Tampa Bay and Wildcard second leg pick, target minimum weight
“The climbing order doesn’t matter … I’m in great shape”
The Toronto Blue Jays of American Professional Baseball (MLB) lost in the first game of the American League Wild Card Series (ALWC, 3rd best, 2nd best) against the Tampa Bay Race, while Ryu Hyun-jin, who started as starter in the second game, he got heavier.
Toronto lost 1-3 in the Tampa Bay race in the first leg of the American League Wildcard Series held at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, USA on the 30th (Korean time). Consequently, Toronto’s fall baseball hopes were on the shoulders of Toronto ace Hyun-jin Ryu, 33, who started the second game at the same location on October 1 at 5 a.m.
Ryu Hyun-jin gave a video interview with a local media on the 30th (Korean time), where the first game of the American Pro Baseball American League Wild Card series was played against the Tampa Bay Race.
Recently, in the US and Canada, a heated debate arose when Toronto ace Hyun-jin Ryu was announced as the starter for the second game in the Wild Card series. This is because there were critical voices that Toronto’s decision to write the most obvious pitcher in Game 2 was pointless.
In the midst of this, Ryu Hyun-jin said in an interview that day, “The order of the appearances is not important. The players only think they are going to win. “I am in very good shape now. He was perfectly prepared to launch tomorrow. “
Ryu Hyun-jin made his debut against the New York Yankees on September 25 and threw 100 balls, his most personal this season, with 5 hits in 7 innings and no touchdowns. Before the postseason, he announced a green light as an ace.
Ryu Hyun-jin’s performance this season is 5-2 with an average ERA of 2.69. On Day 4 of this year, he did a good job with an average of 2.74 wins and a game ERA. In the opening game, after taking a break on Day 5, he pitched better with an ERA of 3-2 and 2.29.
Ryu Hyun-jin said, “In the majors, starting pitchers usually take 4 days off and start playing, but if they take another day off, they seem to have improved a bit.”
Toronto coach Charlie Monteyo also said, “The goal of the series is to win two games first. It’s reasonable enough to put our ace Hyun-jin Ryu in the middle of the series.”
Ryu Hyun-jin said, “This second game is very important. The postseason is a short fight. Players prepare for the game with the idea of winning unconditionally. I also.”
He continued: “It’s good to win the first leg in the first match of the third match, but there is no law to eliminate it with a second loss in a row just because you lose once. He stressed that it is important to win two first.
Ryu Hyun-jin also said, “In the postseason, the condition of the day is the most important. It’s important to pitch an inning and an inning well without looking for a long postseason. “
Meanwhile, Ryu Hyun-jin faced Tampa Bay twice in this year’s regular season. In the opening game on July 25, he was slow with 4 hits and 3 runs in 4 innings, but on August 23 it was a good fight with 3 runs and 3 runs in 5 innings.
