The foreign pitcher who was struggling was shaken by the opposition coach's protest.

LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop made a request to confirm fraudulent pitches that are rarely seen in the KBO League. SSG Landers' foreign pitcher Mitch White came out of nowhere in a crisis.

The situation was like this. The match against SSG took place at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 15th. In the top of the sixth inning, trailing 0-2, Choi Won-young's left-handed hit followed by Shin Min-jae's infield hit in front of the pitcher, resulting in a chance for the first and second bases with no outs.




Chances continue to the top batting line, and LG can expect a tie or even a reversal.

At this time, manager Yeom suddenly left the dugout and approached the referee. While talking about something, the shape of putting both hands together seemed to refer to the posture in the set position. I was wondering if there was a possibility of balking, but no.

The referee went to White and looked like he was looking at his glove, and White made a gesture showing both hands. It was as if I didn't have anything. The referee completed the confirmation and sent an autograph to coach Yeom, and coach Yeom also confirmed it with an OK signature.

against LG-SSG at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 15th. Choi Won-young scores in the top of the sixth inning with one out and Austin's bases loaded. Incheon = Reporter Jeong Jae-geun cjg@sportschosun.com /2025.8.15/
On the broadcast screen, White showed the movement of touching the glove with his right hand during pitching. It can be said that manager Yeom suspected an illegal pitch after seeing this scene.

However, this request shook White as a result.

White threw three consecutive balls against Moon. After that, he threw two strikes to make a full count, but in the end, the seventh curve became a ball and loaded the bases with no outs. And with Austin, the fifth fastball in the 2B2S went toward his body and crossed Austin's arm. It's 1-2 with a ball that hits the body.




And Moon Bo-kyung hit a sacrifice fly to center field to tie the score 2-2. After that, with one out and runners on the first and second bases, the follow-up hitters stepped down as miscues and ended the inning at 2-2.

White gave up two hits in the sixth inning ahead of the winning pitcher, and suddenly gave up a walk and a ball that hit his body due to a lack of control after Yeom's confirmation of an illegal pitch, eventually allowing two runs and coming down the mound.

I don't know if White touched the glove throughout the game or only in the sixth inning, but Yeom's request to confirm the right timing shook the opponent's selection.
