Even though the team I was fond of left, I wonder if I couldn’t bear to transfer to a rival team. Brandon Belt (35), a former star of Major League Baseball (MLB) San Francisco, joked about this after transferring.
Japanese media Nikkan Sports quoted NBC Sports on the 20th and said, “Belt threw a rather strong joke to San Francisco fans.”
Belt recently appeared on a local radio show in San Francisco and said farewell to fans who had supported him. After becoming a free agent after the end of last season, he signed a one-year contract with Toronto and started anew. 카지노
Belt, who mentioned memories of his days in San Francisco on the air, opened up about his transfer. He surprised everyone by saying, “Honestly, I wonder if I had reached the brink of signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers.”
San Francisco and the Dodgers used the same New York State as their hometown in the past, and moved to California side by side in the early 1960s. Because they have a deep-rooted rivalry, they are reluctant to transfer to each other’s team.
In fact, former San Francisco ace Tim Lincecum (39) showed a firm response when rumors of a contract with the Dodgers circulated, saying, “It is betraying myself.”
Belt also revealed a rivalry with the Dodgers, saying, “There’s no way I could do that,” and it is said that it made the studio a crucible of laughter. NBC Sports said, “If there’s anything worse than parting with Belt, who won the World Series, it would be to sign him with the Dodgers.”
Belt, who made his major league debut in 2011, played for only one team in San Francisco for 12 seasons. He played in 1310 games in his career, achieving a batting average of 0.261, 175 home runs, 584 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.814.
He was a World Series winning member in 2012 and 2014, and was an All-Star in 2016. In 2021, he showed off his slugging power by hitting 29 home runs, his personal most, despite appearing in only 97 games.
