Will you let me forget about the passion explosion in the heavy rain, the bullpen pitching of LG's new foreigner Hernandez?

Before the game between Hanwha and LG at Jamsil Baseball Stadium on the 27th, Hernandez entered the bullpen after warming up lightly with a catch ball.
Hernandez checked his pitch by throwing 40 pitches in the pouring downpours. The coaching staff, including Cha Myung-seok, manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, and pitching coach Choi Sang-deok, watched Hernandez's ball in person.
Born in 1995, Hernandez is a 29-year-old right-hander. He joined the Miami Marlins in 2018 and pitched 159 ⅔ in a career-high 35 appearances in the minor league Triple-A, posting an 11-7 record with a 2.87 ERA. This season, he pitched in nine games with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers in the Major League Baseball, recording one loss and an ERA of 6.32.
Hernandez, who is wearing an LG uniform on behalf of Casey Kelly, who has been with him since 2019, is receiving a lot of expectations and attention. Hernandez, who signed a contract on the 20th, said, "Thank you for playing for LG and I'm happy to come to Korea. As I came to Korea at an important time, I will do my best to win the team by working hard and having fun with the LG Twins players for the team's victory", he expressed his feelings.
