He erased an inning with 17 balls. It was also an opponent-centered lineup. Kim Min-hyuk, Jang Sung-woo, and Moon Sang-cheol. They were never easy seniors.
However, Moon Sang-chul, who hit 17 home runs last year, struck out three pitches. That's also a strikeout with a swing and miss. It's not a breaking ball, but Moon Sang-chul's bat went blank on a 153km fastball.
Fans of the Hanwha Eagles swelled with anticipation. This is because Jung Woo-joo, who was said to be a rookie, came to Daejeon at the second place. Kiwoom Heroes turned to Jung Hyun-woo, allowing Hanwha to embrace a 155km fireball.
And his professional debut. He took the mound in the bottom of the eighth inning of the game against KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 23rd. It was losing 3-4, but it was a one-point difference, so it was actually a tight situation where it had to play a must-win role.

He threw the ball as if nothing happened on the mound, but he is still 19 years old. Jung Woo-joo laughed, saying, `I was actually very nervous because it was before my debut.' Then "The seniors encouraged me a lot. In particular, catcher Lee Jae-won told me not to be nervous, and he led well. So I was able to throw it comfortably."
The electronic display marked the number 155. However, Jung Woo-joo said solemnly, `There are a lot of fastball pitchers on our team, so I'm not conscious of the restraint.'
Hanwha seniors took care of both the ball that caught the first out count and the first strikeout ball. Jung Woo-joo "Thank you to the coach, coach, and seniors. I want to grow into a player that helps my team win under any circumstances"I confidently stated my goal.
