Park Chan-ho’s “No Hitter”

» by GI Korea in: Quick Links

For the love of God can some one please tell the Chosun Ilbo that pitching three scoreless innings in a spring training game against the Baltimore Orioles of all teams is not considered a no hitter.

    Sigh.

    Once I asked my conversation class, “Who do you think is the greatest athlete in the entire history of sports?”

    Naively, I was expecting names like Tiger Woods, Muhammad Ali, Pele, Maradona, Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Roger Federer or Babe Ruth, and a lively discussion of the very nature of greatness.

    My students’ answers were: Park TaeHwan (who’s seventeen), and (drumroll please. . . ) Park Jisung, who doesn’t even start for his own team. . . “but he works hard.”

    Nothing against either of them, but I was a little surprised to find a (very good but still a) sub and a seventeen-year-old on my list of candidates.

    I weighed the idea of putting forward a case for Ichiro Suzuki, just to be a prig, and changed the subject instead.

    Sigh. Move on, nothin’ to see here.

    Look on the bright side, at least they didn’t say BH Kim or even better Michelle Wie.
