KBO's Min-Ho Kang is back at it with an even better attempt at framing a pitch in the dirt

(Clair, Michael)

If pitch framing is a skill, then trying to frame pitches that bounce in the dirt is a fantastic hobby. Though we occasionally see Major League catchers try to pull it off, no one is quite as adept at the move as the Lotte Giants' Min-Ho Kang. 
After attempting the feat earlier his year -- when he didn't get the call -- Kang was back at it. This pitch was even better as it was to his backhand, making the pull toward the strike zone even less natural than the last try: 

One day, Kang will get the call from an umpire that was momentarily distracted, and all this practice will pay off.
