Moon Dong-joo took the mound as a starter in Game 5 of the postseason Korean Series against the LG Twins at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 31st and allowed two hits, one walk, and one strikeout and one run in one inning.
Moon Dong-ju, who started Game 5 following Game 1, was not good enough to overcome his physical limitations.
As a starting pitcher with 11 wins this season, he pitched in relief in the playoffs and allowed two and four scoreless innings to become MVP.
But the physical problem was inevitable. He returned as a starter in the Korean Series, but it was not enough to expect 100% of his skills. Moreover, he took the mound after a four-day break. He started the first ⅓ and allowed four hits (one home run), three walks, three strikeouts, and four runs (three earned) in four innings.
Hanwha gave up the first and second games in Jamsil and took the third game at home. However, he was pushed to the edge of the cliff when he gave up Game 4.
A desperate crisis. Moon Dong-ju is back in charge. But he didn't look tired enough. The speed of the fastball, which had a maximum speed of 160 kilometers, was only 140 kilometers on average. The maximum speed was 150 kilometers.

Against Moon Bo-kyung, his fastball speed of 140km and 146km were all balls, and he became a walk. Later, Austin's groundout gave him two outs and runners on first and third, and Oh Ji-hwan struck out after seven pitches. Three balls came out after the 2S, but Oh Ji-hwan's bat turned around on the outside fork ball to overcome the crisis.
The total number of pitches is 21. The Hanwha bench made a decision. In the top of the second inning, Jung Woo-ju was put on the mound.
