"I didn't even ask the player" Hernandez's break, Yum Kyung-yeop of Ttuksim...What is the fate of LG?

Will LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop's hard work come to fruition with the `big picture'.
LG will play the fourth playoff game against the Samsung Lions at Jamsil Stadium on the 19th. He returned from a two-game losing streak in Daegu, but he saved the atmosphere by winning one of his counterattacks at home. On the 18th, the game was canceled due to rain, allowing the tired body to rest.
The core of LG's baseball this fall is Hernandez. Success or failure depends on whether he comes out from behind or not. Coach Yeom threw a game-changer to right Hernandez following Lim Chan-kyu, the starter of Game 3, who was forced to lose two games. Hernandez was able to win a 1-0 victory by blocking three ⅔ innings with 60 pitches.
Coach Yeom increased Hernandez's pitching number after seeing the rain forecast on the 18th. This is because he thought that if he took a day off, he could pitch about one inning in Game 4.
However, Hernandez is not recovering after throwing almost as much as the starting pitcher. Ahead of the fourth game, Yeom said "I think we should let him rest until today. I think that's right "I think if I take a break until tomorrow (the day of the move), it could be a good card for Game 5. I think we need to give it a complete break."
Game 4, like Game 3, is over when you lose. Victory is important, but I couldn't help but think about the future of the player. Director Yeom said, `There is nothing wrong with my body. However, he didn't even talk to the player about whether he will take the mound today. We only consulted with the training part and concluded that it would be better to take a break."
The hidden card is Son Joo-young. If Son Joo-young plays Hernandez and takes Game 4, manager Yeom draws a picture of finishing with Hernandez after sending out all the pitchers in Game 5.
