    NC Davidson Finishes Like a Fortune… Lee Yong-chan, Winning Pitcher Without Throwing a Ball

    The NC Dinos decorated the opening game with a thrilling comeback victory thanks to a walk-off hit from new foreign hitter Matthew Davidson.

    In the opening game of the 2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League held at NC Park in Changwon on the 23rd, NC faced the Doosan Bears 3-3 and won 4-3 with Davidson hitting a walk-off hit in the bottom of the 9th inning. 카지노사이트

    In the early part of the game, Doosan took the lead with starter Raul Alcantara playing well.

    In the top of the second inning, with two outs and runners on first and third base,

    Joon-Young Park hit a triple to left center against NC starter Kyle Hart to take a 2-0 lead.

    NC, which was being dragged, launched a counterattack when starting pitcher Alcantara went down on the Doosan mound in the bottom of the 7th inning and rookie Kim Taek-yeon took the mound.

    NC took the opportunity to load the bases with no outs thanks to a double by leadoff hitter Son Ah-seop,

    then made up for one point with Kim Seong-wook’s infield ground ball.

    With bases loaded and two outs, Kim Joo-won drew a walk and tied the score at 2-2.

    Doosan took the lead again to 3-2 with Yang Eui-ji’s double in the top of the 8th inning,

    but NC tied the score at 3-3 with Kwon Hee-dong’s solo home run in the bottom of the 8th inning.

    Matthew Davidson

    NC, which had the opportunity to load the bases with two outs with three walks and three walks in the bottom of the ninth,

    snatched a dramatic victory when Davidson hit a walk-off hit to left.

    NC closer Lee Yong-chan, who took the mound in relief with 2 outs and runners on first base in the top of the 9th inning,

    ended the inning by throwing out a runner on a check ball before even pitching.

    Then, thanks to Davidson’s walk-off hit in the bottom of the 9th inning,

    Lee Yong-chan became the winning pitcher without throwing a single ball.

    There have been 24 cases of becoming a winning pitcher by throwing one ball in the KBO League in the past,

    but Lee Yong-chan is the first to become a winning pitcher with a pitch count of ‘0’.

    Doosan starter Alcantara went 6 innings, allowing 2 hits and no runs, but the bullpen gave up the victory.

    NC Coach Kang In-kwon, Expected Cuevas to be Selected

    NC coach Kang In-kwon “I expected Cuevas to be selected… I think Bae Je-seong will also be prepared.”

    NC Dinos coach Kang In-kwon said he expected KT Wiz foreign pitcher William Cuevas to start in Game 4 of the playoffs (PO).

    William Cuevas

    Cuevas will start after only three days of rest after the first PO game on the 30th of last month.

    This is a card of remorse brought out by KT, which is trying to drag the PO series to the 5th game.

    Ahead of the 4th PO game to be held at Changwon NC Park in Gyeongsangnam-do on the 3rd,

    Manager Kang said, “I was somewhat aware of the number of pitches (75) in the first game when Cuevas was lowered,”

    “It is clearly the time for Cuevas to come in.” 카지노사이트킹

    At that time, Cuevas came off the mound after 3 innings with 6 hits (1 home run),

    2 walks, and 7 runs (4 earned).

    Regarding the exclusion of KT starting resources, Manager Kang predicted,

    “I think we will definitely prepare (in the bullpen) today.”

    After losing the second game of PO, KT coach Lee Kang-cheol kept quiet about how to utilize Cuevas and Bae Seong, saying, “I will think about it after winning the third game first.”

    Coach Kang In-kwon

    The NC starter facing Cuevas is Song Myeong-ki.

    If Song Myung-gi, who had 4 wins, 9 losses, and an ERA of 4.83 in the regular season, collapses early,

    right-hander Lee Jae-hak and left-hander Choi Seong-young are scheduled to pitch as long relief depending on the situation.

    Coach Kang, who suffered his first loss after six straight postseason wins, said he did not send a separate message to the players.

    Coach Kang expressed his belief, saying, “Rather than meeting separately and delivering a message,

    simply smiling brightly and encouraging players on the field will help their performance,” and added, “The players are doing their best right now.”

    Regarding the batting sluggishness, he said, “Since the battle for rankings started in early October,

    it should be considered that it has been a post-season for almost a month.

    If there is an upward trend in batting, there are times when it goes down.”

    At the same time, he said, “Since the winning streak was broken yesterday,

    I think there will be an upward trend again in the future.”

    The NC batting order on this day was the same as in Game 3 the previous day.
