St. Louis Kim Kwang-hyun was the first in the United States to receive support from his family and climbed onto the mound to win his fifth win of the season with six innings of scoreless pitching.
In a video interview after the match, Kim Kwang-hyun said he was sorry again instead of giving the victory ball to his family.
He said with a smile, "I tried not to eat as much as possible that my family should come and throw better." "I tried to keep my composure without getting excited.
He said, "I've been eating the rice my mother made for three days, and I feel like I'm using my strength by eating home-cooked food," he said with a laugh.
Kim Gwang-hyeon, who once again pitched 3 hits and a scoreless pitch following the 6th, when he was responsible for 7 innings with San Francisco, said, "Before the game, I went with catcher Molina in the first inning with a ball composition similar to that of the previous game, and then changed the ball composition after the batting order went around once. We talked about changing it, but I think that was fine.”
He pointed out that for the 21-inning run without a run, he said, "Once the ball goes low, it goes low.
Finally, Kim Kwang-hyun sent a message of support to the people of Korea who have been hit by the fourth wave of COVID-19.
"Recently, the Corona 19 situation in Korea has gotten worse again," he said.I want to borrow this space and tell you to be strong.”
