“I don’t need to show the ball to the opposing teams
It would have been nice if Autumn was more together.”
Ryu Hyun-jin (Toronto Blue Jays, photo) adjusted his senses in his own blue-and-white match instead of starting the demonstration game in the major league of American professional baseball.
On the morning of the 11th (Korean time) on the morning of the 11th (Korean time), Ryu threw 50 balls in 3 innings against the main batters in the Toronto Blue White Game held at TD Ball Park, home of Dunedin, Florida. Ryu Hyun-jin threw an additional 15 balls from the bullpen after finishing the Cheongbaek match.
Ryu Hyun-jin is scheduled to be selected for the opening game of the major league, which will be held on April 2. The opening game partner is the New York Yankees.
Ryu Hyun-jin said after the Cheongbaek fight, “We finished well as planned and prepared, and we have increased the number of pitches and pitching innings compared to the previous start,” and said, “We have to raise the number of pitches to 100 in the spring camp.” Ryu Hyun-jin added, “It is desirable to start the season by throwing up to 6-7 innings in the spring camp.” Ryu Hyun-jin said, “It is the most important thing to throw the ball that I can throw in the course I want.” “Last year, the spring camp was halted due to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19), and there was difficulty in making the body afterwards. I couldn’t, but this year (preparation for the season) is going well.”
Ryu Hyun-jin made his first demonstration game on the 6th of this year and threw 30 balls in two innings against the Baltimore Orioles hitting line, leaving one hit (one home run), one walk, two strikeouts, and one run. Toronto also played a demonstration game with the Baltimore Orioles on that day, but Ryu Hyun-jin did not appear. Ryu Hyun-jin said, “I don’t think there is a need to show a lot of things to the team in the same district (my condition, pitch, etc. before the season). During the spring camp, I focus on increasing the number of pitches and innings.”
Choo Shin-soo, who played an active part with Ryu Hyun-jin in the big leagues so far, transferred to the Korean professional baseball SSG.
Ryu Hyun-jin said, “(Cho Shin-soo in Korea) will be the most senior, but there will be a part to adapt to Korean baseball as soon as possible.” “I wish we had been here for a few more years.”
