Ryu Hyun-jin, 34, ace of the Toronto Blue Jays in the US Pro Baseball Major League (MLB), continued a good fight in its own practice game.

Ryu Hyun-jin started a simulation game held at the Toronto Spring Camp facility in Dunedin, Florida on the 22nd (Korean time) and fought a no-run score for five innings. Ryu Hyun-jin threw 77 balls, gave 3 hits and 1 walk, and got 5 strikeouts. Ryu Hyun-jin won a demonstration game against the Detroit Tigers on the 16th with 4 innings and 4 strikeouts without a run.

After five days of rest, Ryu Hyun-jin had to play a demonstration game against the New York Yankees held at TD Ball Park that day if it was the rotation, but instead stood on the mound of the practice game. For the team of the same American League East Division, it seems to be a measure to prevent exposure of all power until the opening.

Toronto will have an opening match with the Yankees on April 2nd, and Ryu Hyun-jin’s start is strong. Ryu Hyun-jin is expected to control his condition by digesting about 100 pitches in 6 innings in the last game in the future. Yankees ace Garrett Cole, who is expected to face off against the opening game, struck out 8 in 5 innings against Toronto on the same day and fought with 1 goal.
