On the 9th, the two best pitchers in the league may face each other. The main characters are Cho Sang-woo (26) of the Kium Heroes and Oh Seung-hwan (38) of the Samsung Lions. The two players have a lot in common. They are closers with a heavy task of overpowering opponents with fast balls and defending their team’s victory. Both players are called ‘final kings’.
This season, Cho has been on the mound in nine games with one win, six saves and a 0.87 ERA. It was called ‘Mr. Zero’ until it allowed one run against the Gocheok LG Twins on the 5th. Last year, due to a sudden slump and a shoulder injury, 강남오피he handed over his finishing post to veteran Oh Joo-won (35), but regained his role this year. He is doing as well as expected.
After being asked about meeting Oh in an interview with reporters ahead of the LG match on Thursday, Cho Sang-woo said, “I don’t think I’ll be a rival. “I’m far behind Oh Seung-hwan,” he said. “I’ll learn a lot from Oh Seung-
Oh is considered the best player to the extent that Cho Sang-woo shows respect. be the last king in origin He has the most saves in the KBO league, and won the save king in the 2006-2008 season and the 2011-2012 season. In the 2006 and 2011 seasons, he achieved 47 saves. It was a key force in the Samsung dynasty. He has 28 wins, 13 losses, 277 saves, 11 holds, and an ERA of 1.69 in 444 games, and has returned to Korea after going through Japan and the United States.
Oh was suspended from 72 games for gambling overseas in 2016. Oh Seung-hwan, who returned to Samsung in August last year, can take the mound as punishment will be lifted from the home game against the Kia Tigers in Daegu on the 9th. He has been with the first-tier squad since last 2nd. “If the punishment is lifted, we will register Oh immediately,” said Huh Sam-young, 48, a manager at Samsung.
Normally, it is difficult for two players to show up in one game. Due to the nature of finishing, both Cho Sang-woo and Oh Seung-hwan can take the mound only when the team leads.
However, a special situation has emerged, such as Oh’s return game. Oh Seung-hwan, who underwent surgery to remove bone fragments on his elbow last year, spent a long time in rehabilitation. Except for his own match against Cheongbaek in Daegu on the 12th of last month, he had no chance to throw the ball properly. He is expected to play the game in order 서울오피to build up his sense of practice.
Head coach Huh Sam-young said earlier that Oh’s appearance in the ninth inning could be burdensome. The conditions for taking the mound are likely to be quite free. This means that he can play at any time according to the decision of the team’s coaches. Perhaps you can see Cho Sang-woo and Oh Seung-hwan pitch hard in the same game.
