The game between the Doosan Bears and the Softbank Hawks at Ivy Stadium in Miyazaki, Japan, on the 27th. Jack Rogue, who took his second appearance in the second Miyazaki camp, was strong from the first inning.
Jack Rogue, who had a battery with catcher Yang Eui-ji, threw the ball toward Meath without shaking his head once the signature came out of the pitchcom. Regarding the combination of Yang Eui-ji's ball, the best catcher in the KBO League, Rogue focused only on the batter and the game without complaints.
Jack Rogue started the first inning by hitting the first batter, Softbank Downs, to right field with his aggressive pitching. Shouko, the second batter, played a fly ball to the second base, and Kawamura, the third batter, played a fly ball to the left field, ending the first inning with three outs and no outs.
Softbank's top lineup, which has sophisticated contact skills, was also helpless in front of Jack Rogue's ball power. All three batters in the first inning were unable to make a positive hit on Jack Rogue's maximum 147km fastball and high-angle sweeper.
The second episode was not much different. No. 4 hitter Richard hit with a target but was caught by left fielder Kim Jae-hwan in front of the fence. In the following match, fifth batter Ishizuka hit a fly ball to right field, and sixth batter Sasakawa struck out swinging, and Jack Rogue also took the mound in the third inning and ended the inning with three outs again.
On this day, Jack Rogue pitched 31 pitches in three innings. He threw 8 fastballs, 10 sinkers, 2 cutters, 2 changeups, and 9 sweepers.
Due to the smart ball mix of Yang Eui-ji, the best catcher in the KBO League, and Jack Rogue's strong pitching, Seibu's batters did not try their best until the third inning.
After two scoreless innings against the Seibu Lions on the 22nd, Jack Rogue recorded three scoreless innings until the game against Softbank.
After the end of the game, Jack Rogue was able to take advantage of the batter by throwing strikes from the first pitch. This is satisfactory. I also like the fact that he didn't allow long balls and didn't give up on base. (KBO) The ball adjustment is over, too. I think it fits well because it feels like it's wrapped around my hand. It's the first time I've played three innings, but I'm in very good shape. Next time, we plan to increase the number of pitches and proceed steadily with the season preparation."
Starter Jack Rogue played well, but the team's batting line did not explode, and Doosan lost 9-0 to Softbank.
