'4 innings no hit Bad luck with a strong hit' Ryu Hyun-jin, sortie against the Cubs on the 14th, First win of the season
"Korean Monster" Ryu Hyun-jin (36, Toronto Blue Jays) will shake off concerns about injury and make his third appearance of the season.
According to the Major League Baseball's official website MLB.com , Ryu Hyun-jin is expected to be a starting pitcher in the game between the Chicago Cubs and the Toronto Blue Jays at 2:37 a.m. on the 14th .
Ryu Hyun-jin suffered bad luck against the Cleveland Guardians on the 8th, his second start of the season. With two outs and runners on first base in the fourth inning, Ryu Hyun-jin hit Oscar Gonzalez's 97.7 miles per hour (about 157.2 kilometers) hit by his leg. Ryu Hyun-jin, who collapsed on the ground after enduring the pain and handling the third out count, complained of extreme pain and could not wake up for a while.
In the end, Ryu Hyun-jin unfortunately left the mound without meeting the winning pitcher requirements at a time when he continued his no-hit pitching with one walk, two strikeouts and no runs in four innings. Fortunately, an X-ray examination after the game revealed a knee contusion.
Local media such as "Sportsnet Canada" said, "Toronto coach John Schneider said Ryu Hyun-jin's swelling has subsided." The media said, "Veteran left-handed pitcher (Ryu Hyun-jin) will start as a starting pitcher on the 14th if there is no problem after playing the bullpen session on the 12th."
Ryu Hyun-jin, who returned after a year of elbow surgery last year, lost the game with four runs in five innings against the Baltimore Orioles on the 2nd, when he returned. Ryu Hyun-jin, who had unfortunately left the mound due to an unexpected injury against Cleveland, will start his first win in his third appearance of the season
