Ha Hyun-seung, a key player in the U-18 Asian Baseball Championship victory, donned the Kiwoom uniform as the overall number-one pick in the rookie draft, exactly as anticipated.
[I will select Kiwoom Heroes. Round 1, Overall No. 1, Busan High School pitcher and infielder Ha Hyun-seung]
After being drafted by Kiwoom as the number one overall pick, Ha Hyun-seung expressed his honest desire to surpass the record-high signing bonus of 1 billion won.

Today's "scene stealer" was the father of pitcher Park Geun-seo, who was selected by the Lotte Giants with the 4th pick.
Showing just how thrilled he was, instead of a formal acceptance speech, he made everyone laugh with a soulful verse of a song.
[I am not a sailor. I am not a sailor. I am the captain. I am the captain. I am the captain.]
