"Did you give up on the pitcher?" Even though Choi Ji-man (32, Pittsburgh Pirates) played as a substitute and played well, he could not laugh due to his teammate's complacent play and team defeat. Choi Ji-man played as a substitute for fourth batter and first baseman Carlos Santana in the top of the eighth inning against the "2023 Major League" Cleveland Guardians at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on the 18th (Korea Standard Time) and remained silent with no hits and one strikeout. Pittsburgh lost 0-11 and fell into a four-game losing streak. He had a good sense of hitting in the second half. Choi Ji-man scored his third shot of the season and a double against the Arizona Diamondbacks on the 10th, the last game of the first half, and also shot his fourth shot of the season against the San Francisco Giants on the 15th, the first game of the second half. In the match against San Francisco on the 16th, he continued his hit streak for four consecutive games with one hit in four at-bats. However, he was excluded from the starting lineup from the match against San Francisco on the 17th. Perhaps due to the influence of left-handed Alex Wood, San Francisco's starting pitcher, right-handed hitter Santana was sent out first. Since Pittsburgh recruited left-handed hitter Choi Ji-man as a trade, U.S. media have expected Santana and Choi Ji-man to use the platoon, whose first baseman positions overlap. Choi Ji-man played as a substitute in the second half of the game and chose one walk. Cleveland starter Jabion Curry was a right-handed pitcher, but Choi Ji-man started on the bench. Pittsburgh manager Derek Shelton's choice was Santana again. Santana went 1-for-2 and walked 1-for-1 but did not contribute to scoring. Until Choi Ji-man played as a substitute, the entire Pittsburgh lineup was suffering from three hits and no runs. While Choi Ji-man was on the bench, the Pittsburgh mound collapsed without hesitation. In the top of the fourth inning, starter Queen Priest allowed a two-run shot to Ahmed Rosario and lost the first run of 0-2, and gave up one run in the top of the fifth inning and four runs in the top of the sixth inning, quickly widening to 0-7. At the top of the seventh inning, Johan Ramirez was hit by Josh Naylor with a three-point shot over the left-center wall, making it 0-9. Choi Ji-man played a good defense once in the top of the ninth inning with two outs and a full base, trailing 0-10. I wanted to stop Miles Straw's ball from losing a point by blowing up and snatching it before it escaped 1-2 minutes, but the problem was next. The response was delayed because pitcher Yeri de Los Santos did not enter the base cover of the first base immediately, and Straw eventually arrived at first base first and became safe. It was a 0-11 moment and also a lethargic moment for Pittsburgh, whose willingness to chase was dampened. Choi Ji-man entered his first and final at-bat as the leadoff hitter in the bottom of the ninth inning, but he swallowed his disappointment by striking out with a swing. <a href="https://www.sportstototop.com/""_blank" title="토토">토토</a>
