Manager Schneider applauded, saying, “It’s very surprising,” for the pitching of “victorious pitcher” Ryu Hyun-jin after winning 11-4 against the Chicago Cubs in the 2023 Major League Baseball (MLB) held at the Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 14th (Korean time). sent

Ryu Hyun-jin, who underwent elbow ligament joint surgery (Tommy John surgery) in June of last year, played his third pitching game after returning that day.

Ryu Hyun-jin gave up two runs first in the aftermath of a fielder’s error in the first inning, but blocked the remaining four innings with no runs. He effectively shut down Cubs hitters, allowing only two hard hits, and threw a sharp changeup to increase his out count.

Coach Schneider commented, “Ryu Hyun-jin has never collapsed greatly after his return. He suppressed strong batting in today’s game,” and “Now, after returning, he has appeared three times, and he is showing what he looked like before he was injured.”

Ryu Hyun-jin took the mound in 3 games this season and put on stable pitches, recording 1 win and 1 loss with an ERA of 2.57. On the 2nd, his comeback stage, against the Baltimore Orioles, he suffered a loss with 4 runs in 5 innings, but on the 8th against the Cleveland Guardians (4 scoreless innings) and on the same day, before the Cubs, he recorded a non-book in two consecutive games.

The Toronto head coach paid tribute to Ryu Hyun-jin as he played a great role without any postoperative complications.

Coach Schneider praised him, saying, “It’s amazing that he’s showing that kind of figure at his age. It’s never easy, but Ryu Hyun-jin is doing it very easily. He threw a really good ball.”

“Ryu Hyun-jin is a pitcher who knows how to throw the ball very well,” he said with a thumbs up.
