NC, which is well-known, also has concerns. It’s Lee Yong Chan. The head coach still shows confidence, saying, “I will go with confidence,” but he has rarely given stability.
Lee Yong-chan took the mound with two outs and a runner on third base in the top of the eighth inning in the wild card game against Doosan, turned Yang Eui-ji into a fly ball to center field and finished the inning, but he allowed three runs in the ninth inning alone, leaving him feeling uncomfortable.
He then made a save in the first semi-PO match against SSG on the 22nd, but was shaken by allowing Ha Jae-hoon a two-run shot of pursuit in the bottom of the ninth inning. He showed signs of instability with an ERA of 19.29 in two games.
Coach Kang In-kwon took a four-point lead in the second round of the semi-PO the previous day and put Lee Yong-chan on the mound again in the ninth inning, even though he was not in a save situation. Lee Yong-chan might have wanted to recover his ball power in a comfortable situation with some lead in the score gap, but he showed anxiety again.
Lee threw a whopping 26 pitches in the ninth inning alone. He turned leadoff hitter Kim Kang-min into a groundout to shortstop, but played a nine-pitch game, and one out later, he gave a heavy hit to Choo Shin-soo to allow him to get on base. Lee Yong-chan, who struck out Choi Joo-hwan but gave up a walk to Choi Jung and sent a runner to score, managed to end the game by inducing a grounder to third base against Herredia.
However, the fact that he did not give up a point for the first time in the postseason is a positive part, but there is a lot of anxiety to use in a seesaw game situation.
NC had an absolute advantage by winning two consecutive semi-POs, but if it overturns the game it was winning at the end of the game, it still poses a risk because it can pass the series flow at any time.
If foreign ace Eric Peddy’s physical condition is still uncertain and even closer Lee Yong-chan fails to give stability, NC’s move to a higher place will also be disrupted. 토토사이트 순위
