The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) is at a loss as SSG appointed Park Jeong-tae, a three-time drunk driver, as its second-tier coach by exploiting loopholes in regulations. It is considering future measures.메이저놀이터

SSG announced on December 31 that former Lotte coach Park Jung-tae was appointed as the head coach of Futures. Park Jung-tae got on the bus after a quarrel with a city bus driver while parking on the road while intoxicated in January 2019, and was booked for a dangerous act of obstructing the driver by holding the steering wheel when the bus driver left the vehicle. For this reason, he was sentenced to one and a half years in prison and three years of probation. At that time, it was revealed that he was caught drunk driving twice more during the trial. It is equivalent to KBO's "Three-strikeout."

On June 3, 2022, the KBO announced a revised regulation on sanctions against drunk driving. Based on blood alcohol concentration, suspension of a copyright is a 70-game suspension, cancellation of a copyright is a one-year disqualification, five-year disqualification when caught twice, and permanent disqualification when caught third time. When Kiwoom attempted to bring Kang back in March that year, it blocked Kang with the strong will of KBO President Hu Jie-yeon, who had just taken office, and created a kind of "Kang Jung-ho rule."

In the case of Park Jung-tae, if the current KBO regulations are applied, he is subject to permanent disqualification. However, all three cases of detection were before the revision of the KBO regulations. Once as an active coach, he resigned twice, including the 2019 incident. At the time of the revision of the regulations, the KBO said, "The number of drunk driving will be calculated after September 11, 2018, when the KBO first established a weighted sanction rule for each number of drunk driving." Of Park Jung-tae's three cases, the 2019 case in which he had a dispute with a bus driver was considered due to timing, but it is difficult for the KBO to take disciplinary action because he was not a member of the KBO at the time, and this is also applied retroactively.

The SSG club said it was "aware" of the fact that it was caught drunk driving three times after appointing new Futures coach Park Jung-tae.

It is clear that the KBO has stepped up its DUI sanctions. The move is aimed at making everyone aware of the seriousness of DUI, which has become increasingly heavy in society, and act responsibly as a member of the professional baseball league. SSG is a member of the KBO league. Recognizing this intent and agreeing to the decision at the time, the club casually appointed the head coach of the second division even after learning that it had been caught drunk driving three times. It has been confirmed that the team did not even ask the KBO about the matter during the appointment process.

A KBO official said, "We clearly believe there is a problem with SSG's behavior," adding, "We have concerns about whether it is right to apply the regulations retroactively. If it is difficult to apply, I think there are some things to worry about when the formal registration application comes in. We also plan to supplement the related regulations to prevent the same case from occurring in the future."

When KBO President Hu Jie-yeon took office three years ago, he put drunk driving at the top of his list of "four things that should never be done" along with match fixing, sex crimes, and drug use. His first move since taking office was this "no-four-dollar policy." In particular, he has maintained a firm stance on DUI among all players and members.
