I didn't know it would take this long to taste the victory again.

Hwang Joon-seo (20, Hanwha Eagles) pitched as the second pitcher in the home game against the LG Twins at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon on the 15th and pitched two hits and no runs in one ⅓.

Hwang Jun-seo waited as the second pitcher, with Moon Dong-ju playing his return match for the first time in 21 days. He was scheduled to start on the 13th, but it was canceled due to rain, adding to his strength in the bullpen.




While Moon Dong-ju allowed two runs in the third inning, he added two more runs in the fourth inning. He was on the verge of loading the bases with two outs, and Kim Hyun-soo hit a timely two-run hit. 79 pitches in total. Hanwha's bench moved, and Hwang Jun-seo took the mound.

Hwang Jun-seo only watched the game with Austin on a fastball and caught it with a fly ball to center field.

Hanwha's silent lineup balanced 4-4 by scoring four runs in the bottom of the fourth inning.




Hwang Jun-su also gained strength. In the top of the fifth inning, he came up and turned Moon Bo-kyung into a fly ball to center field. He then got a hit by Moon Sung-joo, but he scored his second out count with Koo Bon-hyuk's sacrifice bunt. He then got a hit by Lee Joo-heon, but he was able to finish the inning without losing a point thanks to left fielder Moon Hyun-bin's Bodhisattva.

While Hwang Joon-seo did not hand over the flow until the top of the fifth inning, Hanwha hit five runs in the fifth inning. As the rain intensified in the middle, rain was suspended for 104 minutes, and he succeeded in targeting the Izzi River, where his shoulders cooled.

In the end, Hanwha won 10-5 and rose to first place alone with four consecutive wins. This is the first place in 33 days.




The winning pitcher became Hwang Jun-seo. He became the winning pitcher for the first time in 382 days since his victory over Lotte on May 29 last year with six scoreless innings.

Hwang Jun-seo, who was called by Hanwha in the first round of the 2024 rookie draft (the first overall pick), became a winning pitcher with one run in five innings against KT on March 31 last year, his debut. It is the 10th time in KBO League history that a high school graduate rookie started in his debut and became a winning pitcher. In Hanwha, it is the first record in 18 years since Ryu Hyun-jin in 2006.

Hwang Jun-seo, who started and saved with high expectations, pitched 72 innings in 36 games and finished his first season with a 2-8-1 hold ERA of 5.38.

He steadily gained experience in the first year, but his start in the second year was not smooth. While the spring camp failed to join, it prepared for the season with the task of bulk-up. I thought I had to have the stamina to last a long season.

Many experts say that weight 'increase' is much harder than weight 'loss'. Ryu Hyun-jin came forward and prepared for the season step by step, such as the Hwang Joon-seo Increasing Project.

Hwang Joon-seo, who also failed to join the opening entry, continued to play the starting rotation in the Futures League and waited for the opportunity, and made his first appearance in the first division on the 21st of last month when Um Sang-baek was reorganized. Hwang Jun-seo, who allowed two runs (one earned run) in three ⅓ innings against NC in his first appearance, took the mound against LG (two runs in five innings) on May 27 and against NC (five ⅔ in five innings) on the 1st against KIA (one run in five innings) on the 7th, showing off his competitiveness as a starting pitcher by playing more than five innings.

Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said, `The fastball movement has improved compared to last year. The 144km ball also gained strength at the tip of the ball as much as 147kmHe also expected his future performance, saying "He is a smart and sensible player."

Although he is not a starting pitcher, he became a valuable winning pitcher in the first place fight. Along with the No. 1 qualification, it has begun to become another vitality on the mound of Hanwha.
