It has been recognized for its potential since the days of the Whistle, and it has gained expectations as a starting source for the future by having various changes such as sliders, curves, and Forkballs in fast balls in the early 150 km/h. Flexible pitching form and exceptional victoriousness are also the strengths of Lee Min-ho. Although he made his name by playing in the first group 2 Kyonggi this season, the starter who had to lead the Kyonggi atmosphere from the beginning had a different weight.
“I’ll watch it comfortably,” Ryu said before Kyonggi on Monday, “but will you throw it well for me to use it?” “I will continue playing baseball for the next 10 to 20 years. Pitcher is right and big. It’s good to throw his ball comfortably.” He was trying to ease the burden. I did not forget the praise that Pitcher is okay with quick motion and defense. "
He responded perfectly to that belief: he threw 86 pitches in 5.1 innings, leading the team to a 2-0 victory with a 1 Hit 4 walks, 2 strikeouts and no strikeouts, and winning a thrilling debut victory.
As soon as I got to the Mound, I showed off my strengths. Four types of fastballs (posim and 37) with a maximum arrest of 151 km, cut fastball (Cutter and 31), Forkball and curve (9 or more) were all high in perfection. He continued his pitching with the four-seam and Cutter. He threw a Forkball and a curve in the right place and took the timing, so he could not help his opponent. It was also one of the secrets of the pitching that caught 15 first-round strikes against 20 batters.
It wasn’t a Fireballer from the start. The arrest of Posim, which was only 120km in junior high school, rose to 137km in high school and 147km in high school, and it was possible to throw more than 150km from high school. The fact that the 15km-high arrest in high school remains unchanged in the pro is evidence of Lee Min-ho's "professionalization".
For rookie Pitchers like Lee Min-ho, the early mood is quite important: in that respect, the two points scored by Chae Eun-sung's home run in the first inning were very precious. The more prominent part is the separate one: The 2-0 unsettling gap remained the same until Kim Yoon-sik was replaced after the first inning, but Lee Min-ho nevertheless remained unshakable. Except for the second inning, he never let out the lead Hitter, and he did not allow the scorer to go on the run.
Ryu mentioned comfort in the first place to empty his mind, but the meaning changed. It was a sense of stability. When Lee Min-ho was replaced after pitching, Ryu even raised his thumb directly to Lee Min-ho, which was filled with joy. No wonder we have found a competitive selection resource. And it’s a fireballer. There’s nothing more to hope for.
