Jung Woo-joo, a special rookie pitcher of the Hanwha Eagles, is a pitcher who receives expectations from not only Hanwha fans but also KBO League fans.먹튀검증
Last year, Jeon's record in high school seniors was four wins and one loss with a 1.57 ERA in 16 matches, which also contributed to Jeon's win in Cheongryonggi. His physical condition of 185 centimeters tall and 88 kilograms or more was ideal, and he threw fastballs with a maximum speed of 155 kilometers or more, drawing keen attention from the public.
Hanwha nominated Jung Woo-joo as the second overall pick and praised him, "We expect Jung Woo-joo, who plays a fastball in the mid-150km/h speed from soft balance to movement, will contribute to the team's strength in the near future." He received the same down payment of 500 million won as Chung Hyun-woo (Kium Heroes), the No. 1 overall pick.
Jung Woo-joo, who has caught the eye of Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon since the spring camp, showed good pitching during the exhibition games. "He is a good pitcher indeed. Baseball needs to be star-studded. We need to do well when there are many spectators. We also have a sense of pride. I think the scouts did a good job."
Jung Woo-joo, who performed well in the spring camp and exhibition games, also enjoyed the dream of boarding the opening entry. There were times when he was shaken by three runs with one hit and two outs in the match against the LG Twins in Jamsil on March 25, but he played 10 games from the match against the KIA Tigers in Daejeon (one inning without allowing a run) on March 30 to the match against KT Wiz in Daejeon (one inning without allowing a run) on April 25, with only one loss against the Lotte Giants in Daejeon (one hit (one homer) and two strikeouts in one inning) on April 2.
At the match against the Incheon SSG Landers on April 17, Jung also enjoyed his first hold since his debut. At the time, Jung Woo-joo said, "I will continue to play with humility and earnestness," expressing her feelings for the first hold since her debut. She garnered her second hold of the season against the NC Dinos in Daejeon on April 18.
However, he had a hard time in the match against the KT Wiz in Daejeon on April 27. He was shaken by allowing two hits, one out and three runs during ⅓ innings. At that time, Kim Seo-hyun stroked his head and comforted Jung Woo-ju, who was blaming himself after coming down from the mound.
Soon after, however, he rearranged his team and secured his first win since debuting in a match against the Gwangju KIA Tigers on May 2. At that time, Jung pitched one ⅓ inning with one out and three strikeouts, without allowing even a single goal.
Jung Woo-joo, who continued to show steady performance afterwards, had a hard week last week, allowing three homers. The game against the Doosan Bears in Daejeon on May 13 was good, with one strikeout and no run in one inning.
However, he was scolded by Doosan brothers at the match against Doosan Bears in Daejeon on May 15. Following Kim Jong-soo, Jung was hit by Yang Eui-ji, the first batter of the 149-kilometer fastball in the fifth inning. Afterwards, he handled three batters with poor batting, and Kang Seung-ho, the first batter, hit a solo homer over the left fence in the sixth inning. It was the first time that Jung allowed two homers in a game.
In the second game of a doubleheader against the Daejeon SSG Landers on May 17, he gave two strikeouts and allowed no run, while dedicating another homerun on May 18. When his team was losing 2-4, he took the mound after Cho with runners on the first and second bases with two outs. He threw fastballs at Ko Myung-joon for seven consecutive pitches, and countered with a three-run homer, only to see his head down. Afterwards, Jihoon Choi handled the game with a strikeout.
He played in four games this week, but allowed three runs in three ⅔ innings with three homers. He had a hard week, giving up 7.36 ERA and three homers.
However, this is also a time for rookie players to grow up. "Young players need to experience more. It would be good for the team if they throw the ball well when they leave, but there is something to learn after getting hit." Kim Kyung-moon encouraged him two weeks ago.
If you don't get discouraged and throw your own ball, that's fine. Before the opening of the season, head coach Kim Kyung-moon said, "You don't have to look around. You can't help but get hit outside. Young friends are fighting with older brothers. You shouldn't be too greedy," he said.
After allowing three home runs hit by his brothers, this is also a time for growth for Jung Woo-joo.
