Seo Jin-yong, the first ‘30 blown saves’, made 4 blown saves in the last 8 games
SSG Landers, who had been ranked first in the regular season but has now fallen to the point where it is difficult to guarantee fall baseball, is in an even more difficult situation as their trusted closing pitcher, Seo Jin-yong, has recently faltered. 카지노사이트
Seo Jin-yong took the mound in the 9th inning against the Jamsil Doosan Bears on the 14th with a 2-0 lead, but was hit by a walk-off hit by Heo Gyeong-min, resulting in a 2-3 comeback loss, making his 4th blown save of the season.
Currently, SSG is in 4th place, half a game ahead of 5th place KIA Tigers.
SSG coach Kim Won-hyung said ahead of the LG Twins game to be held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 16th, "(The Doosan game on the 14th) was a very big game from the team's perspective.
The important thing is that the result was like that."
He added, "Even if Seo Jin-yong got a hit, he finished with 2 outs and 3.
“He should have been hit by Kim In-tae on the base,” he pointed out.
At that time, Seo Jin-yong committed a wild pitch at the plate when Kang Seung-ho was at bat with 1 out, 1st and 2nd bases, and then induced an infield ground ball, trading 1 out count for 1 point.
SSG Battery, trailing by one run at 2-1, avoided a confrontation with pinch hitter Kim In-tae at third base with two outs and chose the next hitter, Park Gye-beom.
However, Kim In-tae, who walked, succeeded in stealing second base, with 2 outs and 2nd and 3rd bases, making it a situation where one hit would be enough to end the game.
Once again, SSG Battery sent out Park Gye-beom with an intentional walk to fill first base and then chose to face Jo Su-haeng.
At this time, Doosan put pinch hitter Heo Gyeong-min in Jo Soo-haeng's at-bat, and Seo Jin-yong, whose control was shaken, allowed the score to be tied 2-2 with a wild pitch and then got a walk-off hit from Heo Gyeong-min.
Coach Kim said, “If there is no sign from the bench, you have to face the batter.
You may decide that it will be difficult to compete with the batter on the mound, but the moment the runner who walks is stolen, you become a come-from-behind runner.
“It was a shame that I didn’t get to see it that far,” he said.
Seo Jin-yong became the first player in KBO League history to hit the 30-save mark without a blown save.
He, who never committed a blown save in 50 appearances, helped his team win for the first time against Doosan in Jamsil on the 27th of last month.
In the last 8 games, Seo Jin-yong made 4 blown saves. Coach Kim said , "
As it became physically difficult, the number of missed shots increased.
“The forkball needs to fall further, but it’s in the strike zone,” he said.
“Now I think I need to give a signal from the bench to fight a little more boldly.”
