At the first game of the regular season against the NC Dinos of the "2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League" held at NC Park on Sunday, pitcher Baek took the mound as relief pitcher in the bottom of the seventh inning. He allowed two strikeouts and one walk during the ⅔ innings, contributing to his team's 8-4 win. Keeping the crisis at bay, Baek became the winning pitcher.
Baek took the mound at the final destination of the game. He took the mound at the bottom of the seventh inning with 4-4 thin ice games, following Kim Jin-seong, a relief pitcher with one out and runners on the first and second bases. Kim Jin-seong lost two runs, tying the game. Baek had to calm down the mood of NC`s batters.
In addition, Baek lived up to 100 percent of LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop's expectations by displaying good pitching. He garnered Matt Davidson, the first batter, with swing and strikeouts, and raised an out count. He allowed a walk to Park Gun-woo with two outs and runners on the first and second bases, but he handled the follow-up hitter Kim Hyung-joon with a strikeout to prevent additional runs.
After getting out of the woods, LG scored consecutive runs in the top of the eighth and bottom of the ninth inning to throw a knockout punch of 8-4. Bad pitching by Baek Seung-hyun, a firefighter, greatly helped LG.
Coach Yeom applauded generously after the game, saying, "The driving force of the victory is that Baek Seung-hyun did not turn over the flow of the game by preventing the crisis well in the bottom of the seventh inning."
Baek Seung-hyun has made a desperate effort this season. He made remarkable contributions to winning the title in the 2023 season with a combined record of 2 wins, 11 holds, 3 saves, 40 innings with 30 strikeouts and an earned run average of 1.58, but suffered a sharp slump in the following year with a record of 14 strikeouts and an earned run average of 9.11 in 36 games with 2 wins, 1 loss, 2 holds, 2 saves and 26 ⅔ innings.
He also changed his jersey number, dreaming of a rebound. He returned to No. 61 in the 2023 season from No. 18 last year, when he used career high, and made a determination to start anew. In the spring camp, he was praised as "the best pitcher during the camp" recognized by manager Yeom, but he was unable to accompany him to the actual camp in Okinawa, Japan, due to symptoms of muscle clumping in his right arm. Although he received a lot of expectations, he suffered from slow start due to injury.
Baek Seung-hyun joined the opening entry immediately after taking the mound in the Futures League, but failed to show an effective pitch. On the 23rd, his first appearance of the season, he was shaken by 0 innings of two hits, one walk and one run, failing to catch any outcount against the Lotte Giants in Jamsil. He didn't get off to a good start, but he immediately shook it off and showed a reversal pitching to erase the bases-loaded crisis on the 28th. It was a winning pitch that manager Yeom expected.
Currently, the LG bullpen is called the team's only weakness. This is because all key agents such as Jang Hyun-sik (right foot injury), Yoo Young-chan (right elbow injury), and Ham Deok-joo (left elbow injury) have left the team. Baek Seung-hyun, Kim Jin-sung, Park Myung-geun, and Kim Kang-ryul should do their part.
In this situation, Baek Seung-hyun's good pitching is inevitably welcome. Attention is focusing on whether Baek Seung-hyun, who performed as well as coach Yeom expected, will continue his good pitching for the rest of the season.
