Kim Do-hyun started in a home game against the Gwangju Samsung Lions on the 11th and allowed nine hits, one walk, six strikeouts and two runs in 5.2 innings, helping his team win 6-3.먹튀검증
On this day, Kim Do-hyun pitched well except at the beginning of the third inning.
He lost a point in the top of the third inning with KIA leading 1-0, when Koo Ja-wook hit an RBI timely hit to the left with no outs and runners on the first and second bases. With the bases loaded with one out, Kim Young-woong gave up a timely RBI single to the right, allowing one more run. At the top of the sixth inning, he was at the first and second bases after catching two out-counts, but the number of runs did not increase as the changed pitcher Lee Joon-young caught pinch hitter Park Seung-kyu with a ground ball to the third base.
Kia had many difficulties in managing its off-season starters. It confirmed four starters, including James Nail, Adam Oler, Yang Hyun-jong and Yoon Young-chul, but had to fill the void left by Lee, who is undergoing rehabilitation after undergoing reconstructive surgery (tommy zone surgery) on the medial ligament in his left elbow in June last year.
Kim entered the starting lineup competition to fill the spot. He started the season as a fifth starter early this year, defeating Hwang Dong-ha and Kim Tae-hyung in the spring camp.
His record this season is 2-3 with an ERA of 3.15 in 13 appearances. He ranks sixth among Korean pitchers who have completed the regular innings. His pace is incredible as he is the first full-time starter in his career.
Although Kim did not win many games due to lack of support from batters or bullpen sessions in the middle and late stages of the game, he garnered quality start (QS, pitching in six innings or more with three earned runs or fewer) six times. He only pitched once before the fifth inning. As a starting pitcher, he is giving strength to the starting lineup by pitching well.
Kim Do-hyun silently held out even when Yang Hyun-jong and Yoon Young-chul were shaking, preventing KIA from sagging. It is not flashy, but it is a true hero of the brilliant starting team.
Kia's starting lineup is expected to strengthen in the second half of the year. Lee Eui-ri will take the mound at a Futures League game against the NC Dinos in Masan on Tuesday to kick off his comeback. Thanks to Kim Do-hyun's pitching, the team will be having difficulties over how to handle traffic in the starting lineup.
