Doosan Choi Won-jun, ‘Draw 4 Losses’ Kwak Bin, “It will Definitely be a Good Day”

Doosan Bears sidearm Wonjun Choi (29), who earned his second win of the season, gave warm words to the team’s native ace Kwak Bin (24).

Choi Won-jun pitched his best pitch of the season in the NC Dinos game held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 25th with 2 hits, 1 walk, 5 strikeouts, and 1 run (1 earned) in 6⅔ innings. 안전놀이터

Until this day, Won-Jun Choi had been in the 1st and 2nd teams and was struggling with 3 games, 1 win, 1 loss, and an average ERA of 13.09.

Except for the first year of his first-team debut, the dark clouds of last season, when his performance was the worst (3 wins, 10 losses in 26 games, and an average ERA of 4.93), seemed to be continuing.

However, Wonjun Choi achieved his first quality start of the season (6 or more innings and 3 or fewer earned runs as a starter) and led the team to victory.

However, ironically, Kwak Bin, who has been in the starting rotation since the beginning of this season, is actually without a win.

He has only five losses in six starts this year despite three quality starts.

In the NC game the previous day, he lasted 6 innings with 2 hits and 1 run, but withdrew without any results.

With foreign pitchers Raul Alcantara and Brandon Waddell both leaving the lineup due to injuries, Kwak Bin’s shoulders have become even heavier.

This is why Choi Won-jun got his second win of the season and thought of his junior Kwak Bin.

Choi Won-jun, who met after the game, said, “Actually, Bin is having a hard time.

He said, “I think Bin is going through what I went through last year.”

Choi Won-jun also said, “After suffering only 3 losses in 6 games since the start of last year, he got his first win in the 7th game.”

Choi Won-jun said, “I was chasing one win last year, but my performance didn’t improve and I fell into a slump,” he said.
