He has been steadily showing stability in the second half of the year. LG Twins first-round rookie pitcher Kim Young-woo is growing steadily.
Kim Young-woo took the mound in the bottom of the seventh inning, trailing 7-8 in an away game against SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 16th, and allowed one hit and no run in one inning. After quickly handling the lead, Kim Sung-hyun, a ground ball in front of the third baseman, and Cho Hyung-woo, a swing and miss strikeout, Hyun Won-hoe was allowed to make an infield hit to shortstop, but Ryu Hyo-seung was caught on a fly to shortstop at the first pitch and the inning ended.
On the 15th, the previous day, he was the second pitcher after starting Chirinos in the bottom of the sixth inning when the score was 2-2 and neatly blocked Cho Hyung-woo with a fly to center field, struck out his Jihoon Choi, and Kim Sung-hyun with a foul fly to third baseman.
Kim Young-woo, who graduated from Seoul High School and joined LG as the 10th player in the first round, was expected to be a rookie who sprayed 156km of fastballs, received guidance from closing training to Arizona's first-team camp and exhibition games, and played in the first-team from the opening game. He has never been down to the second team and has been throwing all the time in the first team.

The main task is chasing him, but in the first half, he pitched in 38 games and recorded a good performance with one win, two losses, one save and one hold with a 2.62 ERA. He is growing into LG's bullpen pitcher by experiencing wins, holds, and saves. Kim Young-woo, who has already filled one of his bucket lists while playing as a coach-recommended player until the All-Star Game, is pitching more stably in the second half of the year.
There is no win or loss in the nine games he took the mound in the second half, but he has a 1.04 ERA with one run in eight ⅔ innings. With six hits, he has a batting average of 0.200, and three walks, he has a good WHIP (on-base allowance per inning) of 1.04. It shows a much better number than the first half hit rate of 0.276 and WHIP 1.66.
Kim Young-woo, who has played the second-most games in his team after Kim Jin-sung (62 games) in 47 appearances this season, can rise one notch to the must-win group next season if he experiences the full season without injury. The fastest winning pitcher in LG can be seen.
He is a proud rookie pitcher who is growing steadily and silently.
