Samsung Lions left-handed pitcher Lee Seung-hyeon (21), who went down to the second team due to back pain, started to make a comeback.

Lee Seung-hyun took the mound as the team’s third pitcher after Jang Pil-joon and Park Se-woong in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League NC Dinos Futures team held at Masan Stadium on the 24th.

Lee Seung-hyun came out in the bottom of the 6th inning. As soon as he came out, Choi Bo-seong hit a solo home run in place of Park Seok-min. After that, he immediately gave up a hit to Kim Bum-jun. He struck out Han Seok-hyeon on three pitches, but allowed a walk to Woo-jae Choi, and he faced a crisis with runners on first and second bases.

However, Kim Soo-yoon struck out and Kim Hyung-joon grounded to finish the inning without further conceding. On this day, Lee Seung-hyun recorded 2 hits (1 home run), 1 walk, 2 strikeouts and 1 run in 1 inning. At the end of the 7th inning, he passed the mound to Kim Tae-woo.

On the 17th, Lee Seung-hyun felt back pain and went down to the 2nd group. At the time, Samsung coach Park Jin-man said, “I feel uncomfortable in my lower back. He seems to have a hard time throwing the ball for a few days. He has been excluded from the first team.”스포츠토토

Lee Seung-Hyun replaced Oh Seung-Hwan and took charge of Samsung’s finisher, albeit for a while. This season, Lee Seung-hyun is recording an average ERA of 4.61 with 1 win, 1 loss and 3 saves in 15 games.

Meanwhile, in the match between Samsung and NC, NC won 12-4. Shin Young-woo, a rookie who started as an NC starter, became the winning pitcher with 5 innings, 11 strikeouts and no runs.
