KT Wiz head coach Lee Kang-cheol congratulated ace Ko Young-pyo on his third consecutive double-digit win.
Ko threw seven innings of one-run ball with six hits, one walk and five strikeouts against the Doosan Bears in the 2023 Shinhan Bank Solar KBO League at Jamsil Stadium on Saturday.
Lee said, “We scored the first run in the first inning to set the tone and flow. Especially, the batting order did a good job in hitting and running the bases for extra runs.”카지노사이트
Ko, who has posted a Quality Start Plus (QS+) in his last five games (seven or more innings pitched and three or fewer earned runs allowed), was named the winning pitcher in his team’s 3-1 victory.
It was his 10th win of the season and third consecutive 10-win season. He is the first KT starting pitcher to win double-digit games for three consecutive years since entering the first team in 2015.
After the game, head coach Lee Kang-cheol said, “Congratulations to Young-pyo Ko for achieving the club’s first double-digit wins in three consecutive years. He faced the opposing batters like an ace and showed good pitching and crisis management skills,” Lee applauded.
“Catcher Kim Jun-tae, who struggled alongside him, also helped the pitcher with good pitches.”
After scoring two runs in the first inning on Hwang Jae-gyun’s RBI single and Anthony Alford’s grounder, KT added another run in the seventh inning on Kim Min-hyuk’s sacrifice fly with two outs to take a 2-1 lead.
