I'm out of breath. There's no time to rest. I just passed the first gate, and the final gate is right in front of me. It's about 10 teams that finished spring camp.스포츠토토

All 10 teams of the KBO League, which had their second practice-oriented spring camps in Japan and Taiwan, returned to Korea. After more than 40 days of heavy sweat, they left the country full of their dreams.

"The training was stronger than in the past." All the teams said in unison. This means that they need a golden holiday to relieve their fatigue. However, they have no time to rest. The family members should not give up their wishes. This is also the life of baseball players.

As the season's opening was held 15 days earlier than usual, players had less time to breathe. For this reason, the 10 teams held the second round of camp in places such as Japan and Taiwan where travel time and time difference are relatively small. For rookie or backup players who want to join the top team, an exhibition game is called the "finish line." Once they reach the finish line, they will be qualified to participate in the marathon.

This year's KBO League is small but a big change awaits. First of all, we need to boost our performance. Last year, we opened an era of 10 million spectators for the first time in the history of Korean professional sports, so we have to continue it somehow. Not only a feast of great plays on the ground, but also each player's "success story" and "failure story" stimulate fans' hearts. Requirements can be met with performance. This is why the training is so intensive.

There's another one. We need to change our habits. One notable change is the introduction of pitch clock. This rule applies to both pitchers and batters. The pitcher must complete the pitch within 20 seconds when there is no runner, and within 25 seconds when there is no runner left. The catcher needs to be in the right position with 9 seconds left and the batter needs to be in the right position with 8 seconds left.

It is not a short period of time, but when you have too many thoughts, it is extremely short. People can adapt to the situation by getting rid of the habit of leaving the batter's box or wandering around the mound. Sign exchange between batteries should be completed at once or twice to gain time to control breathing. As expected, it is a formidable task.

Teams were trained to prepare for the Peach Clock during the spring camp. Still, many people are urging them to adapt to the sport. There is a great deal of tension between the training and the games, exhibition games and the regular season. The term "time limit" is a pretty big variable because the personality is more influential than the number of years or experience.

As automated ball determination systems (ABS) and 3-foot ball determination systems are areas that even umpires have to adapt to, trial and error are inevitable even after the opening of the season. As the team prepares for the opening with various variables, it is necessary to complete virtually all inspections at exhibition games.

Confusion can occur when people think, "We have to keep pace with the season." This year, some teams have clear differences in electricity, so the early race is quite important. Even in a long-term race, teams that have to use early momentum cannot afford to waste exhibition games.

With these variables lurking, it is not the time to feel relieved to complete the spring camp. The exhibition game starts on the 8th, and each team will play about 10 games. The number of games is slightly insufficient for veterans to improve their condition.

From the head coach's point of view, the "young blood" that stood out in the camp warm-up match should also be tested, and the ability of backups to cope with unexpected situations that may occur in practice should also be examined.

Determining the entry for the opening game is important, but sorting out how to operate the so-called "full strength" starting in June is also a matter to be checked at exhibition games. At the same time, conditioning of players who were eliminated due to injury should also be carried out at the same time.

Baseball has come a long way in front of fans, but the KBO League has a sense of war. The ground is holding its breath.
