Should I laugh at this.

Samsung Lions pitcher Choi Won-tae was the postseason 'Winning Fairy'?

Choi Won-tae showed that there were many sluggish games in fall baseball, but there were not many cases that directly led to team losses.




Choi Won-tae will start against SSG Landers in the first round of the 2025 KBO League postseason semi-playoff at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 9th.

The outlook for Choi Won-tae is not bright. First of all, Samsung's physical exhaustion was great in the wild card match against NC. Samsung is likely to hold the strand in the direction of physical fitness in the first game. It may be better to try to play after the second game without overdoing it.

Coincidentally, Choi Won-tae has a big difference in regular season and postseason performance.




Choi Won-tae was 86-65 with a 4.42 ERA in 244 games in the pennant race. Since 2017, he has pitched more than 100 innings, pitching more than 20 games every year. It's a great fourth-line issuance.

However, he was sluggish in the postseason with two losses, three holds, one save and an earned run average of 11.16 without winning 17 games (six starts).

A game between KT and Samsung held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 21st. With one out and full base in the bottom of the third inning. Samsung's Choi Won-tae overcame the crisis of losing points with a double play. Suwon = Song Jeong-heon Reporter's songs@sportschosun.com/2025.09.21/
Even when he started, he was even more shaken with 24 runs (23 earned runs) and an ERA of 15.92 in 6 games and 13 innings.

He has never filled five innings, let alone a quality start, including four runs in one inning of the 2019 semi-playoff (against LG), five runs in four innings of the playoff (against SK), three runs in two innings of the 2023 Korean Series (against Doosan), four runs in two ⅔ (two earned runs) against the semi-playoff (KT) in 2024, and five runs in three innings against the playoffs (against Samsung). He gave at least three points if he came out as a starter.

However, in the six games Choi Won-tae started, the team has a high winning rate with 4 wins and 2 losses. The game, which was replaced with only one out count in the second game of the 2023 Korean Series, is famous for producing an all-time great game as LG eventually won the game from behind.

Even if Choi Won-tae loses points, the batting line will explode and win. From Samsung's point of view, it is a pleasant jinx to say that if Choi Won-tae comes out as a starter, the winning rate is higher anyway. Choi Won-tae had one win and one loss with a 3.63 ERA in three games at SSG Landers Field in Incheon this season. I wonder if Choi Won-tae can write a drama with a big twist.
