LG Twins Lim Chan-gyu provided reliable after-sales service to his student. The disciple who retakes the lecture said that he achieved satisfactory results in practice and expressed his gratitude over the phone. Lim Chan-gyu revealed that he provided after-sales service for the curve to Lee Jeong-yong, the ‘new rookie’. In an interview with reporters on the 17th, Lim Chan-kyu revealed a recent anecdote about teaching Lee Jung-yong how to curve.
Lee Jung-yong changed his position from the bullpen to the starter in the second half of the first half. Lee Jeong-yong, who had pitched only as a bullpen pitcher since his debut, planned to pitch as a starter after enlisting in Sangmu next year. Lee Jeong-yong, who made his first start against the Lotte Giants on May 25, said he learned the curve from Lim Chan-gyu ahead of his second start against KIA on the 2nd. However, the curve learned from Lim Chan-kyu was not useful in practice.
However, Lim Chan-gyu said that after receiving Lee Jung-yong’s curve during the All-Star break, he identified the problem and immediately started after-sales service. Lim Chan-gyu said, “Yesterday (16th) was a day off, but I played catch with Lee Jung-yong, and I got the curve and knew the cause.” Because the ball came quickly, it arrived before the curve rotation was complete, so the drop was small.
Lim Chan-gyu said, “It was a ball that was almost not a curve. It was a ridiculous ball, a curve without basics.” 토토 “If a beomta came out with that ball, it must be said that the hitter was bad, not because the ball was good,” he said, saying that his proficiency in curves was low. He immediately went into correction and it worked. Lim Chan-gyu said, “I made a correction and threw the ball slowly, and the ball fell from 12 o’clock to 6 o’clock” and solved the problem.
It was said that it worked in practice as well as in practice. Lee Jung-yong started on the morning of the 17th in a practice game against the Doosan Bears at LG Champions Park in Icheon, and recorded 4 hits, 1 walk, 6 strikeouts and no runs in 5 innings. The number of pitches he threw in 5 innings was 71. His highest speed was also 145 km, showing a stable appearance. On this day, he threw a curveball and got a satisfactory result.
Lim Chan-gyu showed a very satisfied smile, saying, “After the game, Jung Yong-i called me to thank me. Last year, Lim Chan-gyu taught Kim Yun-shik the changeup so that he could play a big role as an ace in the second half. Pitchers who work hard and study become good teachers. Lee Jung-yong is scheduled to make his first start in the second half against SSG Landers in Jamsil on the 23rd. He’s going to see the curve corrected again.
