A Clean Sweep (최강야구)

GENUINE HARD WORK NEVER BETRAYS YOU

-I can't win if I practice just like them. -Right.

Let's say they swing 100 times.

-I'd do 100, and then 10 more. -I see.

In a month, I would've swung 300 more times.

Those numbers will accumulate,

and you'll be different from the others.

You can't beat those who work hard.

People might say, "He was really good. He still is."

He's really good,

and he wants to do well, but he can't."

"He can't really play anymore." Some might say.

I'm the youngest of the four here.

I feel like I have to take care of you.

YOO HEE-KWAN 4 MONTHS INTO RETIREMENT

and clean the spikes.

Is that right? Shouldn't the worst player do those?
