Chung Hyeon-woo, the No. 1 rookie, started pitching for the first time since his injury.

Kiwoom Heroes' Jung Hyun-woo started the Futures League game against the Hanwha Eagles in Goyang on the 27th and allowed two hits, one walk, and two runs (non-earned) against seven batters in one inning.

Chung Hyun-woo, who allowed a heavy hit to the front-runner An Chi-hong, caught Bae Seung-soo with a fly to the first baseman, and made it to the second out by treating him with a foul fly to the first baseman after a close game going up to the eighth pitch in the third Euro.




However, he threw four balls in a row to No. 4 Lim Jong-chan to allow a straight walk, with two outs and runners on first and second base, and the inning seemed to end by inducing Heo In-seo to fly to second base, but second baseman Seo Yoo-shin failed to catch the ball, and second baseman An Chi-hong, who had already started, and first baseman Lim Jong-chan both homered to make it 0-2. Chung Hyun-woo allowed Park Sang-eon to make an infield hit to the shortstop with two outs and runners on second base, leading to a crisis of two outs and runners on first and third bases. He finished the long first inning by hitting No. 7 Kim Gun with a ground ball in front of the shortstop.

Chung Hyeon-woo, who recorded 25 pitches, handed over the mound to Jeong Se-young in the top of the second inning.

Chung Hyeon-woo is a left-handed pitcher who graduated from Deoksu High School and was nominated by Kiwoom as the No. 1 player in the first round. Chung Hyun-woo, who joined the starting rotation since the opening, recorded 122 pitches in his first appearance against the KIA Tigers on March 26, allowing eight hits, seven walks and six runs (four earned runs) in five innings, and became a winning pitcher in his first appearance with a 17-10 victory due to the explosion of the lineup. It was the 12th time in KBO League history that a high school graduate rookie won his professional debut match.




Since then, he seemed to be cruising with 101 pitches, four hits and two runs in five innings against Gocheok NC on April 6 and two runs in five innings against Daejeon Hanwha on April 12, but he was canceled from the first team on April 17 due to symptoms of shoulder clumping during training and has been rehabilitating due to symptoms of shoulder inflammation.

Now, Chung Hyeon-woo, who pitched for the first time, is expected to return to the first team after raising the number of pitches in the second team.
