Yang Eui-ji Is Back, Should I Break Lee Seung-yeop's Record
As a result, Yang Eui-ji, who won his ninth Golden Glove, may match Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop's record of winning the most awards in the KBO league 10 times if he receives one more time in the future, and may write a new record of winning the most awards depending on his performance after that.
The award also broke Kang Min-ho's record of winning the most Golden Glove catchers, beating Kim Dong-soo.
Yang Eui-ji, who made his debut with Doosan in 2006, overcame a long period of obscurity and belatedly jumped to the starting lineup, but blossomed into baseball's life more splendidly than anyone else. He grew from Doosan to a catcher representing the KBO League, and moved to the NC Dinos in 2019 to lead to his first Korean Series victory.
In recognition of his performance, he won the Golden Glove every year from 2014 to 2016 and again from 2018 to 2022.
Yang Eui-ji, who became a free agent for the second time this year, made a surprise comeback to Doosan Bears as a friendly team for the first time in four years. He played 129 games with a batting average of 0.305, 17 homers and 68 RBIs, leading the team in both offense and defense.
And he led Doosan to advance to the postseason by moving up to fifth, which fell to ninth place in the regular league last year.
Pedi, the "triple pitcher" who goes to Major League Baseball, wears golden gloves
The Golden Glove in the pitcher category was won by NC foreign pitcher Eric Peddy, who achieved the "Triple Crown" by ranking first in the multiple wins, ERA, and strikeouts with 20 wins, 6 losses and 2.00 strikeouts.
With his stellar performance in the KBO League, Pedi is on the verge of returning to the U.S. Major League Baseball.
Austin Dean, a foreign hitter who led LG to the Korean Series championship for the first time in 29 years, won the first baseman's prize. Austin, in particular, won 271 votes to 93.1 percent of the vote, earning the honor of the most votes earned by the Golden Glove this year.
Oh Ji-hwan, the "captain" who led LG to the championship, also won the shortstop category, beating Park Chan-ho of the KIA Tigers.
In addition, Kim Hye-jeong of the Kiwoom Heroes was selected for the second baseman category, and Noh Si-hwan of the Hanwha Eagles was selected for the third baseman category. Noh Si-hwan, who had 31 home runs and 101 RBIs this year, enjoyed the excitement of his first career award.
LG Hong Chang-ki, Samsung Koo Ja-wook and NC Park Kun-woo received the outfielder category, while NC Son Ah-seop, who became the batting champion, won the Golden Glove in the designated hitter category.
