Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 9th, when the second game of the exhibition game between the LG Twins and the KT Wiz was held.
As soon as the pre-game interview began, LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop hit the player even before the question flew in. What was he talking about.
LG decided to break up with left-hander Dietrick N.S., who won 13 games last year, and newly recruited Yoni Chirinos. Some even wonder why Lee came to Korea. His career in the big league recorded 20 wins. Regardless of the performance, the power of falling balls, such as two-seam fastballs, sinkers, and folk balls, was so good that KBO league hitters were evaluated as not a pitcher who could easily attack.
And on the 8th, he made his first debut to Korean fans by starting the first game of the exhibition game against KT. Of course, practice games in Okinawa, Japan, were broadcast, but the first pitch in the actual game where the spectators entered was bound to draw attention.

It was inevitable to be disappointing in terms of the results. However, coach Yeom said he had to look at the contents. Manager Yeom said, `KT's batting lineup is one of the best in the league. It was good until the third inning against the lineup. There was hardly any fly ball until the third inning. It was all ground balls. Two-seam fastballs and folk balls were good. Overall, it seems that the core pitches were tricky for batters. KT also said so. In the end, the players who have hit the ball know best."

Coach Yeom said, `I can't help but throw a fastball. You have to use it when you use it. When the season starts, the speed of the fastball will increase to 153 to 154 kilometers. Then it might be harder to hit. Park Dong-won is also in the process of getting to know Chirinos. It will get better through this process. What is certain is that Chirinos will do their part enough."
