"A sense of responsibility, players should reflect on themselves..." Nine head coaches met, including the acting coach, and Jeon Jun-woo failed to raise his head again
Lotte Giants' Jeon Joon-woo is playing the rest of the season with a heavy heart this year. It is because there was another change of the head coach. This time, he is not wearing the captain's armband, but as an old man, he should take the lead in encouraging his players.

As Larry Sutton voluntarily resigned on the 28th of last month due to health reasons, acting coach Lee Jong-un, who was the senior coach, will lead the rest of the game.

Jeon Joon-woo has had to go through numerous coaches since joining Lotte in 2008 as the 15th pick in the second round. It has been 15 seasons this year, with nine coaches including the acting coach.

Starting with Jerry Royster at the time of joining the team, he met a total of seven coaches as head coaches, including Yang Seung-ho (2011-2012), Kim Si-jin (2013-2014), Cho Won-woo (2016-2018), Yang Sang-moon (2019), Heo Moon-hoe (2020-2021) and Sutton (2021-2023). After Yang Sang-moon resigned, there are eight players, including acting coach Gong Pil-sung, who led the team for a while. When acting head coach Lee Jong-un led the team, Jeon Jun-woo did not meet him because he served at the National Police Agency, but he became a priest this year. Including acting coach Lee Jong-un, there are nine members.

As such, it is not unusual for him to change the head coach. I've already experienced a lot. Still, every time I say goodbye, it hurts and it's hard. I'm also very sorry. 바카라사이트

Jeon Jun-woo said, "The players should have done well, but that's too bad. "If the players perform well and keep winning, it is natural for the coach to do it for a long time, but I am so sorry that I cannot do it like this again," he said. "I feel a lot of responsibility. "I think the players should reflect on themselves and play the game with good performance because (the coach) changes so often," he stressed.

Acting head coach Lee Jong-un hopes the seniors will take the lead.

Jun-woo Jeon also heard this story. "I think it's time to do that. The team can do well only with young players, but in a way, I think he said so because he thought he needed veteran experience. I will lead by example," he vowed.

In the game on the 31st, Jeon Joon-woo hit a two-run triple in the third inning, which helped his team win. This is the result of hitting a fastball after a full count match with Hanwha starter Lee Tae-yang.

"I think it's very fortunate to end the losing streak. You don't know how the game will go until you win. Last week, there was a game that was won and lost from behind. So I think it was a good result that I focused until the end," he said with joy.

Now Lotte has 35 games left. It is still five games behind fifth-place KIA. But I can't give up.

Jeon Jun-woo said, "It's not over until it's over. It is not a stage to give up. I'm going to improve my condition and play well. I will do my best," he said.
