Ruben Cardinez is leading the Kiwoom Heroes offense with his performance like an RBI machine at the beginning of the season. He has recorded RBIs in all seven games he has played since the opening of the season. He is tied for first in this category along with Kim Jae-hwan (Doosan Bears) in 2020.토토사이트

During the period, he is the lone top RBI player with a total of 16 RBIs. In particular, he was responsible for two of the three points recorded by Kiwoom in the game against SSG Landers on the 29th. If it wasn't for Cardinez's solo home run and timely hit, it would have been difficult for Kiwoom to beat SSG on the day. Kiwoom has won four consecutive games and jumped to the second place in the league.

Besides RBIs, Cardinez has displayed outstanding pitching capability this season. He has a batting average of 0.440, on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) of three homers, or 1.355. He has displayed impressions by ranking fourth in the batting average, tying for second in homers, and second in the OPS.

So far, Kiwoom has been displaying a winning move. Kiwoom signed a 600,000-dollar contract (option of 150,000 dollars) deal with Cardinez, who joined the Samsung Lions as a substitute for the foreign player during the last season but was kicked out due to side pain.

As long as he is healthy, he thought his offense was the best in the KBO. He played in just seven games for Samsung, but displayed considerable presence during that period with a batting average of 0.333, two homers, five RBIs and an OPS of 1.027. Among them was a mega home run with a flying distance of 140 meters.

Kiwoom placed Kadinez in the third batting order. He expected to play the role of a troubleshooter.

Cardinez completed the mission with 120 percent of capacity. Immediately after the season opener, Cardinez said, "I'm in good physical condition right now. I'm so happy to be able to play in the KBO again. I want to show fans how I can perform throughout the season. I will show my best in front of Kiwoom fans." So far, I have faithfully kept that promise.
