"I'm exhausted physically and mentally."

Why did Kiwoom Heroes manager Hong Won-ki send the No. 1 pitcher in the team hold to the second division without a living.

Kiwoom eliminated key bullpen Kim Sung-min from the first-team entry ahead of the KT Wiz match on the 20th.



14 holds. Tied for 8th place in the league in this category and overwhelmingly first place in terms of teams. Next, the pitcher with the most holds is Cho Sang-woo with 9 holds. The hold is a record that can be easily accumulated only when the team wins a lot, which means that Kim Sung-min has played an important role in the second half of the game. When Cho Sang-woo was injured, Hong's trust was so great that he was in charge of temporary finishing.

However, it has been sluggish recently. On the 18th, Jeon Joon-woo hit a walk-off home run against the Lotte Giants. In the match against the KIA Tigers on the 28th of last month, Kim Sun-bin and Byun Woo-hyuk were allowed to hit consecutive batter home runs after two outs in the top of the ninth inning. The player who was so good in the first half collapsed with an ERA of 11.74 with three losses and three holds in the last 10 games.

Manager Hong said, `There are many games won because of Kim Sung-min, and he led young pitchers well in the bullpen and played a big roleWhile praising "the latest record speaks for itself. I am physically and mentally exhausted. It's a bad result..."I couldn't stop talking.

Coach Hong went on to "The end of the season is approaching, but we decided that it was right to reorganize before it was too late." After that, it was a decision that I hope will come back and give me strength for the rest of the game," he added.



Coach Hong said "Cho Sang-woo and key players were excluded. We will look at the situation later and decide whether to call up or not." Cho Sang-woo is closed due to a recurrence of a shoulder injury.
