"That's amazing. It's like a high mountain to me. We decided to have a meal together, and that alone is such an honor."

Oh Seung-hwan (Samsung Lions) announced his retirement at the end of this season. Noh Kyung-eun, a two-year-old SSG Landers, is one step closer to being the "best active pitcher".

Noh Kyung-eun expressed intense respect for Oh Seung-hwan, who announced his retirement the day before, beyond personal friendship.




"He has always been in a major position in South Korea, the U.S. and Japan. The place where I stand is completely different from mine. The class is too high, and he has devoted himself to the national team for a long time. I really respect you, and I really want to say that you worked hard."

Noh Kyung-eun is in her prime again this year. In the bottom of the eighth inning with a 1-0 lead against the Lotte Giants in Busan on the 8th, he added a hold by keeping one inning clean and scoreless.

As a result, it has achieved 20 holds for three consecutive years from 2023. It is the sixth record in professional baseball history.




Noh Kyung-eun smiled brightly, saying, `I can't feel the reality.' Then "The season is not over yet. I only take the mound whenever the manager calls me, and I really hope our team plays fall baseball this year," he stressed.

Then "I'm not very conscious of the record. Since when did I start running after looking at the records...I just do my best day by day. As a result, it was done one by one and we reached a milestone."

As for Kim Kwang-hyun, who was out due to injury, "This year was also a great help to the team. I've sacrificed for the team when I'm not in good shapeHe emphasized that "I told him to take care of himself comfortably.'




Then "It's time for us to squeeze it out. From now on, we have a mental battle."

SSG's must-win group leads to Jeon Young-joon, Park Si-hoo, and beneficial No-kyung leads to Cho Byung-hyun. Except for Noh Kyung-eun, most of them are young players with good ball power. Noh Kyung-eun seems to be holding this center.

"SSG gets together before warming up and always claps and starts a day's workout. The bullpen chemistry is so good. We are complimenting each other and instilling confidence in each other."

Noh Kyung-eun "I also trust her because her young friends are doing well. lean on comfortably. We don't overload each other, and we're in good condition every seasonHe also thanked pitching coach Kyung Heon-ho.

Noh Kyung-eun is in his second and third heyday from Doosan Bears to Lotte Giants to SSG Landers.

However, Noh Kyung-eun stressed that `Because Oh Seung-hwan paved the way well, the way he looked at me (playing even when he got older) has changed positively.'

At the time of leaving Lotte, he was 38 years old, and at that time, he turned to Noh Kyung-eun and became greedy', 'I want excessive treatment' was not without my eyes. However, Noh Kyung-eun has played around 80 innings every year since moving to SSG, recording 32 wins, 20 losses, five saves and 95 holds (in progress) for four years until this year, and is still active as a must-win team. It is also praised as 'the epitome of physical care'.

Under the age of one, Kim Jin-sung (LG Twins) is a middle school senior and junior, and he communicates frequently. They are also rivals for the Hold King. Last year, Noh Kyung-eun recorded 38 holds, far ahead of Lim Chang-min (28) and Kim Jin-sung (27) to achieve the king of the invincible hold.

Noh Kyung-eun "When Jin-sung was in a bad situation, he once expressed his heartache. I think there are more games that the team won thanks to you. You're doing great. Don't care about a game, just think about you. I once advised you to do what you have to do"That's how I've lived. He emphasized, "It's baseball that you do your best in your position."

This year, Kim Jin-sung (25) is running first in the hold category, beating Cho Sang-woo (24), Jeong Cheol-won (21), and Jeon Sang-hyun and Noh Kyung-eun (20). Kim Jin-sung once said "I'm ahead now, but wouldn't Noh Kyung-eun take the hold king again this year?" Noh Kyung-eun snorted "It's too obvious lip service"I hope Kim Jin-sung will achieve the hold king this year." offered a pep talk.

"I don't look long. I'll just watch one game today and one game for the team and go straight in the future. If you don't feel well, I'll admit it and put it down."
