Jang Jae-young, the monster rookie of the professional baseball team, is on the pitch for the first time.
Guwi was as rumored, but there was still an uneasy verse.
This is Lee Myung-no.
◀ Report ▶
Everyone’s attention was focused on just one inning.
The fastball thrown at the first batter Lee Byung-gyu hit 154 km and struck out with a big curve.
After throwing a fast ball of 153km to Park Joon-tae, he induces a ground ball and takes 2 outs.
However, the lack of experience was revealed in the confrontation with veteran Seo Gunchang.

“I think I thought,’It’s definitely a little different from the pros’ because when I threw the ball a little hard at Seo Gunchang (in the two-strike no-ball), the ball was fouled.”
With my thumb injured, I gave a walk and gave Park Byeong-ho a second fight, and then another walk was dedicated.
It was a burden to compete with my seniors in the ninth hurdle, which has been a problem since high school.

“Since I was trying to compete with my strength with a little greed, I felt a little bit unnervable. (In high school days) there were many cases where my will was done, but now I think I have to focus on precise control.
Still, the club’s expectations remain.

“I think the fastball is the most attractive. The judges (who saw the ball) also used expressions such as’The ball is powerful’ and’It’s scary’….”
Jang Jae-young is expected to remain in the 1st team as a relief pitcher as Ahn Woo-jin’s starter Gassero.

“Once I’m in the first group, my goal is to be in the first group, so I want you to look at it beautifully.”
