Kiwoom Heroes Jeong Chan-heon (33) became a losing pitcher even after two consecutive good pitches.  

Jeong Chan-heon started the game against the LG Twins in the ‘2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League’ held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 11th and recorded a loss in 6 innings, 6 hits, 1 walk, 1 walk, 2 strikeouts and 1 run.

Jeong Chan-heon, who was hit with a double by lead hitter Hong Chang-ki in the first inning, caught Moon Dong-ju with a fly ball to left field and gave Kim Hyun-soo a true base hit, facing a crisis with 2nd out and 3rd base. In the end, Austin Dean was hit with an RBI in a timely manner and allowed the first run. However, Oh Ji-hwan was treated as a second baseman ground ball and ended the inning without any additional runs. 

Jeong Chan-heon, who recorded a three-way foul in the second inning, was hit consecutively by Hong Chang-ki and Moon Seong-joo in the third inning with one out, and even allowed second base to be stolen, and was in danger of two outs, second and third base, but did not concede by catching Austin with a ground ball to the third baseman. In the 4th inning, Moon Bo-gyeong’s ground ball bounced high, and first baseman Lee Won-seok couldn’t catch it, so it became an infield hit. passed 

Jeong Chan-heon, who recorded a tripartite offense in the 5th inning, climbed the mound in the 6th inning as well. He walked lead batter Austin, but caught Oh Ji-hwan with a floating ball to center fielder, and Moon Bo-gyeong’s sharp hit was caught as a straight hit by second baseman, resulting in a double play after a video review. In the 7th inning, where Kiwoom was losing 0-1, he was replaced by Kim Seong-jin and finished the mound that day. 

Jeong Chan-heon, who recorded 86 pitches, used two-seam (42 pitches) – curve (25 pitches) – slider (10 pitches) – fork (9 pitches). His two-seam top speed was 140 km/h. However, he blocked the LG lineup by inducing weak balls with control and messy movement that pierced the outside of the strike.  스포츠토토

Jeong Chan-heon showed a good fight by blocking LG’s other line with 1 point until the 6th inning. Kiwoom’s bullpen also finished the game without conceding. However, Jung Chan-heon became the losing pitcher as the batting line failed to score a single point. Jeong Chan-heon, who became a losing pitcher in the last game even after giving up 1 run in 6 innings, played a big role in the first 2 games of this season, allowing 2 runs in 12 innings, but suffered 2 losses.
