On the 5th (Korean time), the LG Twins, who set up a spring camp at the San Francisco Giants Baseball Complex located in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, began to prepare in earnest for the 2023 season.
On this day, LG foreign pitcher Adam Plutko started his first bullpen pitching.
Plutko, who worked with Park Dong-won for the first time, threw all of his pitches, including fastball, changeup, curve, and slider, and digested a total of 36 pitches. 안전놀이터
Park Dong-won called for a nice ball, and coach Yeom Gyeong-yeop, who watched the bullpen pitching, expressed satisfaction with the changeup and said, “I think it would be good to throw it to right-handed hitters,” unlike last year, when he only threw it to left-handed hitters.
Plutko said, “I am training to throw to right-handed hitters. When I said, “I think I need to refine it because it’s a psychological part,” director Yeom encouraged him, saying, “If you have that much angle in your first pitching, your body will be built and the value of pitches will be much higher if you improve.”
