Dae-Sung Koo debuted in 1993 and remains to be going at present

2:36 AM UTC

The identify, significantly should you’re a Mets fan, is likely to be rolling over many times in your head.

Dae-Sung Koo, that sounds acquainted. Dae-Sung Koo … he pitched, proper? Dae-Sung Koo.

Oh sure, after all. Dae-Sung Koo.

“Yeah, when people look back on me, they kind of look back at that game especially,” Dae-Sung Koo informed me, by his interpreter son, Eric, in a latest Zoom name. “A lot of people do talk a lot about it.”

Yes, when a left-handed aid pitcher crushes a double to middle area off future Hall of Famer Randy Johnson in his second ever at-bat after which races house from second on a bunt, it is usually one thing value speaking about. A younger David Wright fully misplaced his thoughts within the dugout. The second is introduced up routinely on social media a couple of times or 3 times a yr.

But after that 2005 season, his lone within the large leagues, Koo seemingly disappeared from the sport. At least in America. After a 3.91 ERA and one wild baserunning experience, the Mets offered his contract again to the KBO. (It did not assist that his shoulder was injured on that day he slid into house.)

Then, just some weeks in the past — practically 18 years after that day in 2005 — a video from the Australian Baseball League began selecting up steam on Twitter. There he was once more. Dae-Sung Koo. Pitching an ideal inning. At 53 years previous.

“My left arm is still fresh,” Koo mentioned, laughing, shocked by the eye his efficiency attracted within the States.

But the place had Mr. Koo been? And how did he wind up pitching on the opposite finish of the globe in his mid-50s?

Well, it turned out that 2005 season with the Mets — that amazingly magical second with Randy Johnson — was only a small halfway level for the then 35-year-old. He had already starred for 11 years earlier than it in Korea and Japan and, when he left the Mets, he did not cease pitching. He could not cease. Instead, he took his skills again east to proceed a protracted, winding baseball-playing journey straight out of a tall tales ebook.

The lefty first joined up with Team Korea for the inaugural World Baseball Classic in ’06 — serving to his nation get to the semifinals earlier than shedding to eventual champion Japan. He allowed a complete of 1 run in eight innings popping out of the bullpen, even getting a win towards rival Japan in Round 1. Koo knew most of the Japanese hitters from a stint within the Pacific League from 2001-04 and had dominated the neighboring nation within the 2000 Olympics. His success towards them was so well-documented that his nickname grew to become “Japan-killer.”

“[The Classic] is a great event, a great competition for baseball enthusiasts,” Koo mentioned, reflecting again on his time in 2006. “It helps to unfold the love of baseball and the function of baseball in society all over the world.”

Post-Classic, Koo put up four more solid seasons for the KBO’s Hanwha Eagles, the same team he pitched for at the very beginning of his career, compiling 64 saves and a 3.35 ERA. During his first eight years with the team, he was 61-57 with 150 saves and a 2.79 ERA. After “retiring” a KBO legend, he jumped continents as soon as once more, becoming a member of up with the Australian Baseball League.

Koo had initially moved to Sydney as a result of his youngsters have been going to highschool there however, whereas he was on the town, he determined — at age 40 — that he would possibly as properly check out for the native Blue Sox workforce. He reportedly did not ask for a contract, simply that they permit him to pitch for 2 years. Koo continued his success Down Under and ended up posting a 2.15 ERA in 5 seasons, successful the league’s Reliever of the Year award twice.

“It’s tough because he’s got all the deceptions,” an opposing batter said. “And the ball comes from an angle behind his eyes – he can put the ball wherever he wants.”

At occasions, Koo confirmed some youthful fireplace at an age when most are lengthy gone and retired from enjoying professionally.

“[Koo] had a huge influence on my career,” opposing Dodgers pitcher and fellow countryman Hyun Jin Ryu mentioned on the time. “Not only that he taught me a pitch or two, but that he taught me a lot of different things as a mentor … Everything from how to stand on the mound, to how to carry myself, to the etiquette of the game.”

After his final season for the Blue Sox in 2015, Koo continued enjoying in some newbie leagues and finally ended up a pitching coach for Sydney. Still, regardless that he had a foul again, he did not rule out enjoying once more. And when he grew to become supervisor for brand new ABL workforce Geelong Korea for the 2018-19 season, he took the mound as soon as once more. He was 49.

“Most of my teammates were in their 20s or early 30s,” Koo informed me. “They were surprised at me coming back. It was unexpected.”

Most figured that will seemingly be the final time the ageless Koo would seem on an expert mound. But in actuality, for the following few years, he was biding his time and ready for the following alternative to get out on the diamond.

“If I ever got another chance, I was always practicing pitching during my free time,” Koo informed me. “In the park, just doing pitching throws.”

This winter, Geelong Korea reached out to Koo and he instantly took them up on their provide. He appeared in three video games, giving up zero earned runs and putting out two batters over 2 1/3 innings. He informed me he is misplaced about 10 mph on his fastball — it is sitting at round 75 mph — however possibly, as he informed the Korea JoongAng Daily, that helped.

“The ball was so sluggish that the batters didn’t appear to know what to do with it.”

Koo broke his personal report because the oldest man to look in an ABL recreation. He’s now performed professionally in 4 completely different a long time, he is fired fastballs for 4 completely different leagues in 4 completely different nations and three separate continents. He’s been toeing up rubbers for an unbelievable 30 years. It’s harking back to Satchel Paige’s prolonged swan track — a pitcher Koo mimicked in highschool.

He mentioned he has no plans to pitch (or hit) on this yr’s WBC, though he’ll be following Korea’s progress by Pool B. Still, he appears dead-set on by no means totally retiring, saying, “I want to show that age is not the limit of your performance.”

“My goal is pitch for as long as I can, wherever it is,” Koo informed me. “Whether it’s here, Korea — as long as I’m able to use my arm to do what I love.”
