Lee Seung-yeop’s home run will be canceled this season. Lee hit a total of 467 home runs until his retirement as a member of the Samsung Lions in 2017. Back then, many predicted that it would not be easy for a player who could break this record to come out. One player who could challenge was Choi Jeong (37) of the SSG. He hit 40 home runs in 2016 and 46 in 2017, and 271 home runs in total through 2017. Expectations were high that Lee would be able to break Lee’s record if he continued to run without injury, but Choi Jeong actually hit more than 25 home runs every year. 토토사이트 순위
He also hit 29 homers last year to 458, now approaching 467 by just nine. If he hits 10 homers this year, he will set a new career homerun record with 468th in the KBO League. Choi Jung, who started with one homer in 2005, will set a new milestone in his 20th year.
Lee also had the record of most runs and most RBIs in his career, but he was already in second place last year. Choi Jeong scored 94 points last year to 1,368 in total, topping Lee’s 1,355 runs. Lee also topped the list in overall RBIs with 1,498 runs through 2022. Choi Hyung-woo of KIA came in second with 1,461 runs. Choi had 81 runs last year, exceeding Lee’s record of 1,500 runs for the first time, with 1,542 runs batted in.
Still, Lee is still named as the manager for most home runs in a season. His record of 56 in 2003 is still unbroken. Lee also hit the second highest number of home runs in the season with 54 in 1999. Only three players in the KBO League have hit more than 50 home runs in a season: Lee, Shim Jeong-soo (retired) and Park Byung-ho (KT). Since Park hit 52 in 2014 and 53 in 2015, no one has hit the 50 list.
