Heyesus continued his non-visit march against LG this season. As many as 19 innings of self-imposed work. He lost only one point. It's a huge achievement.
He is a true LG killer. Heissus led his team to a 4-1 victory in the home game against LG at Gocheok on the 3rd with four hits, two walks, eight strikeouts and no runs in six innings. 10 wins (4 losses) for the season. He became the only 10-win pitcher in the first half.
Heissus also showed an iron wall in his previous two meetings with LG. Two wins and zero ERA. He won his first victory in Gocheok game (8-4 win) on March 31 by allowing four hits, no four outs, and seven strikeouts in seven innings, and also silenced LG's batters by allowing three hits, one walk, and one run (non-earned) in six innings in Jamsil game (11-3 win) on June 4. Just one run in 13 innings. That's also a visa.
And he also proved himself to be 'LG Killer' in his third appearance.
The top of the first inning was a crisis. He caught the lead Hong Chang-ki with a ground ball in front of the pitcher, but he walked No. 2 Shin Min-jae, and immediately got a hit to left-center by Kim Hyun-soo, putting him on the verge of first and third base. However, he struck out No. 4 Austin Dean with a swing and miss, and did not lose a point by catching No. 5 Park Dong-won with a ground ball in front of the third base.
In the bottom of the first inning, Lee Ju-hyung's walk and Dawson's double created a chance for the second and third bases with no outs, and Heysus gained more strength as both runners homered to lead 2-0. In the top of the second inning, with two strikeouts, let's make a light three. In the top of the third inning, he gave up a surprise bunt hit to Shin Min-jae after two outs, but caught Kim Hyun-soo with a fly to left field. He added two runs in the bottom of the third inning to 4-0. Heysus' pace makes it look like a huge difference.
In the top of the fourth inning, Austin hit a double to the right-center and was on the verge of losing a point, but it ended easily by striking out Park Dong-won with a swing and miss, striking out Moon Bo-kyung with a shortstop fly and Kim Sung-jin.
In the top of the fifth inning, Park Hae-min allowed a runner to steal second base after one out, but he struck out Hong Chang-ki and Shin Min-jae with a swing and miss to finish with another scoreless run. When I wonder how many innings Heyesus will save. By the fifth inning, 82 were sprayed to prevent the sixth inning, and the seventh inning was up for grabs.
Heyesus had a heavy hit by the first-runner Kim Hyun-soo in the top of the sixth inning. But there was nothing to worry about. After striking out Austin, he caught Park Dong-won with a double play in front of the second baseman to easily clean up the sixth inning with nine balls.
The number of pitches was only 91, but Kiwoom started the bullpen by raising Joo Seung-woo from the top of the seventh inning.
He threw 31 fastballs of up to 152km and 18 pitches of 151km, leaving LG hitters helpless with 23 changeups, 10 curves, and 9 sliders.
Heysus, who had won the most games with nine wins and four losses, won 10 games with the victory. His ERA rose to third place with 3.14, and he is also third with 102 strikeouts.
