Did the one run allowed in the first inning stimulate you? Deoksu's one-two punch Kim Tae-hyung led the cold game win in the eighth inning with seven innings of one run.

Deoksu High School won 11-1 and 8th over Seoul Dongsan High School in the first round of the 79th Cheongryonggi National High School Baseball Championship and the weekend league King Wangjung match (co-hosted by the Chosun Ilbo, Sports Chosun, and Korea Baseball Softball Association) at Mokdong Stadium in Seoul on the 7th.

Kim Tae-hyung, who started as a starter for Deoksu High School, is considered one of this year's rookie draft pitchers along with Jeon High School's Jung Woo-joo and Deoksu High School's Jung Hyun-woo.

Kim Joon-ho, who scored when Bae Seo-joon's infield ground ball was on third base with one out in the bottom of the first inning, is cheering.

The start was unfortunate. In the bottom of the first inning, Bae Seo-joon gave up the first run with an infield ground ball following a triple by Kim Joon-ho of Seoul Dongsan High School.

There were no more runs. Kim Tae-hyung, who regained his condition from the second inning, tied the Seoul Dongsan High School lineup tightly until the seventh inning, allowing only four hits without four pitches. He also struck out six.

Kim Tae-hyung threw 82 pitches while facing 24 batters in seven innings. The maximum speed of the fastball was 147 kilometers, and the average speed was maintained at 144 kilometers.

While starter Kim Tae-hyung was doing well, Deoksu's batting lineup also exploded.

Deoksu High School, who tied the game 1-1 with Park Joon-soon's timely hit with one out and third base in the top of the third inning, quickly turned the game around with Um Joon-sang hitting a three-run double with two outs and a bases loaded in the fifth inning.

First baseman Woo Jung-an is home-in on a double by Um Jun-sang with two outs in the top of the fifth inning.

In the sixth inning, Jung Min-seo's two-run shot widened the gap to 6-1. He then scored five points in the top of the eighth inning to meet the 11-1 cold game requirements.
