After completing the training, he answered numerous questions sincerely, giving them dreams and hopes.

Bae is a former member of the Youngnam Little Baseball Team, the predecessor of the B Little Baseball Team in northern Daegu. "Ji-hwan has been different since he was young," said Kwon Jae-hyun, manager of the B Little Baseball Team in northern Daegu. "Usually, kids find it difficult to become a coach, but Ji-hwan had extraordinary passion and attitude toward baseball, asking them to throw batting balls themselves even after training," he said. "I hope this is a time when kids can learn from me. I am grateful to Ji-hwan for coming despite his busy schedule."

"It was my first time to see a player playing in the Major League. They talked to me a lot and played jokes on me. I want to play in the Major League like Bae Ji-hwan in the future," said a player who joined the team.

"I was supposed to visit and meet again early this year, but I\'m glad that I kept my promise. I have more new friends now. I felt great to see them enjoying baseball more than ever," Bae said with a smile.

"I dreamed of seeing my seniors playing in the Major League when I was young, but it feels new to see my young friends now. I hope that the friends I met this time will grow up well and become good players with a challenge," he said.

Bae made his big league debut last year after joining the Pittsburgh Pirates. He played only 10 games in his first year. He had a batting average of 0.333 (11 hits in 33 times at bat) with six RBIs and three steals.    메이저
