lg rookie right-hander Lee Min-ho (19) started in the Doosan Kyonggi in Jamsil-dong-dong on the 26th, the first day of the season when the crowd entered.
It was a game that could be a lot of burden for a new Pitcher because it was the first game of Doosan, which is the most inferior game, and the first game of the crowd, but lg coach Ryu Joong-il predicted that he would enjoy it. It meant that Lee Min-ho, who watched through his usual facial expressions and training, was a player who knew how to play a game with guts even in a situation where he was so nervous.
As Ryu Joong-il predicted, Lee Min-ho received a standing ovation from lg fans who met for the first time since his debut. He threw 101 in five innings, 5 hits, 3 walks, 4 strikeouts, 2 runs, and came down the Mound in the first and second bases of the sixth inning, trailing 1-2. lg fans applauded with a hot shout on the youngest unstoppable pitch against Doosan, who did not meet the winning Pitcher requirement, but showed his youngest opponent.
Lee Min-ho played Choi Joo-hwan in the first inning and 16th in the fourth inning. Lee Min-ho also played with fastball, slider, and curves like a bad Kyonggi in the persistence of Choi Joo-hwan, a senior hitter who continued to foul the ball in the ball count 1-1. Choi Joo-hwan, who kicked out 11 fouls, eventually gave up a walk on a full count, but Lee Min-ho, who threw his teeth without wanting to lose, showed the fighters that all team fans wanted.
Lee Min-ho, who made a first and second base crisis with walks and hits in the sixth inning with more than 100 pitches, did not stop his desire to win the Mound. After filling up with two outs, Jung Woo-young finished the inning with a strikeout, Lee Min-ho, who was in the dugout, cheered with his fists.
lg, who started the game, turned around in the seventh inning to win 4-3, thanks to Lee Min-ho's unbreakable performance against the Doosan sluggers. It was the first win-winning series against Doosan this season with 2 wins and 1 loss.
Lee Min-ho is currently in the fifth starting lineup with Chung Chan-hun, but the starting range is quite long. This time, the rain cancellation overlaps and he started in two weeks. Although it is intended to manage physical strength and prevent injuries, Lee Min-ho continues his pitching without losing his sense of irregular intervals.
He has the best ERA among lg's starting lineup with 2.00 ERA, which is only 2 wins (two losses), but he has an average of 1-2 points against all five teams that have been on the Mound so far. There is no game that is going to collapse. Doosan, which has played four games including two relief appearances, is 2.57 ERA.
lg, which has lost six consecutive games since its opening game against Doosan this season, is currently 4-8 against each other. Chow Chan, who was the strongest player in Doosan at lg, also slipped after winning the opening game this year, and Doosan's ERA is 11 points. Wilson and Kelly both recorded 4-5 points ERA in Doosan, and Lee Min-ho, the youngest, is the most stable while disappearing. Lee Min-ho, who made the debut against the leading NC on the 11th, did not win either, but he pitched with 6.2 innings, four hits, three runs (two earned), and is stronger against the strong team.
Lee Min-ho, who showed up in front of the crowd for the first time since his debut, said, "I was a little nervous before the game, but I started to relax and enjoy it. “I think it was better to hear the cheering,” he said. “When I start playing with any team, I focus on throwing my ball. “I’m satisfied if the team can win,” he said.
