This is the explanation of Doosan Bears batting coach Park Seok-min. Foreign batter Jake Cave is being reborn as a lucky foreign hitter.스포츠토토

As recently as last weekend, Cave had high concerns. He hit 45 home runs in the U.S. Major League Baseball, but he had no hits in eight times at bat in the opening two consecutive games. He remained silent on the chance and failed to play the role of cleanup hitter. Although he just played two games, he also had high expectations for his stellar career in the ML, which raised concerns.

However, this was unfortunate. He reported his first hit with a double at the match against the KT Wiz in Suwon on Saturday, and he also had a hit at his second at-bat in the third inning to post his first RBI. Before the game, Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop said, "He probably had time to understand Korean baseball as he was attacked (in the opening two consecutive games)," adding, "I will be waiting for his revival." On the same day, he met expectations and flapped his wings.

The sense of hit that survived continued the next day (26th). He also had multiple hits and RBIs on the day. He garnered a double and hit an RBI single from his first at bat in the first inning, and hit an infield single in the sixth inning to pave the way for his team's 3-2 come-from-behind victory. After the game, manager Lee Seung-yeop said, "Cave hit an RBI single every important moment," expressing satisfaction.

What has changed from the opening two games in a row? "The timing has changed," Cave said. "Even if I am out, it is important to hit at my own timing and create a long hit," Cave said. "I did not worry too much about the two games as no hit is common."

However, this good batting sense did not come for nothing. He constantly asked questions and gritted his teeth. He might have been complacent about his stellar career in 523 MLB games, but Cave made up for the problems by actively communicating with batting coaches Park Seok-min and Lee Young-soo. In fact, a video clip of Cave asking Park Seok-min for advice on the Doosan Bears' YouTube channel became a hot topic of conversation. As such, Cave was passionate.

Coach Park Seok-min was also inspired by this passion. When Cave hit a double against KT in Suwon on the 25th, coach Park Seok-min rushed out of the dugout with more joy than anyone else. He was also seen clapping for Cave. He was sincere about Cave's success.

Coach Park Seok-min, whom we met after the game on Wednesday, said, "Cave needs to revive. That way, our team will run smoothly," adding, "I think Dave will do well." We looked forward to his performance.

"He is a very professional player. I hope Korean players can see and learn from him," coach Park praised Cave. "Look at him running the base after he hits the ball. He runs really hard. He has a very good mind," Park said. "I hope those players do well and stay in the Korean stage for a long time. It is also important that players can see and learn from him. I hope he does well."

He finally started the engine. "Bears' fans' support is amazing. This gives me great strength in the ground," Cave said, renewing his commitment by saying, "I will continue to win consecutive games by preparing well for tomorrow's game."
