Incheon, Jo Hyeong-rae reporter] Lotte Kim Won-jung, who made his first two-digit save two days ago, became the first loser since the conversion. Could he have relieved his fatigue after hitting the most pitches the season two days ago? As Kim Won-jung was frustrated, Lotte suffered a painful blow.
Lotte lost 7-8 in the match against SK Wyverns, the regular “2020 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League” held at the SK Happy Dream Stadium in Incheon on the 21st. With the loss of the end, Lotte lost 30% to 33 wins in season again.
It was painful that Kim Won-jung, the patron deity of Lotte, collapsed. Kim Won-jung has had three blow saves since finishing his career this season, but there has been no loss. However, at the end of the ninth inning, he lost his first loss after finishing the conversion, allowing Jamie Romac to finish two-run in the first baseman.
Coincidentally, it is a blow save and a defeat in the two days after achieving the first 10 saves of debut by recording 1 loss innings, 33 pitches, 1 hit, 3 strikeouts and 1 strike inning in the Daegu Samsung Game on the 19th.
In the meantime, Kim Won-jung, despite committing a blow save in the closing situation, kept the team from heading to defeat while suppressing further runs. All three previous blow saves scored only one goal. However, on the same day, he committed a blow save with his first defeat.
Kim Won-jung has been under management. It was also the consideration of Heo Moon-hoe for the first season of the full-time finish. The game on the 19th was not a save situation in the previous games, and it was also a game on the 8th.
So, at the time, director Mun Moon-ho chose to entrust Kim Won-jung to multi-inning to prevent the team from sweeping the series. He also recorded 33 pitches, the highest pitch since the conversion.
However, it was somewhat questionable whether Kim Won-jung's fatigue would be relieved in one day. On this day, coach Heo Moon-ho said that before the game, Kim Won-jung would also wait, but it was best to have a situation where he did not start. However, as the game ended in a close match and the score difference narrowed by one point in nine times, Kim Won-jung started.
First, the lead hitter Choi Jun-woo was treated as a right-handed ball. However, in the game against Choi Jung, he was allowed to walk even though he held a favorable count of 1B-2S. In addition, the fastball restraint fell to 142 km against Romac, and anxiety was detected, and finally, throwing a 131 km slider to Romac allowed the two-run end.
Kim Won-jung himself said, “If I climb the mound and pitch, I feel a little more tired.” Eventually, after one of the most pitched seasons, fatigue didn't go away a day, and the first season of shock was lost.
It was a painful blow to Lotte to try to reach the 50% win rate again while missing the victory, and it was the result of a wink again.
