Dae-Sung Koo.
The name, particularly if you’re a Mets fan, might be rolling over again and again in your head.
Dae-Sung Koo, that sounds familiar. Dae-Sung Koo ... he pitched, right? Dae-Sung Koo.
Oh yes, of course. Dae-Sung Koo….
But after that 2005 season, his lone in the big leagues, Koo seemingly disappeared from the game. At least in America. After a 3.91 ERA and one wild baserunning ride, the Mets sold his contract back to the KBO. (It didn’t help that his shoulder was injured on that day he slid into home.)
Then, just a few weeks ago—nearly 18 years after that day in 2005—a video from the Australian Baseball League started picking up steam on Twitter. There he was again. Dae-Sung Koo. Pitching a perfect inning. At 53 years old.
