KIA Ace Nail praised even by the enemy general… “Better than a sweeper or pedi.”
Fantastic comeback in two consecutive games… Nail “I’ve been polishing my sweeper since last year”
Players with fantastic skills are praised regardless of whether they are allies or enemies.
KIA coach Lee Beom-ho and KT Wiz coach Lee Kang-cheol gave high praise to KIA Tigers’ foreign pitcher James Nail (32), who recently pitched the best in two consecutive games.
Coach Lee Beom-ho reviewed Nail’s pitching from the previous day ahead of the 2024 professional baseball game against KT Wiz held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 4th and said, “Neil is a pitcher who is a perfect fit for Korean baseball.” 카지노사이트
He added, “If you look at foreign pitchers who are usually successful in the KBO league.
“He throws a two-seam fastball to the body and a breaking ball with a large drop well, and Nail is the same,” he said.
Director Lee Kang-cheol also did not hide his true feelings when asked about nails.
Coach Lee praised Nail’s sweeper, saying, “I think Nail’s sweeper is better than Eric Peddy (former NC Dinos), who won the Most Valuable Player Award (MVP) last season,” and added, “It’s a difficult ball to hit even if you know it, so it will be quite difficult to attack.”
James Nail pitched well against the Lotte Giants on the 27th of last month, allowing 5 hits, no walks, 9 strikeouts, and 1 run in 6 innings, and pitched a perfect pitch against KT on the 4th, allowing 5 hits, no walks, 7 strikeouts, and 1 run (1 earned run) in 6 innings.
He received praise from experts and fans for effectively using the sweeper, which flies towards the body of a right-handed batter and enters the strike zone.
However, there is also homework.
He is a reliever in American professional baseball, so he needs to manage the number of pitches and allocate physical stamina.
Regarding this, manager Beom-ho Lee said, “First of all, the process of increasing the number of pitches is progressing smoothly,” and “There will be no limit to the number of pitches starting from the next game.”
Nail expressed satisfaction with his pitch the previous day.
