Last season, Na Sung-bum (36) of the Kia Tigers played in and out of cold baths and hot baths. He lifted his second combined championship trophy in his career, but played in 102 games during the regular season due to injury. "This year will be a rebounding year," said Na Sung-bum, who recently departed for Irvine, California, the U.S., where his spring camp is located. "I hope that I will do well and play a big role in helping his team win its second consecutive championship."스포츠토토

He focused on individual training throughout the winter. "I think I prepared well," Na said, expressing satisfaction, "I invested a lot in my workout sessions except for events and personal schedules. I think things went well as planned." Na Sung-bum is a slugger who represents the KBO League with 272 home runs. He ranks ninth in overall batting average of 0.314, at least 3,000 at-bats. He is a slugger who combines precision and strength, and has played an average of 80 games (58 games in the 2023 season) due to lower body injuries in his thighs for the past two consecutive seasons. Managing one's body is all the more important.

"I'm thinking of playing as close as possible (this season). I don't know if the manager adjusts (the playing time), but I'll play as many games as possible and be of help to the team," Na said. Kia gave up renewing its contract with outfielder Socrates Brito and recruited infielder Patrick Wisdom. Na's role has become more important as it has to fill the three outfield positions with domestic players. He needs to maintain balance. "I think we can play well enough (with) outfield players for a season. I don't think we will be weakened just because Socrates is absent," he said. "We will prepare hard from the training to become stronger."

Kia Tigers coach Lee Bum-ho is agonizing over building a central lineup. He has yet to decide how to set up a clean-up trio to fix Kim Do-young's batting order as No. 3 and support him. "I always feel comfortable when there are many fast-paced players out in front of me. I hope so because it's convenient for them to stick together (to check the stolen base). The coach will take care of himself," Na said.

Na Sung-bum knows better than anyone else that it is difficult to lose two consecutive games. Coincidentally, the unified championship team's performance the following year was not good. "I think we need to prepare more than last year," he said with force.
