Painful but joyful Kim Won-joong. The giants' pleasant ceremony
On the day fire bowler Yoon Sung-bin was called up again to the first team, Kim Won-joong was hit by a group of 'back smashes'. Yoon Sung-bin also vigorously hit Kim Won-joong on the back.

SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 14th. While the game was canceled the previous day due to rain, Lotte players began training for the second game in the clear weather.

Lotte pitchers held a special ceremony before training. In the game on the 12th, Kim Won-joong, who made a blon save, was seen making a group 'back smashing'. Rather than a penalty, it is a pleasant ritual that means 'Let's shake off bad memories'. Kim Won-joong, whose face was red, also smiled loudly and touched his painful back.

How painful was the back smashing of pitchers throwing over 140km.
Yoon Sung-bin and Koo Seung-min, who just happened to be called up to the first team, also actively participated in the back smashing. Yoon is a fireballer who throws a 159km fastball. Kim Won-joong, who keeps rubbing his back, even felt sorry for him.




Coach Kim Tae-hyung called Yoon Sung-bin back to the first team ahead of the game. Jang Doo-sung, who was canceled due to the injury of the check ball, and Kim Jin-wook, who showed sluggishness, went down to the second division, and Yoon Sung-bin and Koo Seung-min joined the entry.

Yoon Sung-bin, who joined Lotte with a down payment of 450 million won as the first designation of the rookie draft in 2017, was a promising player with excellent physical conditions, but he has shown a disappointing move since joining the professional league. After recording 2-5 losses and a 6.39 ERA in his debut season, he took only three first-team appearances from 2019 to May.

Yoon Sung-bin, who took the mound for the first time in 294 days against LG on May 20 this year, made a strong impression with a 157-kilometer fastball, but the flow was cut off due to a pitch-com error, collapsing to nine runs in one inning and going back down to the second division.




At the time, head coach Kim Tae-hyung gave Yoon Sung-bin homework to gain various experiences from the second division to the middle fight. Since then, Yoon Sung-bin has turned into a bullpen pitcher and showed a 159km super fastball in six games, achieving a promising 3.46 ERA in 13 innings.

Head coach Kim Tae-hyung said he plans to use Yoon Sung-bin as a short inning game in this three consecutive games.

Let's see if Yoon Sung-bin, who changed his position from starting to bullpen, can take this opportunity to establish himself in the first team.
