Hernandez throws 60 pitches, Game 4 or not?
LG Twins manager Yoon Kyung-yeop Yeom says he’s “all in” on Hernandez. He also explained how he plans to utilize him in the future.
LG won the third game of the playoffs against the Samsung Lions 1-0 at Jamsil Stadium on Sunday. With two games to spare, the team immediately put Hernandez on the mound against starter Im Chan-kyu to end the game.
Hernandez shut down the Samsung bats, throwing 60 pitches in 3⅔ innings. The question is how to utilize Hernandez in Game 4. If Hernandez can’t keep the game close, LG’s chances of winning will suffer.
The variable is rain.
Heavy rain is forecast for the Jamsil area from the afternoon until late at night on the 18th. After the Game 3 victory, Yeom said, “Hernandez can’t come out tomorrow. It’s raining tomorrow, how can he come out. I’m counting on that. 카지노사이트 I trust the Korea Meteorological Administration,” he said and laughed.
So, did Yeom believe the rain forecast and force Hernandez to go ‘all in’? “I considered the rain forecast before the game. “If it didn’t rain, I would have split him with Ens,” he said. ”If it rained and he took a day off, I would check his physical condition, but I think he would still be able to pitch. If it rains, Hernandez could be pushed back a day and start Game 4.
If, unlike the forecast, it doesn’t rain on the 18th. “Then Hernandez doesn’t go out,” Dye said.
As for his future, Hernandez said, “I have to sleep and wake up and see how I feel. It’s hard to say right now. I have to see how my body reacts. Of course, mentally, I’m ready,” he explained.
