Ryu Hyun-jin scored a start, two innings, one hit (one home run), one walk, two strikeouts, and one run in a demonstration game against the Baltimore Orioles held at Dunedin TD Ball Park in Filoradi, USA on the 6th (Korean time).
It is Ryu Hyun-jin’s first appearance in this year’s demonstration game.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who threw only nine balls in one inning and ended up with a three-way throw, allowed Pat Balaika to take a solo shot after one shot in the second inning. However, the innings ended without additional runs. In a video interview after the game, Ryu Hyun-jin said, “It was good for the first game. There were a lot of strikes,” he said. “I hit one home run, but I was miserable, and the batter hit it well. Overall, it was so good for my first start.” Toronto coach Charlie Monteyo, who watched him, also raised his ace as “a typical pitching like Ryu Hyun-jin.”
According to MLB.com and Montreal Gadget, coach Montyo said, “I had a good sense of pitching location and command. The command was good pitching as usual,” he evaluated Ryu Hyun-jin’s first game.
Trust in Ace is strong. Manager Monteyo said, “Ryu Hyun-jin knows what to do to prepare for the season,” and said he is not worried about Ryu Hyun-jin’s spring camp.
Catcher Danny Janson, who was in tune with the battery breath, also paid attention to his consistent control ability.
“He’s definitely a pitching craftsman,” said Janson, who launched Ryu Hyun-jin, saying, “Every time he pitches, he throws the same release point. Like Ryu Hyun-jin, the only thing that can be repeated is Ryu Hyun-jin.”
