The starting pitcher who took the mound in the fourth inning struck out all three batters with only nine balls. At that moment, all the fellow players watching from the dugout stood up and cheered. But the person concerned is grave. I didn't even know I set a record.
LG Twins' Lim Chan-kyu set a meaningful record with three wins of the season against the Kiwoom Heroes at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 10th.

| You can easily think of others as throwing the ball. However, Lim Chan-kyu "He adjusts his speed with a curve in the middle, but he throws it really hard. It's not such an easy life." |
|
On the same day, Lim Chan-kyu cooked the Kiwoom lineup with a fastball of 144 kilometers in maximum speed, a curve of 97 kilometers in minimum, and a changeup of 126 to 128 kilometers. It was a perfect pitch to finish every inning within 10 pitches until the fifth inning.
In particular, Puig, Lee Joo-hyung and Park Joo-hong all struck out three pitches in the fourth inning. It is the 10th valuable record in KBO League history and the first by LG.

| In contrast, Lim Chan-kyu, who thought he just struck out three, shows his colleagues cheering. |
|
Pitchers watching in the dugout, including Son Joo-young and Hernandez, stood up cheering in unison. In particular, it was impressive to see Son Joo-young, who won three games on the 8th, opening her mouth wide and admiring it.
However, Lim Chan-kyu himself did not know. In a post-match Su-hoon player interview, Lim Chan-kyu said, `I just thought I struck out three, but I knew because Son Joo-young said it was a record."

| Lim Chan-gyu, who did not know the meaning of the record, did not take the commemorative composition. During the interview after the game, Lim Chan-kyu said, `I'll just take any ball here"I shuddered. |

Lim Chan-kyu, who continued his scoreless streak with only 45 balls until the fifth inning, allowed a solo shot to leadoff hitter Kim Gun-hee in the sixth inning. After that, he struck out Park Joo-hong in a crisis with two outs and runners on the first and third bases, preventing additional runs. It is the only moment that Lim Chan-kyu, who calmly continued his pitching, roared.

Lim Chan-kyu, who also took the mound in the seventh inning, faced Kim Gun-hee again with two outs and a runner on first base. A groundout to the second base is out after a game that goes up to the sixth pitch. Lim Chan-kyu raised his chin and bit his teeth as if to look.
Lim Chan-kyu, a 33-year-old pitcher who won 14 games in the 2023 season and 10 last year, has already won three games this year. On March 26, his first start of the season, he also tasted the emotion of his first shutout victory against Hanwha.
Lim Chan-kyu, who shook off Hernandez's poor performance the day before, pitched well. A veteran with an ERA of 0.83 leads the LG pitching staff at the front.
