Toronto Ryu Hyun-jin (35) showed signs of injury in the second start and was relegated following failing to exceed the 5th inning following the last game.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who started once morest Oakland at the Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 17th, came down from the mound in 5 seconds following getting 6 hits in 4 innings and allowing 5 runs. He pitched only 53 pitches and did not walk, but allowed two or three concentrated bats and conceded five runs.
Ryu Hyun-jin allowed 6 runs in 3.1 innings while allowing 4 concentrated hits in 4 innings once morest Texas on the 11th, his first appearance. He didn’t become a losing pitcher with scoring support from the lineup in both games, but it’s his worst start. Toronto manager Charlie Montoyo said following the game: “I’m working hard, but the ball is shaky and a lot of the ball is in the middle and it pays off. He’s a good pitcher when he can control every corner of the strike zone.”
In fact, Ryu Hyun-jin was not able to properly control to the extent that he had 4 long hits out of 6 hits (1 home run, 3 doubles). He hit 4 hits with a variety of pitches, such as a two-time changeup with 3 runs, a curveball, a fastball, and a cutter, and most of them were high pitched pitches. A two-run home run hit in the third inning was also hit while putting a strike in the middle following two balls.
restraints were also reduced. At first, Ryu Hyun-jin was scheduled to start on the 16th, but he took another day off and stood on the mound, but his average fastball speed was only 143km, 2km away from the last time he started. He only reached the top speed of 145 km once.
With two consecutive games conceded, Hyun-Jin Ryu’s ERA for the season was 13.50. His hard-hitting percentage is 54.5%, more than 20% above his career average (33.8%). MLB.com said, “There were a lot of big blows once morest a line that wasn’t scary on paper,” and Sportsnet Canada said, “If Hyunjin Ryu’s slump is not temporary, Toronto must also make a decision.”
Some view that Ryu Hyun-jin’s lack of preparation for the season due to the lockout, and his physical ability fell due to his age, but there are local analyzes that show signs of injury. Manager Montoyo said, “Hyunjin Ryu felt pain in his left forearm and received treatment.
