LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop spoke negatively about the intermediate input of foreign pitcher Detrick N.S.
Asked about Ence's bullpen injection ahead of the second playoff game against the Samsung Lions at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 15th, manager Yeom said, `I'll let him throw about two innings in the 10th inning instead of the front one"If it's not an unavoidable situation, I'd like to let him rest and throw it" he said.
When the second round of the PO, which was originally scheduled to be held on the 14th, was canceled due to rain, LG turned Detrick Ens, who was expected to start the second round, to the fourth round and announced Son Joo-young as the second round. Ence started Game 4 of the semi-playoff against KT Wiz on the 9th. At that time, he threw 72 pitches and became a losing pitcher with six hits (one home run) and four runs in three ⅓ innings. After that, if you go to the fourth round of PO scheduled for the 18th, you will have a long rest of 8 days.
Yeom said, `Firstly, I think Game 4 is important, too"It may affect the next series as well."He revealed the first reason why he didn't want to use Ence as a bullpen." The second is because the flow is not good in the quasi-PO.
Coach Yeom might have thought of pulling it if it were the same trend as Lim Chan-kyu. However, if I thought the game that Ence threw went well and it was a clear card, I would pull it and use it, but the flow was not good, so if I am leading, I will deal with the current winning team."
As Ence's selection for Game 4 is confirmed, Lim Chan-kyu will naturally start Game 3.
The timing of Hernández's introduction, which is the final step, is also determined by the situation. Manager Yeom said, `Hernandez took three days off and tomorrow is a day off, so I think two innings will be possible. "I have to look at the condition again in Game 3," he said. "I hope Son Joo-young throws 6 innings well." From the 7th inning, I would like to use the middle and finish with Hernandez. If there is a crisis depending on the margin or the situation, Hernandez may come out early."
