On the 27th, Samsung participated in the 2023 professional baseball game against Kiwoom held at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu and won 8-6. They lost 4-7 on the 25th, but won a come-from-behind victory 6-5 on the 26th, and continued their upward trend by winning this day as well.
Won Tae-in is a right-handed pitcher from Gyeongbuk High School, who was first selected by Samsung in the 2019 rookie draft. As expected by Samsung, he has established himself as an axis of the starting pitching staff, and he is showing a figure that is not inferior to being called a native ace. Prior to this game, he appeared in 21 games and recorded an average ERA of 3.43 with 5 wins and 6 losses.
Although the number of multipliers is rather small, Won Tae-in does not seem to care much. He said, “It would be nice to win 10 wins, but I talked with catcher (Kang) Min-ho to focus on quality starts (pitching less than 3 earned runs in 6 innings by a starting pitcher).” That means he values stability as a starting pitcher.
On this day, Won Tae-in pitched well with 6 hits and no runs in 7 innings, befitting the future of the Samsung mound. He got consecutive hits in the top of the 4th inning and was put on the 1st and 3rd base crisis, but he had to put out a follow-up batter to end the inning with a fly ball and a double hit. He showed off a sense of stability with 5 strikeouts and a safe 4-pitch pitch.
The batting line also worked hard. At the end of the 2nd inning, Jae-il Oh opened the fire with a double, then Lee Jae-hyeon sacrificed fly to take the lead, and at the end of the 3rd, Min-ho Kang and Jae-il Oh added 3 runs. At the end of the 5th inning, he tied Jose Pirella’s timely hits and at the end of the 6th, Kim Ji-chan and Koo Ja-wook’s timely hits, added 4 points.
However, it was regrettable that the bullpen lost a point at the last minute. As soon as second pitcher Lee Sang-min took the mound, he got three hits in a row and gave up one run. Hong Jung-woo, who took over the mound, was hit in a timely manner by Kim Hui-jip and lost one more point. In the ensuing crisis, Lee Joo-hyung hit a 3-run home run. The fourth pitcher, Lee Seung-hyeon, also gave up one run, and Oh Seung-hwan had to finish the game in the ninth inning.
Meanwhile, Samsung won 6-5 thanks to Oh Jae-il’s come-from-behind home run in the 8th inning the previous day. The loss was dark as they lost 2-5 until the 7th inning, but in the 8th inning, Oh Jae-il’s home run gave him a chance to win.
