Doosan changed twice in the first half alone, finishing with Jeong Cheol-won → Hong Geon-hee → Kim Taek-yeon.
Taekyeon Kim fights back
Professional baseball Doosan Bears right-handed pitcher Kim Taek-yeon (19) has taken on the important role of starting firefighter.
Doosan coach Lee Seung-yeop met with reporters ahead of the Hanwha Eagles game to be held at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 13th and said, “(existing closing pitcher) Hong Geon-hee has been asked to wait a little in front starting today. For the time being, Kim Taek-yeon will pitch in a save situation.”
The general consensus is that the transformation of Kim Taek-yeon, a ‘super rookie’ who boasts one of the best pitches in the league, into a starting closer was something that would happen someday.
However, as the existing closing pitchers Jeong Cheol-won and Hong Geon-hee were in trouble, a new pitcher took on the most difficult role less than three months after the opening.
Coach Lee said, “It’s a bit weird to change the finish twice during the season, but the team atmosphere is a bit down, and losing the game at the end has a big impact. I chose the change to change the atmosphere.”
Kim Taek-yeon, who graduated from Incheon High School and was drafted twice overall in the first round by Doosan, showed formidable performance from the exhibition game.

Kim Taek-yeon, who is considered to be reminiscent of Oh Seung-hwan’s (Samsung Lions) debut season in 2005, has 30 games, 2 wins, 2 saves, 4 holds, and an ERA of 2.64.
Hong Geon-hee, who has been active as a closing pitcher since last month, has 1 win, 1 loss, 9 saves, and an ERA of 2.10. Entering June, he was shaken with 5 games, 1 win, 1 loss, and an ERA of 4.50.
Coach Lee said, “Kim Taek-yeon is currently in the best condition in the team, both in terms of performance and stability,” and added, “It was a bit difficult for Kim Taek-yeon as he was shaken in the opening game, but after returning to the second team and looking forward to the results, his confidence has increased a lot. Now he has completely adapted to the professional stage.” evaluated.
Prior to the game on this day, Coach Lee met in person with existing closing pitcher Hong Geon-hee and new starting firefighter Kim Taek-yeon and informed them of the change in position.
Coach Lee introduced, “Hong Geon-hee is doing well, but he seems to be throwing with anxiety due to frequent failures recently. So, I asked him to ‘let go a little bit and throw comfortably.'”
He added, “I asked Taek-yeon Kim to do well so that people would feel like, ‘When Kim Taek-yeon takes the mound, Doosan wins.'” 안전 슬롯사이트
