotte game, Ryu Hyun-jin jokingly said, “I need to contact you, but I don’t know Coach Roberts’ phone number. I’ll have to look into it.”
A day later, Director Roberts visited Gocheok Dome to check Ryu Hyun-jin’s reaction and cheerfully responded, “I’ll give you my phone number.”
Although it is difficult to meet Ryu Hyun-jin, Coach Roberts is enjoying his time in Korea.
He said, “I toured old palaces in Korea and visited traditional markets,” and “Today, I am playing against the Korean national team. I am having a great time in many ways, receiving the hospitality of Koreans.” 토토사이트 순위
