Samsung's Won Tae-in, who took his first appearance of the season against Doosan at Jamsil Stadium on the 29th, pitched well with three hits, one walk, four strikeouts, and two runs in five innings. After completing his duties, Won Tae-in said, "I'm really satisfied," and added, "I was able to catch up to 150 kilometers per hour. I feel good because it came up faster than I thought, and I'm looking forward to this season."
Samsung scored eight points in the seventh inning when it was losing 0-2, and won by scoring 13 points in the second half of the game. However, Won gave a rather cold evaluation to Bae Chan-seung, a high school graduate who inherited his baton.
Coming down from the mound on the day, Won watched Bae's pitch from the dugout. Bae struck out his first batter, Kim Jae-hwan, with three balls. Then, he guided his successor, Kang Seung-ho, to a fly ball to the left field. However, he suddenly shook hands against Doosan Bears batter Jake Cave. He finally walked Cave after a close game that lasted until the eighth pitch. The Samsung bench changed the pitcher to Kim Tae-hoon. The inning ended as Kim Tae-hoon handled Yang Eui-ji's flyout to the left field.
Regarding Bae Chan-seung's pitch, Won Tae-in said, "I gave him a walk and scolded him a little bit as a joke," and admitted, "Bae Chan-seung honestly seems to have too good a ball." After graduating from Daegu High School, Bae is a rising star who will wear the Samsung uniform as the third player in the first round of the rookie draft in 2025. Bae, who joined the spring camp of the first team, drew attention by throwing fastballs with speeds of well over 150 kilometers per hour from practice matches held during the off-season training. He successfully made his name on the opening entry.안전놀이터
Samsung, which needed a fastball pitcher as Kim Moo-shin (former Kim Yoon-soo) left the team due to injury, had no reason not to put Bae Chan-seung on the first team. Veteran catcher Kang Min-ho praised that "something came in" from Media Day.
Won has no choice but to admit that he is a junior. However, Won said, "I always say to Bae Chan-seung, 'I want him to stick to me confidently'. I think he has a good ball. Instead of trying too hard, I say that I want him to stick to me confidently and get hit." It was all the more regrettable because the walk was made at Jamsil Stadium, a pitcher-friendly stadium where home runs are hard to reach. "Throw aggressively even if you get hit," Won advised again.
Won expected Bae Chan-seung to be a talented player who can fulfill Samsung's long-cherished desire to win the Rookie of the Year award. "If we correct those areas a little bit, I think we will be able to win the Rookie of the Year award this year," Won said again. Samsung's most recent rookie award record stands at Koo Ja-wook in 2015.
