Moon Dong-ju, who had a bitter taste as a pro by giving out 4 points while taking two outs on the 10th, when he made his debut belatedly after wiping out his injuries.
He has been keeping a scoreless streak in the last 5 games with his fiery fastball, which has been known since his high school days.
With a fastball maximum speed of 157 km/h and an average speed of 153.5 km/h, he quickly climbed to the top of the league, beating representative fastball pitchers such as Jo Yo-han, Ahn Woo-jin, and Ko Woo-seok.
His fastball rate is over 70%, and he's confident enough to throw 19 out of 20 pitches only as a fastball two days ago.
In particular, he overwhelms batters with a powerful fastball that doubled his power by hitting a high RBI of 181.8cm, which is more than 10cm higher than the domestic average.
[Moon Dong-ju/Hanwha: First of all, I think he is throwing more carefully about how to deal with batters rather than focusing on restraint.]
While new hitters such as Samsung Lee Jae-hyun and Kiwoom Park Chan-hyeok are showing off their prominence, Moon Dong-ju, a belated addition, is rapidly emerging as a candidate for the Rookie of the Year. While doing so, the hottest newcomer party is unfolding than any other year.
