KIA Tigers ended their losing streak with Yang Hyun-jong's hard pitching of 'Great Pitcher'.

KIA won 8-3 against KT Wiz in the 2025 KBO League at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 22nd. KIA escaped from two consecutive losses and avoided a sweep of three consecutive games during the week.

Starting pitcher Yang Hyun-jong pitched six ⅔ innings with three runs (unearned). Yang recorded three wins (four losses) this season.




Park Chan-ho was 3 for 5 with 1 RBI and 1 run, Kim Do-young was 3 for 4 with 1 homer, 2 RBIs and 3 runs, Choi Hyung-woo was 2 for 4 with 1 RBI and 1 run, Oh Sun-woo was 2 for 5 with 1 RBI and 1 run, Lee Woo-sung was 1 for 3 with 2 RBIs, and Park Jung-woo was 3 for 3 with 1 RBI and 1 run scored.

After the game, Yang Hyeon-jong "Kim Tae-gun's lead was so good. After I gave the score, I also got support for scoring. So I went in more aggressively. As a result, the number of pitches was adequate. So I was able to throw a lot of innings"I looked back.

In fact, all the runs Yang Hyun-jong gave up in the first inning were self-imposed. Defensive errors were the problem.




However, Yang blamed himself.

Yang Hyun-jong "It's a score that came out when I was on the mound anyway. There was a defensive error, but in the process, I got a hit in front and walked. There is nothing to blame. "I reflect on myself and play with that kind of thought..." he said calmly.

Rather, Yang Hyun-jong threw harder to relieve the defense burden.

Yang Hyeon-jong "I wanted to finish the inning quickly. When the fielders finish defending anyway, they have to attack. In that sense, it is natural to play a role in reducing defense time. So I played more aggressively"Ko explained.

Yang Hyun-jong asked for support, saying KIA could soon hit and go up.

Yang Hyeon-jong "There are a lot of injured players right now. I think it's strong if they all come back. If we hold out with the players we have now, we will have more chances to win. At the moment, the only way is to do our best in each game as much as possible."
