Lotte Kim Tae-hyoung: Prevention of Recurrence is Important
Lotte Giants manager Kim Tae-hyoung (56) set the number of pitches for Charlie Barnes (28), who is recovering from injury and making his comeback, at ‘around 80’.
Barnes will make his comeback in the professional baseball game against SSG Landers held at Incheon SSG Landers Field on the 10th.
His first appearance in a first-team game is 45 days after the Samsung Lions game on May 26.
At that time, Barnes came off the mound in the top of the second inning against Samsung due to thigh pain and was diagnosed with a microscopic tear in the left thigh adductor muscle. 토토사이트 순위
Barnes, who was unable to return in the first half, will make his comeback on the 10th, the second game of the second half.
Manager Kim Tae-hyoung said, “Barnes is expected to throw about 80 pitches today,” and “If the number of pitches gets close to 80, we will ask Barnes if he wants to take the mound.”
He added, “Do we need to check Barnes’ pitching?
We just need to prevent the injury from recurring.”
Barnes had pitched in 11 games up until this day, recording 3 wins, 2 losses, and an ERA of 3.55.
If Barnes stays healthy, Lotte can worry less.
Han Hyun-hee, who started against SSG on the 9th and pitched 5 innings with 88 pitches, allowing 4 hits and 4 runs, is expected to start once more.
Manager Kim said, “Han Hyun-hee gave up three runs in the first inning yesterday, but pitched well after that,” and “I replaced her in the sixth inning in preparation for a situation where she may have to start against KT Wiz on the 14th.”
Han Hyun-hee’s position has not been fixed as a starter.
