He earned his first win since his debut in his last appearance of the season. Samsung Lions Lee Ho-seong promised a brighter future.

Ho-Seong Lee started as a starter in the away game against KT Wiz in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League held at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 6th. On this day, he pitched 5 innings, allowing 4 hits, 1 home run, 4 walks, 1 run, and 6 strikeouts. Contributed to Samsung’s 6-2 victory.아톰카지노

Ho-seong Lee, a graduate of Incheon High School, joined Samsung as the 8th overall pick in the first round of the 2023 rookie draft. Ho-seong Lee, who went through an adjustment period in the 2nd team, started for the first time against Lotte in Busan on the 1st and pitched well with 4 hits, 2 walks, 1 strikeout, and 2 runs in 5 innings, and won his first win in his second start against KT on the 6th.

After the game, Ho-seong Lee said, “I never imagined joining the pro ranks and becoming a winning pitcher. I feel good after getting my first win. I was still excited when I was sitting in the dugout after pitching. I’m so happy.” He expressed his feelings about becoming a winning pitcher.

The first win is a valuable result of consistent efforts in the second team. Ho-Seong Lee expanded his size through weight training and attempted to further refine his control. He said, “I did a lot of weight training in Gyeongsan (where the 2nd team stadium is located) and ran consistently. I tried to improve my ability to control speed and speed in games, and I tried to hit every corner of the ball I wanted to throw. I wanted to pitch delicately. “I devoted a lot of time to training,” he said.

There is another reason why Ho-Seong Lee wanted to do well that day. This is because he was tied to senior Oh Seung-hwan’s record of 400 saves in the KBO League. He looked forward to seeing Oh Seung-hwan set a record on the day he won as a starter. But the junior’s wish did not come true. In the 9th inning, when Samsung was ahead 5-2, with 2 outs and runners on second base, Jae-Hyun Lee’s 1-RBI double added 1 run, and Seung-Hwan Oh went on the mound with a 4-run lead, not in a save situation. Although Oh Seung-hwan did not set a record, he preserved Samsung’s victory without conceding a goal.

Ho-seong Lee said, “I had high expectations because it was a game where Seung-hwan Oh’s 400th save was at stake. However, the extra point in the 9th inning didn’t lead to a save situation. It’s a shame. It’s an honor to live with Seung-hwan Oh, a closing pitcher representing Korean baseball, but I “I think it would have been better if I had achieved 400 saves on the day I pitched,” he said, expressing his regret.

Although the positions are different, I have a strong desire to absorb Oh Seung-hwan’s strengths as much as possible. Ho-seong Lee said, “I want to emulate Seung-hwan Oh’s unwavering mentality. No matter what crisis I face, I want to overcome it like Seung-hwan Oh. I also want to learn the secret to managing my physical strength. As a professional player, I know that I definitely need the stamina to last a season. “I want to watch and learn from him often,” he said with a grin.Lee Ho-seong, who earned his first win in his last appearance of the season, will now participate in the training league held in Miyazaki, Japan. He expressed his determination, saying, “I plan to pitch as a starter in the instructional league. While playing the rotation, I want to establish a routine from warm-up to post-game condition management. I will do my best to be healthy and pitch well next year.”
