Koo Chang-mo, the left-handed ace of the NC Dinos, broke the originally scheduled principle and took the mound in the fifth inning, but the result was not good.

Koo Chang-mo started the home game against the LG Twins at Changwon NC Park on the 24th and threw 75 pitches in four ⅓ innings, allowing eight hits (one home run), one walk, three strikeouts, and four runs.

With the most innings and most pitches in three appearances this season.




Koo Chang-mo, who was rehabbed in the second division due to injury after being discharged from the military, made two starts, both amid innings and pitching limits. Even if the number of pitches remained, he was replaced without exceeding the inning, and the remaining number of pitches was thrown from the bullpen.

The training part explained that throwing beyond the planned innings could be too much for the player.

So, the number of pitches remained in the match against KIA on the 7th and against Samsung on the 18th, and both had good performance with no runs, but finished in the planned 3 innings.




His performance in the two games was five hits in six innings, no four outs, no six strikeouts.

On this day, he took the mound with 75 pitches in four innings, up from two pitching.

Koo Chang-mo, who blocked one hit and no run until the second inning, lost his first run of the season after being hit by Park Dong-won in the bottom of the third inning. And he gave up another run after getting a double from Park Hae-min and a hit from Shin Min-jae. Shin Min-jae stole second base, but allowed Austin to walk for the first time of the season.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, he was hit after one hit in a row and was on the verge of the first and second bases, but he stopped Park Dong-won with a double play in front of the third baseman and finished scoreless.

In this way, the four innings given to Koo Chang-mo ended. The team is losing 58 pitches. The team is 1-2 and is on the verge of losing the game. Shin Young-woo was planned for the next pitcher.

However, in the bottom of the fourth inning, NC's batters succeeded in turning the tables 3-2, and Koo Chang-mo came up in the top of the fifth inning.

NC explained, `Koo Chang-mo asked me to throw the limit number of pitches, so I threw it in the fifth inning as well.'

Unfortunately, Koo Chang-mo did not finish the fifth inning with 17 balls. He had a heavy hit by the leader Park Hae-min and caught Hong Chang-ki with a fly to left field, but allowed Shin Min-jae to double to the right-center, putting him on the verge of a crisis with one out and runners on the second and third bases. Spray 73 balls and replace them.

Shin Young-woo came up, and both runners sent by Koo Chang-mo with wild pitches and sacrifice flies homered, increasing Koo's run to four points. In the end, they are trailing 3-4 and are on the verge of losing.

Koo Chang-mo threw 29 fastballs and 29 sliders of up to 145km, adding 12 fork balls and 3 curves. He pitched a total of 10 ⅓ innings in three games and allowed four runs on 13 hits, bringing his ERA from 0.00 to 3.48.
