Another failed attempt to win 2 games.

FA 'Man of KRW 7.8 billion' Um Sang-baek was replaced early once again due to his sluggish performance.

Um Sang-baek started against the KIA Tigers at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 9th.




It's a very important game for you and the team.

Um Sang-baek signed an FA contract worth a total of 7.8 billion won with Hanwha ahead of this season. However, he had a 1-6 record and a 6.23 ERA before this game. The only victory was against the NC Dinos on April 18. In the next 10 games, he had only three losses. There were also many sluggish games against Noddish, and there was only one pitch over six innings. I had to erase the trauma of this 'winless' as soon as possible.

It was important for the team as well. It is the last three consecutive games in the first half of the year to be played after securing the first win in 33 years. The opponent is the strong team KIA Tigers. Before the All-Star break, it was important to clearly open the gap with KIA. He had to continue his rise by winning the first game of three consecutive games a day ago. The team was trying to win five games in a row.




The start of the first inning was excellent. He struck out two and made a three-out inning.

However, his control suddenly began to shake from the second inning. He gave up back-to-back walks to leaders Wisdom and Kim Seok-hwan, shaking greatly. And Han Jun-su got a hit and loaded the bases. Kim Ho-ryeong was caught with an infield fly and scored zero, but he allowed a walk to Kim Kyu-sung again and lost a point. He also gave up a sacrifice fly RBI to Choi Won-joon.

The third inning was a rollercoaster ride that resulted in three outs and innings. However, he had to leave the mound without completing the fourth inning. After one out, he was hit by Kim Ho-ryeong and an RBI double by Kim Kyu-sung. With the bullpen ordered to mobilize, Um Sang-baek was replaced under the bench's judgment that more runs could make the game difficult. Fortunately, Cho Dong-wook finished the inning without additional runs, and Um Sang-baek's runs were only three points. Three hits, four walks, three strikeouts and three runs in three ⅓ innings. The maximum fastball speed was 147 kilometers, throwing a total of 71 balls.
