As soon as the fall baseball ended, the players of the national baseball team participating in the Premier 12 held their first exhibition game as a whole.

The national team defeated Cuba, the powerhouse, and raised expectations.

I'm reporter Yang Si-chang.

Korean baseball team players gathered at Gocheok Dome.

This is the first time that all 35 players, including KIA and Samsung players who played the Korean Series, have gathered.

National team coach Ryu Joong-il's attention is by far focused on "Cheongunmanma" Kim Do-young, who lifted the trophy and joined the team the day before.

I also throw affectionate jokes about how reliable Kim Do-young, who achieved the best performance this season, is.

[Ryu Joong-il / Baseball team coach: It's reliable. This young player hits a lot of home runs and steals a lot. What's a bit unfortunate is that we talked about it earlier, but there are a lot of mistakes. Huh]
The first warm-up match against Cuba, which was held ahead of the
Premier 12 tournament, was also profitable.

Kim Do-young and Lee Ju-hyung scored RBIs in the beginning and overpowered Cuba, which was in the same group this tournament, to recharge their confidence.

Above all, it is encouraging that after starter Kwak Bin stopped two innings, seven bullpen pitchers in turn blocked each inning neatly to win the honor.

However, it remains a task to raise the sense of the game of the batters, who failed to score additional points even after sending out runners in every inning.

In addition, the search for the right person is expected to continue for the time being for No. 4 batting order, which has yet to find a clear owner.

[Kwakbin / Baseball team pitcher: It's been a month since I threw it, so I think it's a relief that I'm okay with my senses]

Although it was a warm-up match, baseball fans filled almost all the seats at Gocheok Dome and cheered enthusiastically for the national team.

The national baseball team, which won its first warm-up match, plans to focus on recovering its sense of play by playing another warm-up match against Cuba.

It's YTN Yang Si-chang.
