Kenny Rosenberg, a foreign pitcher of the Kiwoom Heroes, was canceled from the first-team entry.

Kiwoom canceled Rosenberg before the home game against the LG Twins at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 8th, calling up rookie Jung Hyun-woo, the starting pitcher, to the first team.

Rosenberg started against LG on the 6th and pitched five innings of three hits, three walks, three strikeouts, and one run, but he was replaced in 79 innings. Lowest number of pitches since throwing 74 in the opener.




At the time, Kiwoom said "We complained of discomfort in the left hip joint and replaced it as protection."

And the fact that it was canceled from the first team two days later should be considered in a bad condition.

Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki said "It's been two days, but after checking today, I found it difficult to take the next mound because there was no improvement in pain."We decided that it would be better to take it out of the entry and completely treat it."




Coach Hong continued "The part with pain has been something Rosenberg has been holding for a long time. The training part's opinion is that there is no need for a detailed examination, and that he will focus on relieving the pain through injection treatment.

Rosenberg is Kiwoom's only foreign pitcher and an ace who has supported Kiwoom's starting lineup. He pitched in 13 games and recorded four wins, four losses and an earned run average of 3.23. He ranks 16th in ERA overall, the highest among Kiwoom pitchers.

Kiwoom, which used two foreign hitters this season, Yasiel Puig and Ruben Cadines, strengthened its starting lineup by sending Puig as the starting pitcher collapsed early and the game itself turned difficult. Alcantara proved the importance of a starting pitcher by leading his team to victory both times with six scoreless innings against Doosan on the 1st and one run in eight innings against LG on the 7th.




Kiwoom is on the rise with two consecutive wins against Lotte and two consecutive wins against LG for the second time since the end of March, and Rosenberg's disappointing injury departure will lead the season to one foreign pitcher for the time being.
