SSG Landers Choo Shin-soo's demonstration match between SSG and NC Dinos, which was about to become a Korean professional baseball debut, was canceled due to rain.
After the game was canceled, SSG coach Kim Won-hyeong explained Choo Shin-soo's condition wrapped in a veil and said, "The weight of Choo Shin-soo's bat exceeded 1 kilogram."
After the interview with the manager, Shin-soo Choo appeared in the interview room with two bats and explained, "I use a 992ｇ bat in practice and an 893ｇ bat in games."
"There is an expectation that the swing speed will increase if you practice with a heavy bat and hit it with a light one in the game."
