Latest in K-sports

It's time now for the latest in the world of K-sports, we have updates on the KBO, Korean players in the major and minor leagues as well as golf news. For all of that, we have our sportscaster Jason Lee in the studio. Hello Jason!

Q1. Jason, you said before that the LG Twins have been the hot team in the early going so far this KBO season I understand they also made history with a No-Hitter tell us more

That's right! 4 members of the LG Twins combined for a no-hitter as the first place Twins blanked the Samsung Lions 3-0 on Tuesday. Elieser Hernandez started things off pitching 6-innings without a hit. He was followed by Kim Jin-Sung, Park Myung-Geun and Jang Hyun-Sik, who each threw a hitless inning each.That's just the 4th time EVER that we've seen a combined No-Hitter. And the one question that'll never get answered is could Hernandez have completed the No-Hitter himself?

He was removed after 6 innings of work despite throwing just 79 pitches due to a cramp in his right thigh.

The perfect game was ruined when Hernandez hit Lee Jae-Hyeon with a pitch in the 6th.

Q2. Now Hernandez isn't the only pitcher off to a great start so far James Naile is also making headlines

Yeah, James Naile had the best ERA last year, but missed the last month of the regular season allowing Kyle Hart to pass him in Wins and Strikeouts,but he's picked up right where he left off. He's allowed just 1 run in 31-innings that's a ridiculous 0.29 ERA the Kia Tigers haven't given him much run support so he only has 2-wins, but he is off to a great start.

Last year with a month left in the regular season, he took a ball off the chin and that broke his jaw so he missed the last month. Had he not missed that last month, I think there's a good chance that he would've won the Choi Dong-Won award for best KBO pitcher but instead that went to Kyle Hart who played the full season. Naile showing early that last year wasn't a fluke.

Q3. Speaking of players on hot starts, let's talk about "the Son of the Wind" or to be exact "the Grandson of the Wind" I hear Lee Jung-Hoo has been RED Hot lately in Major League Baseball

Q4. How about Kim Hye-Seong? He's in the minor leagues, but I heard he's been playing well lately

Q5. The biggest event in golf is the Masters, which just wrapped up last weekend and while it wasn't WON by a Korean, it was not a bad finish for Im Sung-Jae .

That's right Rory McIlroy clearly stole the headlines by completing the career Grand Slam after winning the Masters for the first time but a great tournament overall for Im Sung-Jae. He fired a final round 3-under-69 to finish 7-under for the tournament. That tied him with Bryson DeChambeau for 5th place it also earned him just under $800,000 so he should shoot up the rankings soon. 2 other Koreans participated in the event and both made the cut. Byeong Hun An tied for 21st at 2-under overall while Tom Kim tied for 52nd.

Q6. Also the much talked about LIV Golf will be coming to Korea for the first time in just two weeks time right?

That's right, the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club in Incheon will be hosting the event starting May 2nd. Of course LIV Golf has been very controversial because they're competing with the PGA. But the reality is they're bringing some of the biggest names in golf to Korea very soon. Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau, Sergio Garcia, Phil Mickelson, John Rahm and of course Kevin Na will be among the local fan favourites captaining the Iron Heads team.

Thank you for all the updates Jason, have a great weekend.

Thank you Bella! We'll see you next week.
