The number of 1 wins, 4 losses, 5.23 ERA says. It's a normal grade. Surprisingly, Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha) of the world has become smaller in autumn baseball.
Will Ryu Hyun-jin have a chance to recover his reputation. Ryu has been sluggish in the postseason this year. In Game 3 of the playoffs against Samsung, he stepped down without losing four runs in four innings. Thanks to the help of the second pitcher Moon Dong-joo and the team's batters, the team came from behind to win 5-4, and Ryu Hyun-jin avoided defeat. In the second game of the Korean Series against LG, he became a losing pitcher with seven runs in three innings. The nickname 'Monster' was overshadowed.
He lost one game and allowed 11 runs in seven innings without winning two baseball games this fall. He has one win, four losses and a 5.23 ERA in 10 postseason games. He pitched well on the big stages of international competitions such as the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the 2009 World Baseball Classic, but frequently exposed his weakness in the postseason of the Korean league.
Ryu Hyun-jin also performed worse in the postseason than in the regular season when he was in the Major League. Ryu Hyun-jin recorded 78 wins and 48 losses with a 3.27 ERA in 186 games in the Major League. In fall baseball, he recorded three wins and three losses with a 4.54 ERA in nine games.
In order for Ryu Hyun-jin to make up for his lackluster performance in the Korean Series, he has to drag it to at least Game 6.
Hanwha lost Game 1 and Game 2. Game 6 can be played only when two wins are won in the three consecutive games in Daejeon from Game 3 to Game 5. In the home turf, Ponce-Wice foreigners' one-two punch and fourth starter Moon Dong-joo are expected to play. Ponce and Weiss, who showed in Game 5 of the playoffs, are not in bad condition, so it is worth looking for a change of atmosphere.

However, at this rate, it is true that Ryu Hyun-jin's turn is unstable. He lost a lot of points in two consecutive games in the playoffs and the Korean Series. Excluding the name 'Ryu Hyun-jin', it is not strange to be excluded from the postseason starting rotation.
However, if Ponce and Weiss, who play Game 4 of Game 3, break the momentum of LG's batters with strong ball power, the trend can change enough. Ryu Hyun-jin is also unlikely to collapse for two consecutive games because he has traditionally been strong against LG. Will there be a Game 6. If it comes, will 'monster' be resurrected.
