'A man who calls for victory' be increasingly reliable.
LG Twins foreign pitcher Anders Tolhurst also led the team to victory. He became a winning pitcher in all four appearances. As soon as I came to Korea, I won four games in a row. The phrase "winning contractor" has become a perfect modifier.
It's not just that Seung-woon is good. He throws incredibly well. He has only two runs in four games and only one earned run, so his ERA is only 0.36.
Tolhurst, who won his first game against Suwon KT Wiz on the 12th, had two hits and no runs in seven innings, won his second consecutive game against the Lotte Giants in Jamsil on the 19th with two scoreless quality starts with six innings of five hits and no runs. On the 24th, he lost his first point against the Gwangju KIA Tigers, perhaps because he felt tired after taking the mound after four days of rest. He allowed six hits (one homer) and one run in five innings. Still, the team scored two points in the top of the sixth inning to come from behind, and Tolhurst became another winning pitcher with a 2-1 victory. He continues to win the game against the Kiwoom Heroes in Jamsil on the 30th, becoming a winning pitcher with three hits and one run (non-earned) in seven innings.
What should be noted here is that he has not yet received a hit in the scoring position. He has a very good hit rate of 182, (16 hits in 88 at-bats), but he has no hits in 20 at-bats in the scoring position. He only gave up three walks and one hit ball. He struck out 10 and drew two double plays.

In the match against Kiwoom on the 30th, there were many crises, but he led the team to victory with only one run (incriminatory). With a 2-0 lead in the top of the second inning, he caught Kim Tae-jin, who was in crisis with one out and runners on first and second base, with a fly to left field, and when the second ball hit Park Dong-won on a one-bound basis and flowed sideways in the match against Yeo Dong-wook, second baseman Joo Sung-won ran to third base and tagged out with Park Dong-won's quick throw.
In the top of the third inning, lead Yeo Dong-wook gave up a chance to second base with no outs with a double on the left-field line, but Tolhurst struck out Oh Sun-jin with a 153km fastball and Park Joo-hong also struck out a row with a 154km fastball, and then blocked Song Sung-moon with a fork ball as a ground ball in front of the second base.
In the top of the fifth inning, the crisis of two outs and runners on the first and second bases came again with a hit and a walk, but Park Gu-hong was struck out swinging with a fork ball.
The top of the seventh inning was the biggest crisis. With one out and a runner on the first base, Kim Tae-jin was induced to ground out in front of the first base, but the first baseman threw it to the second base, making it a bad pitch and a crisis for the first and third bases. In addition, he gave up a walk to Yeo Dong-wook, loading the bases with one out. After catching pinch-hitter Eo Jun-seo with a ground ball in front of the second base, Yeo Dong-wook, the first baseman, also handled it with intimidation, and in the meantime, the third baseman homered, but finished the inning without additional runs.
He confirmed that he is a strong man in another crisis with no hits, one walk, and three strikeouts in six at-bats in seven games in the scoring position.
Thanks to Tolhurst's excellent crisis management ability, the 6-1 lead allowed LG to win the game 6-5, even though it gave up three points in the eighth inning and one point in the ninth inning. As the second-ranked Hanwha Eagles lost to the Samsung Lions on the day, the gap between the first and second-ranked teams increased again to 5.5 games, Tolhurst cannot help but be 'Hyoja'.
