Major League Baseball (MLB) is making every effort to shorten the duration of games. As is well known, after introducing Pitch Clock, the average duration of games during the regular season decreased to about 2 hours and 39 minutes. Considering that the long running time of the movie is around 150 minutes, it is a bit similar.
Watching the game at Globe Life Field, the home ground of ML Texas, I felt as if I was preparing fast. There are no unnecessary moves. Neither does he proactively stick out his bat from the first pitch nor puts all the balls into the strike zone with his blade control. ML is no different in cheering after finishing a great double play or roaring after striking out a strikeout in a critical situation. I felt an inexplicable sense of thrills.
The basic skill is the factor that makes you feel that you are fast in preparation. In particular, the movement of fielders was very different from that of the KBO league. There are many fancy defense, but basically, the catch and throw movement is simple while following the ball. The speed of responding to the ball is fast, so he catches it in a stable position. After catching the ball, he throws the ball leisurely while watching the runner's movement. It is also accurate. He throws lightly but flies fast and accurately. It is not a waste of expression of being soft.
The feeling of "quick preparation" is the same for other sports. Several scenes were highlighted at the PGA Tour's byron Nelson held at TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, Texas from the 2nd to the 6th.
During the Pro-Am tournament two days before the tournament, leaderboards, shot tracking, and play information installed throughout the golf course were provided the same as those of the PGA Tour. In the Pro-Am tournament, pure amateurs play in groups with players who participate in the tournament, and it seemed unfamiliar to measure the batting and expose the score.
"An outsourced company called Shotlink collects leaderboards and tracking data. Every week, we measure data in practice rounds and pro-arm games to increase accuracy," a tour official said. They believe that eliminating errors that may occur during the competition is a "natural service."
The real value is revealed during the competition. Even if there is no live broadcast, the broadcast video is sent to the media center. The player's play is uploaded in almost real time on the website. You can watch not only shot tracking data but also play videos. It is not uncomfortable even if you do not watch the broadcast.
Having experienced the ML and PGA tours in Korea, I couldn't help but feel bitter that Korean professional sports have a long way to go in terms of industrialization. They move thoroughly within the system, from the player's mind to the support departments that make the league or tour stand out. I have a sense of professionalism.
Industrialization of professional sports seems impossible given the domestic sentiment that it is natural to use sports as a tool or to privatize an organization to strengthen one's position. The gap between Korea and the world is wider than expected.
