“It is more meaningful that we succeeded in producing regular hits than the result of consecutive hits and home runs.”
Jose Rojas (30)메이저사이트 started as the 7th hitter and left fielder in the ‘2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League’ kt Wiz match held at Suwon kt Wiz Park on the 20th.
Lohas, who was silent in the early and mid-game, emerged as the main character in the mid-to-late game. He took the lead in the top of the 6th inning, when the team was leading 3-0, and attacked the exclusion of the opponent. He kicked up his changeup and made a 4-0 runaway score with a 110m solo shot (Season No. 8) that crossed the right wall.
The true value of Lohas was demonstrated once again in the second half of the game. In the top of the 8th inning, he hit a four-seam fastball from relief pitcher Joo Kwon at first base and scored a 6-0 victory with a 105m two-run home run (Season No. 9). The final result was 4 at-bats, 2 hits (2 homers), 3 RBIs and 2 runs scored. With an explosive home run show, he played a significant role in the team’s 6-0 victory.
On this day, Lohas shot multiple homers and rose to second place in the KBO League home run alone. However, he focused more on hitting the right hit rather than hitting a home run, and was satisfied with it.

After the game, Rojas said, “It is more meaningful that I succeeded in producing hits than the result of home runs in consecutive hits. My goal in each at-bat is just hits, not home runs. It feels good,” he said, expressing his feelings about leading the team to victory.
Prior to this day, Rojas had a batting average of 0.207 (24 hits in 116 bats), 7 homers, 18 RBIs, and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.738 in 36 games. The home run and slugging percentage (0.440) are in compliance, but the lack of sophistication left some regrets.
LOHAS has been rebounding little by little lately. On the 12th, he hit 7 consecutive hits against the Jamsil KIA Tigers, and during this period he hit 5 long hits including a home run, raising his batting pace.
Rojas said, “A player’s first role is to help the team win. I feel uncomfortable and apologize to the fans for not being able to help. I will try to lead the score production by showing a good performance like today.”
Finally, Lojas expressed his gratitude for the fact that many fans came to visit him during the losing streak, saying, “I sincerely thank the Doosan fans who filled the third base stands even during the away game. Thanks to you, I gained strength.”
