It was Ponse’s first game, and he pitched well on an unfamiliar mound. It was favorable for the opponent to see him for the first time, but he was a bit shaken.
Kim added that he instructed the pitcher to manage the pitch clock effectively and encouraged the pitching coach to focus on tempo rather than engaging in nerve wars
with the batters. I think baseball is good.
