Noh Si-hwan had a proud year that he was satisfied with. He played 131 games in the 2023 season and recorded a batting average of 0.298 to 153 hits, 31 homers and 101 RBIs overall (OPS) of 0.929, ranking the homerun king and the RBI king.
Noh Si-hwan, who marked the national team’s first national team in the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games and the 2023 Asian Professional Baseball Championship, showed his presence by playing as the fourth hitter for the Korean team. He won the gold medal at the Asian Games.
Noh Si-hwan was recognized as the best hitter in the 2023 season by his seniors. He won the Best Batter Award at the 2023 Korea Professional Baseball Retired Player Day organized by the Korea Professional Baseball Association (KBO) held at Hotel Rivera Cheongdam Versailles Hall in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 7th. 메이저 토토사이트
Roh Si-hwan, whom I met after the ceremony, said, “I’m happy because I received many awards recently. I feel like I’m running out of awards, but I’m always expressing my gratitude. I’m happy and I’m so happy even though I’m busy these days.”
At the awards ceremony held on the 4th, a pleasant war of words between Noh Si-hwan and Son Ah-seop drew attention. At the 2023 Daily Sports and Choa Pharmaceutical Professional Baseball Awards, Noh Si-hwan made a playful provocation, saying that Son Ah-seop should be nervous when targeting the batting king. In response, Son Ah-seop responded, “(No) Si-hwan made provocations at other award ceremonies. I want to tell him that he can’t beat me in this life.”
Noh Si-hwan said, “I can’t compete with you now. You have an amazing record. I’m 12 years old with my senior, but I have to see what happens in 12 years. When I become your senior later, I’ll talk about it again.”
Noh Si-hwan, who usually talks with Son about baseball, also showed his respect. “Son Ah-seop talks about baseball a lot. He talks about baseball a lot, but he is a genius. When asked what kind of thoughts he has in his batter’s box, he has his own batting zone. But he often looks at the ball and hits the ball. I think he has great genius and talent,” he said.
“I am an effort type, not a genius. I have grown little by little. I learned a lot about setting my own batting zone when Washington coach Johnny was in the team,” he said.
“I remember the process I prepared during the last off-season. I’m going to prepare similarly this time because my performance this year was good. As I grow every year, I’m confident that I’ll be able to achieve better performance next year than this year. I’ll prepare well,” Noh said.
