Yang Hyun-jong (36, KIA Tigers) ‘coolly’ defeated the psychological warfare of Hwang Seong-bin (27, Lotte Giants).
There was one interesting scene in the Gwangju KIA-Lotte match held on the 26th. Seongbin Hwang, who got on base with a single after one out in the top of the fifth inning, repeated the act of running to second base about five to six times. Yang Hyeon-jong, who was standing facing first base as a left-handed pitcher, hardened his expression for a moment. SPOTV commentator Lee Dae-hyung, who broadcast the match, said, “(Hwang Seong-bin) dances very well. Is it techno dancing?” Yang Hyun-jong called the catcher, took a short break, and then continued pitching.
Yang Hyeon-jong, who regained his composure, was hit by Reyes with two outs, but Jeon Jun-woo caught him with a ground ball to third base when first and third were in crisis. The final game record of the day was 5 and 1/3 innings, allowing 5 hits and 1 run. Although they retired without a win or a loss, the team won 2-1 and managed to win their second game in a row in the opening game. Yang Hyun-jong, who met after the match, said about Hwang Seong-bin, “I was aware and nervous for a moment. I think Hwang Seong-bin’s play is naturally that kind of player. If does he have to disturb the pitcher who is shaken by that, that is Hwang Seong-bin’s work and duty. He does not get upset as much as possible. “I tried not to,” he said quietly.

Normally, Yang Hyun-jong rarely changes his facial expression while on the mound. But the 5th chapter was different. He said, “(On the broadcast) the facial expression was revealed and so, but if you listen to Lotte’s seniors last year and the year before, they said that it was a task that Hwang Seong-bin had to do. If you think negative, it seems like it’s going to be endlessly negative. That player is down.” “Isn’t it a trademark in itself to play like that? I think we need to prepare in order not to be disturbed as much as possible,” he stressed.
The game against Lotte on the 26th was Yang Hyun-jong’s first appearance of the season. What was more important than the psychological battle with Hwang Seong-bin was the result of the match. Yang Hyun-jong said, “The weather was cold, so I felt a little sluggish overall. I wasn’t good at balance or anything like that, so I tried to throw as many innings as possible while minimizing the number of plots.” He added, “The team can win by bowling with the least number of runs allowed. “I’m glad I can be of help,” he said with a smile.
