The main character is Samsung Lions starting pitcher Choi Won-tae (28).
Choi Won-tae gave his team a 7-3 victory with four hits and one run in seven innings in the second playoff game against Hanwha at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 19th. He tied the Hanwha lineup, which had 15 hits the previous day, to just four hits, bringing the series to one win and one loss.

Choi Won-tae, who started in Game 1 of the semi-playoff against SSG Landers, who was hit with all of his original Garabito, led the first game to victory with two hits and no runs in six innings.
Choi Won-tae, who took the mound again in 10 days, played seven longer innings, proving to be a true big game feature, not a coincidence.
Before this season, Choi Won-tae was 'Autumn Gye-reuk'. He was sluggish in 17 postseason games with no wins and two losses and an 11.16 ERA. It got smaller in the fall. Expectations were not high because there was no use.
A dramatic rebound that is changing the entire game of fall baseball. What the hell happened.

Choi Won-tae always tried to throw a strong ball to every corner perfectly. Even when he came to Lions Park, he couldn't give up his regret for his strong four-mindedness. He preferred four-seam over a ground ball-guided pitching that enabled the birth of a 10-win pitcher during the Kiwoom era.
He didn't even listen to veteran catcher Kang Min-ho's advice, who has experienced all sorts of battles. Kang Min-ho "He didn't listen to me during the regular season. Just trying to throw the ball hard, I got a lot off. (Before fall baseball) Let's slow down and throw it in the square." That part went well in both games, he explained the reason for the rebound.
Choi Won-tae also admitted it. "I'm naturally a little stubborn. When I got excited, I couldn't control myself"Now I can control myself. I'll listen to Minho and do my best at next year's camp"I vowed.
The ordinary truth is that there is room to fill only when it is empty. I realized it late. Fortunately, that was the most important moment in baseball life.
Samsung manager Park Jin-man, who praised Choi Won-tae for being weak in the postseason, also talked a lot about the reason for Choi Won-tae's awakening. Even before entering the game, we discussed and analyzed together. Kang Min-ho led well. The ball control and command are better than in the season. Even if you lower your ball speed, you are a player with ball movement, so reducing your ball speed and reducing your command is leading to good results" he analyzed.
a time when the 150km range was ridiculous. By reducing the speed of four-seam and two-seam fastballs, the maximum is only 149km, and Kang Min-ho puts a mitt in the middle, but hitters have difficulty getting a positive hit. Why is that.

The value of six pitches is above average. Nor does it concentrate on a particular type of pitch. It is equipped with a wide range of weapons that can attack the top, bottom, left, and right. Two-seam, change-up, slider, and cutter are opposite trajectories that target left and right. The rising four core, falling cutter, and curve are weapons that target up and down. There's even a movement. This is why it is difficult to get a straight hit even if it looks normal.
Since the angle of change is good and the movement of the two-seam is good, the answer from the beginning was to look at the center and throw.
If you throw it without any strength, the ball naturally bends up, down, left and right, making it a free corner walk.
This is why in the past, he tried to throw hard into the corner with a lot of strength in his shoulder, but he allowed free on-base hits such as walks, or was constantly beaten by the aim of the ball count. Now, if you want to target Choi Won-tae, you have no choice but to gamble with 1/6 probability.

From the semi-playoff, he threw two games in trance.
As I threw just looking at Kang Min-ho's meat in the middle, it was followed by a perfect two wins and praise.
Choi Won-tae threw according to Min-ho's signature without thinking. Minho led us well. It's all thanks to Minho. I want to buy food"He repeatedly emphasized that it was thanks to the catcher.
As it turns out, Choi Won-tae is a special talent that he originally had. After wandering for a long time like a maze in the fight against himself, he returns and stands in front of a mirror. In front of him, there was a 'special pitcher' who was as strong as Won Tae-in. Choi Won-tae's heyday began to be brilliant autumn and young.
As the youngest FA, he is just 28 years old and a young pitcher with a long way to go before his prime. Not only the LG Twins, who let go of their hands amid disappointment, but all clubs who have been willing to recruit are hitting the ground with belated regret that they missed the league's top native selection.
rediscovery of undervalued blue-chip stocks. I paid my price only in the fall. It's service time from now on.
