“This is the command of Jang Won-sam’s heyday.”

SBS Sports commentators Lee Soon-chul and Kim Tae-hyung, who were broadcasting the KIA-Lotte match on the 3rd, were enthusiastic in praising KIA ‘Smile Guy’ Yoon Young-cheol (19) until the middle of the game. In particular, commentator Lee Soon-chul said, “Heh heh, heh heh,” when Yun Young-chul scored a looking strikeout with a ball count of 1B2S and 4 fastballs to the inside border line against Han Dong-hee in the beginning of the 4th inning with no runners.

Commentator Kim Tae-hyeong, who took a deep breath, said, “It was a perfect pitch.” Then, Commissioner Lee Soon-cheol said, “I pitch where I want. It is such a command in the heyday of Jang Won-sam in the past.” Commissioner Kim Tae-hyung and caster Jung Woo-young also sympathized.

Jang Won-sam (strongest baseball) appeared in 367 games for Hyundai, Heroes, Samsung, LG, and Lotte from 2006 to 2020, recording an average ERA of 4.28 with 121 wins, 98 losses, 1 save, and 9 holds. He was synonymous with left-handed finesse pitchers from the late 2000s to the early 2010s. His fastball velocity was in the early 140km, but he reigned as the ace of the Samsung Dynasty with his sharp command and control.

Yoon Young-cheol was called a super high school level pitcher by leading the national championship as an ace of Chungam High School in 2022. In the JTBC entertainment program Strongest Baseball, he overpowered the KBO legend batters of Monsters led by Doosan coach Lee Seung-yeop three times, leaving a mark on the fans. His speed ranges from the late 130km range to the early 140km, but he was praised for his extreme command and control, and high-level game management ability.

As expected, he was dropped with 5 starts and is having an excellent rookie season. On the 3rd, he won his first win in his debut with Gwangju Lotte Game 5 innings, 5 hits, 3 strikeouts, 1 walk and 1 run. He has not yet had a quality start, but he has emerged as the number one rookie of the year by revealing his strengths. 1 win 1 loss 4.00 ERA in 4 games.

Commissioners Lee Soon-chul and Kim Tae-hyeong praised Yoon Young-cheol whenever they had a chance from episode 1 to episode 5. Recently, he overpowered the hottest Lotte batting line in the league to near perfection. Commissioner Lee said, “He throws the right-handed opponent’s slider well (toward the body). For a right-handed hitter, it is not easy to hit because it is an angle that fits the (bat) handle. And with his outside changeup, he completely steals the timing.”

Commissioner Kim Tae-hyung said, “I don’t think that the batter is hitting it, but it seems that I only see the catcher’s signature and throw it. That’s right. Rookie pitchers can’t throw their own pitches well when a strong hitter comes out, but Yoon Young-cheol is quite attractive as a rookie, regardless of the results.”

I didn’t just praise. The two members also suggested points for improvement. He said that there was no part to be touched in the pitching mechanic, but he expressed an opinion that it would be nice if the timing for the hands to separate after entering the pitching motion should be a little later. In other words, it is necessary to gather more power during the center shift process.메이저사이트

Commissioner Lee said, “If you want to become a top-notch player, your mound management skills will shine more if your speed is a little higher than now. If he throws 145km while maintaining his current advantage, it will be very tricky. He seems to be at the level of playing with hitters. Because it is 140 km now. He has to take the exact command.”

He said, “If you don’t come up to the middle of 140km, you need to take a long hand separation action. It’s too fast now. Energy is not gathered and power is dissipated. There is a difference when compared to Yang Hyeon-jong (KIA) and Kim Kwang-hyun (SSG).” It is pointed out that after entering the pitching motion, you need to bring your hands back enough to put more power on the ball.

KIA also formed a consensus that Yoon Young-cheol’s restraint should be raised a little more. I know. You just need to take your time and make up for it naturally. Analysts say that he has a lot of potential for development because he has a relaxed and calm personality that never loses his smile. If the restraint increases a little more and the separation point of the two hands is delayed a little, there is a good chance that he will surpass the second Jang Won-sam. KIA plans to develop Yoon Young-cheol as a left-handed starting pitcher along with Lee Eui-ri.
