"I got hit by Aaron Judge."
He changed his body and mind lightly. As I threw it with a positive body and mind, Seung-woon followed. Kwak Bin, the domestic ace of the Doosan Bears, pitched six innings and played a role as a starting pitcher. Although he allowed four runs after hitting a home run, he filled the inning he was responsible for, and won two consecutive games with the help of hitters.
Kwak Bin started the game against the LG Twins in Jamsil on the 21st and became the winning pitcher by leading his team's 6-5 victory with seven hits (one home run), two walks, two strikeouts, and four runs in six innings. He sprayed 41 fastballs of up to 155km, and blocked LG's batters with 34 sliders, 14 curves, and 13 changeups.
He allowed a tie immediately in the bottom of the first inning when he started with a 1-0 lead. After one out, Kim Hyun-soo was allowed a double on the right field line, and Austin was caught on a fly to right field, with two outs and runners on third base. After walking Moon Bo-kyung, he lost a point after being hit by Moon Sung-joo to the left. With two outs and runners on the first and second bases, he caught Park Dong-won with a fly to center field and prevented additional runs. In the bottom of the second inning, Park Hae-min hit a right-center hit after two outs, but the inning ended due to a failure to steal second base. In the bottom of the third inning, he finished quickly with his first three-and-out. He lost a big run in the bottom of the fourth inning with a 3-1 lead. He was hit by the lead Moon Bo-kyung and Moon Sung-joo in succession and was on the verge of first and second bases with no outs, but was hit by Park Dong-won with a three-run shot from behind. He sprayed a high fastball of 153km on the second pitch from the ball count 1B, and Park Dong-won hit it well over the right fence. Kwak Bin, who handed over all three batters later, faced a run crisis with two outs and runners on the first and third bases with a walk and a hit in the bottom of the fifth inning with a 6-4 lead, but he caught Moon Sung-joo with a ground ball in front of the shortstop and prevented the run. Kwak Bin, who also reached the bottom of the sixth inning, finished his mission with a second three-way exit.

Kwak Bin showed a complete change from the previous two games by allowing six hits (one home run) and two runs in seven ⅔ innings against Kiwoom on the 15th, and led his team to victory by taking charge of six innings again this time.
Kwak Bin, who met after the game, said about the previous two games and the next two games, `He changed his mindset and his throwing.'
Kwak Bin "As I tried to throw the ball too hard, my arm-throwing got bigger. So I changed it briefly and concisely. "So the strike rate increased. The strike rate in the match against Kiwoom and today is about 70%. The control became a little stable, but I thought it would be better to throw it like this even if it's right like today." Kwak Bin had a strike rate of 57.6% in the match against KIA, his first appearance, and 65.5% in the match against Lotte on the 8th. And on the 15th, the game against Kiwoom was 71.3%, and the game against LG had a strike rate of 70.6% with 72 strikes and 30 balls. As the strike rate is high, the number of innings has increased and the performance has improved.
Kwak Bin also said, `I changed my mindset, and even if I allowed four runs, I said let's throw six or seven innings, and I could give you a walk, but let's give it meaningfully, even if it's right, I throw it with the thought of being a spouse,' and added "I thought Park Dong-won's senior home run passed as soon as I got hit." I also thought I threw well, but when I pushed it over Jamsil, I felt like I was hit by Aaron Judge, not by Park Dong-won. I had no choice but to admit this."
The ace Doosan has been waiting for. He must have felt that much pressure. However, Kwak Bin rather relieved the burden by changing to the mindset that everyone should grow, not to win. Kwak Bin "I feel a lot more comfortable. Our team was very difficult, but now it's really fun to win one and one with young players, and I think it's more fun because we feel like we have to grow one more game and one more game rather than win one game unconditionally.
