Kim Tae-hyung's expectation was high, but the stage for the first team was disappointing again. He pitched impressively in the second team, but he couldn't hide his tension in the first team.
Lotte's Yoon Sung-bin, who showed strong pitching in four games and 18 ⅓ innings this season, has a chance to start the first team this season.
Ahead of Yoon's starting game, Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung also expressed expectations, saying, `I'm looking forward to how Sung-bin will throw it as a coach.'
Yoon Sung-bin caught a strike with a 157-kilometer fastball from the first pitch to LG leadoff hitter Park Hae-min in the top of the first inning. When 157 kilometers were recorded on the electronic display, Lotte fans shouted. Yoon Sung-bin struck out Park Hae-min after three pitches. Park Hae-min's bat went blank on a fastball of 157 kilometers to 156 kilometers to 157 kilometers.
After one out, Moon Sung-joo, the next batter, also caught two strikes and played quickly, but a fork ball of 146km on three pitches became a left-handed hit. One out and one base. Yoon Sung-bin struck out three pitches again against Kim Hyun-soo, looking like he would finish the first inning with ease.

Two outs and a runner on first base. There was a problem while pitching against Moon Bo-kyung. Due to Moon Sung-joo's stolen base, Yoon Sung-bin failed to continue his pitch as if there was a problem with the pitch-com equipment installed in the hat during the pitch. As if he couldn't hear the catcher's signature, he took off his hat and looked at the pitchcom equipment.
In the end, he continued to pitch after replacing the pitchcom equipment, but he started to shake by throwing four consecutive balls to Moon Bo-kyung. With two outs and runners on the first and second bases, Oh is on the verge of loading the bases with two outs, throwing a pitch that fits his body.
With two outs and a full base, Song allowed a run to push the ball away by throwing consecutive balls after two strikes and one ball. The bases loaded with two outs again. He even allowed Koo Bon-hyuk to make a timely two-run hit.
Three runs after two outs in the first inning. Ham Chang-gun was handled with a fly to right field, finishing the long inning pitching in the first inning. After two outs, it began to shake after checking the pitchcom equipment. Yoon Sung-bin's fingers trembled as if the tension had increased as he touched the pitchcom. As he continued to receive attention on the mound, he shook sharply and failed to continue his normal pitching.

Yoon Sung-bin also took the mound in the second inning, but failed to regain stability. After allowing consecutive walks to Lee Joo-heon and Park Hae-min, a timely RBI to Moon Sung-joo. The number of runs continued to increase by allowing Kim Hyun-soo's walk, Moon Bo-kyung's one-run walk, and Oh Ji-hwan's one-run infield hit.
In the end, Yoon Sung-bin failed to catch any outcount in the second inning and handed over the mound to Park Jin with no outs and bases loaded. As Park Jin allowed a grand slam to follow-up hitter Song Chan-eui, Yoon Sung-bin's responsible run increased to nine points.
Yoon's first start this season was nine runs in one inning. He got off to a fresh start by striking out two in the top of the first inning, but collapsed by allowing six walks and four hits.
What if there was no pitch-com problem during the pitch in the top of the first inning? It was his first appearance this season, which was not even lucky for a rising star in his ninth year.
