Again, this is KT’s director Lee Kang-cheol.
KIA great pitcher Yang Hyeon-jong (35) summoned manager Lee Kang-cheol again. Yang Hyeon-jong has already surpassed manager Lee Kang-cheol’s records for the most wins, strikeouts, and most innings for the Tigers several times, becoming the Tigers’ No. 1 pitcher. It is the second season of a 4-year, 10.3 billion won free agent contract, and he is still in his mid-30s. Yang Hyeon-jong goes beyond the Tigers and heads for the best in the KBO League.
On the 9th, he faced Gwang-Hyun Kim in the SSG game in Gwangju and achieved 2 wins in the season and 161 wins in his personal career. However, following the game against Doosan in Jamsil on the 14th, he also failed to add a multiplier against Kiwoom in Gwangju on the 21st. He was not bad with 10 hits, 5 strikeouts and 4 runs (2 earned) in 5⅓ innings against Doosan. He even threw better against Kiwoom that day with 8 hits, 3 strikeouts, 1 walk and 1 run in 7 innings, but he suffered his first loss of the season without the help of the other line he trusted.
Following a walk by the lead batter in the 7th inning, the final blow was an unpleasant infield hit by Lim Ji-yeol. The batted ball, which was slower than a bunt, rolled to the third base line. Yang Hyeon-jong, who has good defense, was also not lucky enough to have to give up throwing to first base after the catch.
In the end, he was hit by veteran Lee Ji-young in the middle of the final with an RBI first. I continued to play outside against Lee Ji-young, who had good contact, but in the end, Lee Ji-young’s concentration was a little better. Still, Yang Hyeon-jong later raised his hands to the bench and catcher Han Seung-taek, firmly expressing his intention to finish the 7th inning, and kept his promise by treating Lee Jung-hoo as a ground ball to first base.
Devotion and mission to take responsibility for as many innings as possible regardless of winning or losing. No one can dispute that royalties toward the Tigers made Yang Hyeon-jong today. With that responsibility, he is spending his 16th season in the KBO League.스포츠토토
KBO career tied for second place with the most wins, Jeong Min-cheol, MBC Sports Plus commentator, and failed again to rise to second place alone. Of course it’s a matter of time. If he wins 162 wins over commentator Jeong Min-cheol, he will challenge Song Jin-woo (210 wins), who has the most wins in his career. If you don’t get hurt like you did until now, you can challenge after this contract is over and you sign an extension again.
Rather, he added another unexpected record. Yang Hyeon-jong added 7 innings that day, and with a total of 2205⅔ innings, he ranked third in the KBO’s most innings. It exceeded manager Lee Kang-cheol’s 2204⅔ innings. 1st and 2nd in this category are also Song Jin-woo (3003 innings) and Commissioner Jeong Min-cheol (2394⅔ innings). He approached Commissioner Jeong with a 189 inning car. In the 2024 season, it can be surpassed enough, and it seems that it will eventually surpass Song Jin-woo. The last mountain that the great pitcher will conquer is eventually Song Jin-woo.
